Falling Sick? Yeah ;p

Believe it or not, this blog wouldn't exist if not i feel sick last Sunday. Maybe the fever addled my brain and I started this blog. Lol.... Anyhow.

Started having nose block on Sat night, and got the feverish feeling in church. Well, made through it, and attend my choir practice after that, and when I know dead certain I'm having fever. Thank God that my voice is still intact and able to go through the vocals practice, choral practice, and the year's audition. Crap, bet I disappointed my choir teacher for doing badly in calculating my timing during sight reading and sight singing despite having a quite high qualification in music theory. =.=

The new year's first choral practise started off with learning a new song Faithful I Will Be by Cindy Berry from a new christian choral music compilation titled DOXA by Singapore Bible Conference. Well, try singing a hymn or choral song when you are sick. The lyrics and the music really really mean more than it seems in normal circumstances. Maybe this is God's promise that he'll comfort and lead those in need. Thought I'll be crying after singing, but I didn't, don't wanna embarrass myself in front of my team.

When I reach home from practise, gosh, the only thing I can do is just sleep and sleep, until my back aches. My parents called, nagged about it as usual, and made sure I went to see a doctor the next day, in which I did. Wow, the medical fees here are quite expensive, well, relatively compared to my hometown's. RM55 and gave 6 different kinds of medicine pills! Now I understand the saying of some Singaporeans, "Better be dead than sick", cause the medical bills is high over there. Lol...

The idea of having this blog came after I came back from the clinic, and felt the urge to write out everything I felt. And thus, the blog, along with 2 posts and the chat box on the left came out in less than one hour. Surprised by myself, I actually can write a fair bit of stuff.

Tuesday, still feeling not so well, but able to go for a 3 hours class in the afternoon. I hope I could remain as class representative this semester, but too bad, someone else from another group volunteered for the post, while I chickened out, mainly because I don't feel my classmates wanting to back me up. Well, I did my best for the class all the while, never extra-charge or syphon off class funds, do all those lifting and carrying around without complain, getting the attendance on time most of the time, reaching out to those people who doesn't seem to mix around with the bigger cliques and lonely..... But yeah, I won't be able to do most of those stuff anymore this semester. Sad? Maybe. Ah, and I lost a certificate of acknowledgement from the college to improve my profile later on. But that's still minor though.

Wednesday, most of my medicine has finish, yet still coughing and having a little bit of nose block. Was hiccuping for an hour plus earlier, don't know why. Hope I'll be feeling better tomorrow.

Falling sick might not be too bad maybe, exclude those body pains and the pain of drawing money from your pockets for nothing. I find that falling sick sometimes breaks down certain barriers, like what I feel and experience when singing the choral song when not feeling well, you can really experience God better when you are really in need. Just hope that this would continue whatever the circumstances are, the knowledge and feeling that God is with you all the time.

*cough, I think I should stop for tonight, until next time then.
