I'm using my wireless broadband now to connect to the internet at home cos' my modem and wireless router went kaput after last night's storm. The thunderstorm and lightning was really scary and the power went off for quite some time.
I was already in bed watching the Simpsons on my laptop and it was raining heavily, didn't expect it'll get worst than that. A loud cracking thunder made me jump out of my bed and away from the windows. I'm not taking my chances to strike by those lightning last night.
Anyways, I'm not been feeling well again. It all started from the long meeting I had last week, I was feeling feverish the next day and then I got a bit better for the rest of the week. Then I've been sneezing all day in the office and end up with a bad cold on Wednesday morning till now. My voice is hoarse and my nose is stuffy :S thank God I don't have a fever or sore throat to add to that or else it might get a bit complicated like before.
We had our departmental meeting this morning and thankfully my boss didn't ask me to present on HSE. I think I've infected everyone in that room. I didn't manage to go to the doctor either because I can't get through the reception to make an appointment. We also had our department Hari Raya 'open house' after the meeting. The food was ok, not my type of food though and also I can't taste a thing! The rest of the day was a bit boring... but finally its the weekend again and I can rest and recuperate. I'm suppose to have a meeting tonight in COLA, but I don't feel fit to go anywhere. I even turn down some open house invitations.
I'm just going to have a relax day tomorrow and hopefully I'll get well by then.
Over and out...

My back is killing me
Ok..an update from the previous post. Raya fall on Thursday. Thank God for that. I was in bandar that evening to run some errands (not last minute shopping) and stayed overnight at a friend's house because it was too late to drive back to Seria.
On the first day of raya I drove back to Seria hoping I could join my parents to visit my aunt's house in Bear Hill. But my allergy kicks-in and my hand was swollen red and itchy so I decided to stay home. I didn't realise I was alone at home, my cat was sleeping on my parents' wardrobe and I thought my brother was in his room (he went out for raya-ing too). Some annoying kids press the doorbell, inda nampak kali rumah kami nada cucul!!! Kan ambil duit saja pikir ATM kah rumah ku anie?. I spend most of my time playing my PS3 hehehe it was a holiday well-spend.
On 2nd day of Raya, I went to my cousins' house in bandar. My final stop was in Rimba and I took the opportunity to go to Giant as I've never been there. The place is huge but boring. I was having headache on the way back to Seria maybe becos of the hot weather.
On Sat, my sister ask me to drive her and some friends to Miri to buy liquor. So we went and make full use of our quota then head to town to my beloved Starbucks at Bintang Plaza and ends the trip with a dinner at Secret Recipe. I bought 2 books from Popular: one is about the history of the world (very interesting but I know some of you finds it boring) and the other one is a travel book on Bali (cos' I'm going there nxt year). So basically that's all I get from my Miri trip. Looking forward to go there again to buy more books and some Halloween stuffs.
And last but not least, the last holiday... Sunday. Came back from church that morning and was hook on the internet for hours and watching the Pink Panther movie. It was hilarious. And again I was left all alone in the house with the cat, which was of course, sleeping! I don't take naps in the afternoon which is a good thing or else I'll sleep at work. So I'm now back to work as usual. Sitting in front of the PC for 8 hours.
Oh with regards to the topic, I just attended a meeting in church and it lasted for 2½ hours. It was a dreadful meeting. I just kept quiet throughout, just don't bother to open my mouth. I'm at home now and my back has been aching lately and it bothers me a lot. I guess it is just one of those time when you are just too tired and everything don't feel right :/
