Back again

And I thought I will be able to update my blog last month.
I had my yearly flu last January.
I actually got sick for like 3 weeks. I was not bedridden but I had colds and I coughed for like weeks.
I use my voice in my line of work so it made my cough worse. I even asked my supervisor if I can work on other stuff without using my voice because I felt like my throat will bleed anytime soon. They did let me give my voice a rest but when the calls started queuing like crazy, I still had to take in calls which prolonged my cough....

It took almost a month before my cough went away. I actually had a slight fever but I still went to work. I was the only one working on my shift but I did not care that no one will be taking in calls because I really felt sick that time so for like almost a week I went to the clinic to ask permission to take a 1 hour rest. Everyday I also bring my own medicine because the nurse at our office does not know anything about medicine. I am not exactly sure why she is there.. maybe she is just a pretend nurse... hehe.. I actually told her I have a fever so my body is aching and guess what medicine she gave me.... she actually gave me.... Ibuprofen..... instead of paracetamol. Good thing she did not give me Mefenamic acid.  Last time she gave my colleague who had a fever and sore throat Erythromicin. I was like.... "WTH?"

Anyways, my cough went away after 1 month. I was even able to climb the highest peak in Luzon while coughing along the trail. hehe! I don't get sick that often but almost every year I get sick before, during or after my birthday I think because of the weather. Before I actually thought it was almost like a curse but then I realized that the weather during my birth month is cold that's why I usually get sick during that time of the year.

I hope I don't get sick anymore since Summer is already near and it means lots of traveling like going to the beach, sports activities, get together with friends etc. I am hoping that I get to update my blog again like before. I had been to lots of places, events, and restaurants that I want to share them all. If only I can just think and then the blog will be instantly posted here. hehe!
