I'm No Happy Invalid
Oct. 21st, 2008 08:17 pm... is this bad karma for wishing ill of people?
bah. stuffed up nose
and a 6 time streak
of sneezing, someone
please pass me an award.
teary eyes from shooting out my
brains through my nose.
hoarse voice from a scratchy throat
yet I still hear the
flow of water going down
my abused throat.
gulp gulp gulp
stuck phlegm
can't reply but can still move
away from a nagging voice
over the cacophony of my own
symphony of sneezes.
The symptoms are clear. Am sick. And it's always the same illness. Having lived up to this grand old age of 17, wouldn't it be reasonable to have gained some freaking immunity from colds?! Gah. I hate colds. I can predict the next few days or even weeks to be hell. A cold can last up to three months or more for me. =_= I'd rather have a fever instead. At least that gives me a valid reason to stay away from school. Anyway, I suspect my downfall to be caused by lack of sleep and insufficent amount of water as well as the weather, just because.
Life these past few days have been revolving around PW and OP rehearsals. And I conclude that I WOULD MAKE A LOUSY COMPANY EMPLOYEE. My skills at powerpoint are abysmal, I cannot present audibly or keep proper eye contact. And writing reports just make me hurl.
Went over to Kino this afternoon and bought Murakami's Hardboiled Wonderland and the End of the World as well as The Ingenious Edgar Jones by Elizabeth Garner. Yeah, I did complete Hardboiled but there were just some parts at the end that I couldn't fully comprehend. Hence, I shall keep a copy in which I will make sure I get it in the end. Or die trying. Haha. Hero was out of stock... and I placed an order for it... but I'm regretting now! It's 36 bucks plus for the hard cover version! And I don't really want the hard cover copy! ... Think I need to go cancel my order... before the book arrives and they make me pay for it! Think
Piano lesson went well today too :D My teacher wanted to teach me Chopin's Fantasie Impromptu, Op 66 after the piano exams next March. Let's hope that I'll make it this time round. Just so that I can graduate from Mozart's Sonata in F, K332, 1st Movement. And the scales, of course. Normally, I could have learnt the piece on my own... but this... just scares me. So much running notes, and insane coordinations between hands. I cannot even do triplets and quavers together satisfactorily. Let alone more complex formations. Speed isn't the problem, cross rhythms just kills me. I have NO rhythm sense. Serious.
