the 3 days of doing absolute nothing

humph. i think i'm cursed. i can't believe how unfortunate i was to have contacted flu on Monday, the day before i got a work leave. (moan.....) i didn't manage to do anything for the last 3 days, no work, no studies, absolute zilch. I feel like a loser. It's worse because i already planned out what to do on Tuesday. To go school, study, do some marketing assignment, go Thomson to buy some soil, pots and seeds, and go Botanic Gardens for some exercise with my dad. Argh... How ironic is that? Darn.
I have to say, the last few days was one of agony. I have had flu before, but none as bad as this... The first day i was sneezing non stop, the second i was aching all over so badly i couldn't bear to touch anything. Today i was so tired from the medicine i was KO the whole day. Bugger. I've never slept so much in my life before. Worse, the medicine bill was a freaking $48! I couldn't believe my ears! When has the doctors' bill rise so much? A few years ago, the same medicine would have cost less than $40. My god. The last time i went to the doctor for food poisoning it cost me $50! The hole in my pocket is growing bigger and bigger...
