Under the weather

What started as a sore throat moved on to running nose and cough. Despite seeing the doctor twice over the last one week, i have yet to recover from the virus. And i'm growing tired of getting well.

Not to mention that i have a deadline to finish a string of stories for the year beginner segment. So many information to digest, so many questions to ask to different group of people. with my voice croaking, i'm hardly in the mood to talk to anybody. let's just hope that i can resort to writing emails instead (and still get a reply!).

I guess being ill has its upside. once in a while, when i allow life to run fast past me, it is when my body grows weak that i get to slow down and ponder, and think, reflect and evaluate. i was able to drive at my normal pace (60 kmp) amid the city traffic today and took the 25 minutes to simply allow my mind to wander. compared to my normal rush hours, today was a bliss.

No profound revelation though. there was no need for one. at least for now. enough to just acknowledged what i'm feeling and how i can do better.

I hope the weather changes soon though. as much as i enjoy the fresh air that the rain brings, i still prefer the sunshine rather the gloomy clouds. sometimes too much rain can be overflooding ..
