after so long

i've had a sore throat for over 3 weeks (it lasted for two) starting from the day i started my mid-sem break. how utterly sad! but the good news is, i think i'm cured. i tried basically everything le... lozenges, antibiotics, kor teh, ice cream (i couldn't resist!), gargling with warm salt water... and finally my mom dug out some chinese herb medicine from the pits of our fridge and told me to try them. i'm quite sceptical about chinese meds but then i just want to get healed. they look dubious and taste bad but hey i think they did the job! praise God. i just want to eat junk food again... so, enjoy your junk food while you can. as for me, there're 2 tubs of baskin robbins in the fridge and the remains of famous amos cookies (which i bought but couldn't eat), so i have to get well!!

other than that, i find that i'm suddenly very free for the remainder of the week. not the weekends though, i'm super packed this saturday. this has been a strange week... class-wise. so far, i've had two 8am classes cancelled which i did not know of and had to find out by reading the notice posted on the classroom door at 8am in the morning. ok, maybe a little over 8am... i'm usually not that punctual. haiz... so i went back home to sleep for an hour before going back for my next class. yes i can't get over it still. lol. you know how it is with morning classes... they take an extra LARGE effort for you to get up and go.

anyway, so my morning classes for thurs and fri are also cancelled so... yay! get to sleep in. you're probably wondering why i'm making such a big deal over sleeping for a few extra hours. lol. truth is, i don't know also. a good change in the routine is always fun what.

hmm... am feeling happy and contented at the moment. there're so many things that can upset my boat but for now, i'm choosing to ignore them. i choose to be happy. lol why do i sound so emo saying that? i mean, basically, happiness is a state of mind. you choose to be what you want. material things don't even make me happy anymore, i mean, they do for awhile,... but after that, the novelty wears off and it's back to square one. for now, i'm just glad that my parents are still married to each other, i have a loving family (+ the dog), i have my Father who loves me unconditionally even though i broke His heart a thousand times before, my guy who still wants to stick with me through the storm, my friends that inspire and accept me, hope, and all the little things that a person needs to be happy.

now what am i babbling on about... i've got to eat my apple now.
