Rows and flows of angel hair and ice cream castles in the air
And feather canyons ev’rywhere i’ve looked at clouds that way
But now they only block the sun they rain and snow on ev’ryone
So many things I would have done but clouds got in my way
I’ve looked at clouds from both sides now
From up and down, and still somehow
It’s cloud illusions I recall
I really don’t know clouds at all
Moons and junes and ferris wheels the dizzy dancing way you feel
As ev’ry fairy tale comes real i’ve looked at love that way
But now it’s just another show you leave ’em laughing when you go
And if you care, don’t let them know don’t give yourself away
I’ve looked at love from both sides now
From give and take, and still somehow
It’s love’s illusions I recall
I really don’t know love at all
Tears and fears and feeling proud to say I love you right out loud
Dreams and schemes and circus crowds I’ve looked at life that way
But now old friends are acting strange they shake their heads, they say
I’ve changed
Well something’s lost, but something’s gained in living ev’ry day
I’ve looked at life from both sides now
From win and lose and still somehow
It’s life’s illusions I recall
I really don’t know life at all
I’ve looked at life from both sides now
From up and down, and still somehow
It’s life’s illusions I recall
I really don’t know life at all

sick of being sick

Thursday, September 15, 2005
i haven't been feeling well since last friday.

i don't know if it was something i ate that made me throw up about five times last friday. i really felt weak, i just wanted to lie down. and that's what i did. i borrowed misty's sleeping bag and found myself a little corner in the office and tried to sleep. i didn't care if there were people who went in and out of the room. all i know is that i wasn't feeling well and i wanted to rest.

come saturday and sunday, i still felt weak. no more trips to the restroom, fortunately, for my throat already ached. i had no fever, but i feel that something's not right with me. whatever it was, i don't know.

monday...i still went to the office. except that i didn't really have my usual appetite, i was ok.

when i woke up the next day, i knew i was sick. my eyes felt hot and i had a difficult time getting up from bed. still, i did. i prepared for work. but during breakfast at mcdo with i. and gudang, i knew i couldn't stay at work the whole day. i felt cold and my legs hurt so much. i just went to the office to read an important email from my sister and then i asked permission from my boss if i can go home.

when i got home, i just lay down. i couldn't even sleep. i was burning with fever, and at the same time i was having chills. i couldn't explain the pain i felt with my legs. they hurt so bad that i wanted to shout. i was lucky to doze off for a few minutes, but either the pain or the loud patter of rain on the roof would rouse me from sleep.

it was almost six when i. got home. i was feeling better then. my eyes did not feel as hot and my legs did not hurt as much. my dinner was mushroom soup, fruits and juice, all courtesy of i. [thank u! :)]

the next day, the fever was still there. i still wasn't able to go to work. i just stayed home to rest. i was also able to finish "harry potter and the half-blood prince". by the end of the day, i was feeling ok. i knew that i could make it to work the next day. but i felt that i still had to have a check-up.

so, this morning, i went to the caritas clinic. i got there before 9am, but it was almost 11am when my name was called. and because i didn't have the fever anymore, the doctor told me that what i had was just viral. apparently, there are two types of fever - viral and bacterial. the first one could easily be cured with medicine. the second one is more dangerous, like dengue.

but because of an abnormality in a previous test that was made on me (urinalysis - albumin was present in my urine), she asked me to have a blood test. i didn't know that protein could be present in urine, and if that was the case, it was not a good sign. albumin in urine could mean severe physical stress, fever, infections, or kidney diseases.

anyway, i would get the result on monday. but for now, i'm glad that i don't feel as sick anymore. bad trip e!

there are a lot of things going on in my mind right now, but none of which i can put here. i can't even think of a song that could describe the way i am feeling. that would have made an ok post for now. but there's none.

why does life have so many complications? and why do i often find myself in the middle?
