i love being on mc

but i seriously see the value of work.

i mean, if i were on holiday every day like this, i'll end up looking like this highly starchy carbohydrate staple.

today i decided to take my mum's advice and really use my mc to rest so i could get better from this cough with phlegm-sore throat-running nose which has been bugging me since LAST monday. it really is a terrible feeling to be ill, especially when you're not having a fever and you don't HAVE to rest at home (cuz everyone's paranoid about H1N1 and HFMD, which granted, are viable fears) so you decide to be all heroic and still go to work. alright i didn't have a choice at the peak of my phlegm-cough-no-voice stage cuz it was Meet The Parents and i didn't want to be that annoying newbie teacher who would choose that day of all days to fall sick.

but honestly, i'm really such a bum when i get a day off. like the most constructive thing i did today was to do the laundry! the rest was spent watching a home movie and a How  I Met Your Mother season 3 half marathon. hahaha. and since i'm sick i can't even get over the inertia of the gravity of the sofa by exercising. oh and my cough medicine causes drowsiness. which only the TV can overcome. i love being on mc. MUAHAHAHA.
