I Wana Kick Myself

Yup.. dat's rite...

i wana kick myself in the butt...
coz before i left for labuan, i was reading some of my older entries...
and one of my entries was abt my possible career options after my contract w the airforce ends.
and i said in DAt entry dat i dun wana do sales and insurance and the like.

and i bleeady went to do try financial planning...
so dun i deserve a kick in the butt or not ?

sigh...

anyway... i'm in labuan now... after 4 days of sailing...
of which, i spent abt 2 1/2 days sick...
it all started w this one guy who was coughing and sniffly...
den the next day, another guy went down...
and the day after dat, it was my turn...

i was like coughing and coughing and my nose was all blocked...
and i had a fever dat would come and go and come and go...
when we got docked alongside the jetty this morning, i and all the other sick guys all got sent to the doc's.

so now i've gotten myself a holw bunch of medicine to take:
antibiotics, fever med, med to lessen the throat irritation, cough syrup which comes in a wee little bottle,
and lozenges.
of coz i bought some other stuff of my own... like vicks vaporub to keep the nose unblocked, strepsils and pi pa gao to soothe the throat when the lozenges dun work or run out, whichever comes first.

as well as a small bottle of multi-vitamins which smells putrid but i'm sure they're good for me...
hahaha... seems like things good for the body always smell or taste funny...

hoping to find a chinese medicinal shop tom...
den mayb can buy some ginseng to make ginseng tea for myself.

alritey... guess i'll stop for now... hope everything clears up and i get better over the next couple of days...
pray for me... and i'll see u all in sg at the end of june...
coz i gota b ard in july for my reservist... hahaha...
