Oh Taiwan

The flight to Taipei was horrible, i'm not gonna even lie. I was seated in between Mom and Ferr and both of em took the armrests. It was crazy hot in there but i wasn't too sure if it was the plane or just my extreme body heat. I could not sleep for 5 hours because of how uncomfortable i felt with all the insane rashes and seating position.  Ferr and i was from work a few hours before the flight so it's safe to say that we were completely exhausted. Somehow she managed to knock out before we took off and i managed to stay completely awake and aware of my surroundings. I ran out of rash pills and creams so i had to rely on a random cream i got from the pharmacy. It did relief the itching for a few minutes but that was it. I became as red as a lobster throughout the rest of the journey in Taiwan. I don't know if this is the universe's doing but everytime i travel, i ALWAYS fall sick. I've had these rashes for almost a month already and i have seen a total of 3 d...

Explosion

" it's okay to be afraid but it will never be the same... " Ellie Goulding's voice still takes me to another place. I hope she makes new music soon. - Rashes are slowly disappearing. It has been a good month of torture . 3 doctors and none of them knew what is going on with me exactly. The latest medications are working so that's something at least . - I'm quite excited for Taiwan. I need a getaway.

Weakling

My body surrendered to fate. Since today is an off day, there is no reason for me to try . Every couch i've rested on became warm from all the body heat. I just need more rest i guess. Don't we all? Yana's hosting an open house tomorrow and Violet and i are probably gonna go write after that. I really hope i'll be fit enough to even walk tomorrow. Had a late start to the day. Initial plan was to head to the clinic and go to the library afterwards but Kira and i woke up real late. We decided it wasn't worth the hassle. I've been spending the day watching documentaries and random youtubers talking about their lives. Dinner's ready but i'm in no mood to eat. Everytime i get up, my whole body feels even heavier. I want to read but the words make my head hurt more. How do people stay healthy and fit all the time? Wednesday will be different at work. It was the interns' last day on Sunday. They will be dearly missed. I do hope they'll come back t...

Charlie and the...

I am excited beyond words. Bought tix for Lily, Dee and i to go see him in November!! X

Trying not to drag my feet

Grateful to have witnessed the heavenly purplish-pink sky as the sun was setting earlier on. I could not believe what i was seeing. Caught it on camera but of course, you can't compare the photo to the real thing. Some things are better seen in real life anyway. I've been writing and trying to produce new works but it has been a real slow progress. I need motivation in pill form. We installed a ceiling fan in our room thinking it'd be a great investment but i find myself wearing lesser clothes to bed. Even then, i'd still be sweating buckets. Maybe we should just get the AC fixed once and for all. It won't look good on the bill but imagine the quality of sleep we could get though. Just imagine. Desperately need to get the room cleaned but everytime i see my bed, all plans are automatically cancelled. I've been sleeping so much, it's kinda scaring me. I used to be the type who would have difficulties sleeping but these days, i could just switch off once ...

Cupcakes & Goodbyes

And just like that, my Friday has ended. Savoured our mouth-watering cupcakes while exchanging our goodbyes. I wrote Marcus a farewell letter with motivational german quotes. He's going to do great in Germany, i'm sure of it. We're all sure of it . I'm going to have to live through the never-ending questions on his disappearance though. The kids are unsurprisingly obsessed with him. I'm sure they're going to be pretty upset with the news. Oh well. Is there any way i can skip the weekend? I feel like i have so much on my plate at the moment. Visited Dee's new place after work and it's everything. Extremely chic and cosy. She cooked a couple of seafood dishes and it tasted bomb . I would've eaten a lot if i wasn't so bloated though. It's heartening to see how far we have come. To more better days in the future, if God's willing. Change isn't so bad after all.

Better days are coming

Grateful to be back home and on my comfortable bed. The giant fan is turned on to it's maximum power and it's directly facing me and I'm in between fluffy pillows. I'm convinced that this is what heaven is probably like. It wasn't so wild at work. Day went by real quick actually. I wish i could divide my attention between kids equally though. I always find myself feeling somewhat unsatisfied with how i've handled a class. I'm working on it though. Everday, i try to better myself one way or another. Once again, slow progress is better than no progress. I'm feeling quite the pressure to be honest. The good teachers are leaving to pursue their studies and soon i'll be alone again. Back to square one. Last day of the work week tomorrow and i'm thrilled. I always look forward to off days. Who doesn't? Planning to do some writing with Violet on Monday. Maybe we'll dine at the Thai food place. Get some good food to fuel us through the day of...
