random weekend ramblings

I am better, I felt. Or so I thought when I woke up early on a Saturday with a sense of purpose and expectancy.

It was one of those rare occasions where I could finally have breakfast with mom (Leon was unwell with a sore throat and high fever) and so we decided to take a walk down to the market to have some kway chap for breakfast. As we walked along, I dismissed the sharp pains in my stomach as the gastric acting up, and I assumed that it'll go once I had something to eat.

God knows how torturing it can be to sweat buckets because of the sheer pain. Our lovely breakfast date was punctuated, and eventually cut short by my frequent visits to the dumping ground. I should be awarded a Public Service Medal for the amount of seats I wiped clean with my own toilet tissue and for making the effort to flush properly.

I never loved my clean toilet and endless supply of toilet rolls more than before. And so after some time, we put it down to the tofu that tasted sour on Friday night. Being the only family member who ate it and the only one who suffered an extremely bad stomach, it wasn't that hard to figure the sad reasons behind my predicament. Just when I thought the worse was over, the alarm bells sounded as I was nearing church on saturday. It would be quite a sight to review the CCTV recordings of me running at top speed towards the loo.

The weather has really been trying and I am really thankful that it rained today. It was such a relief and I wasted no time in wasting it by sleeping in. It was all hot and muggy when I woke up, and thats the reason why Im awake typing all these when I should be asleep.

Finally, Im gonna register for school on Tuesday while attending the open house. I am both excited and nervous. I could shrug off exams, tutorials and presentations of the past, and they're literally my future right now. I guess all that matters is that I focus and do my best- but its all easier said than done!

Im quite tired right now, and a restful week's all that I look forward to right now- and I pray for a equally peaceful week for all of you!

peace,
