okay, i think my health has just taken yet another turn for the worse. began to feel kind of feverish today, thanks for generously sharing your bug yt! so now, my body is ravaged by all sorts of illnesses you can think of, with loads of phlegm making my throat more congested than jakarta's roads, nose flowing faster than the niagara. and now, the head's experiencing these weird throbbing sensations. -.-

and now that paul's mentioned it, indeed, loads of people are falling sick. like, not the temporary illness you get when there's a deadline, but real, solid bugs that strike you down and keep you pinned there. i'm honestly half-suspecting there's some serious sort of vicious virus making the rounds out there =/

i realize there's this insane block of 1hr 40min mega lesson right at the start of most days. now this really sucks. real bad. what a way to start the day. and this reminds me of that ginormous super duper 2hr 20min econs lesson last year. seriously. if only lessons were no longer than 40 min.

funny thing is, for some reason, i'm finding it easier to keep awake during lessons as compared to last year. not that it's a complete breeze, but just, easier. well i hope it holds up.

oh and obama's inauguration was magnificent! splendid, that man. wishing him all the best! now what i don't understand is why there's this widespread hatred or disapproval of bush. i mean, okay he did leave behind unfinished wars and a crippled economy, perhaps things could have been better, but personally i feel he did a decent job overall. i'm no politics or world issues expert, and i can't exactly pinpoint any outstanding, remarkable achievements, but i just feel he's always put his country first and he's genuinely worked hard for his country. decent, humble servant, and deserves more recognition for his endeavour and spirit.
