star behind the sky

Today, I am not feeling well. I got cold two days ago and felt sick at yesterday morning. As very lazy to go to the doctor, I went to the office, instead, and working, finishing my jobs with huge efforts to against the running hot eyes, the running nose, and rough and painful throat . Keying two lines of code, wiping out the streaming liquid from the nose with a tissue, trying to clear my throat with a husky sound, thinking and keying again. I was really busy the whole day. The nostril started to feel hurt as teared by rushing so many time with the tissues. Every time I sneezed, I reluctantly said sorry in whisper, and everybody pretended as it was nothing. I felt the whole body was cold for a second or two then went normal.

Though it was sunny outside and the temperature was around 20° C inside by the air conditioner. I was very cold like 5° C, seemingly my hand were going to freeze. This kind of cold is totally different from the one we enjoy in winter. I had to drink several cup of hot water to make the body warmed. Among the worse, it was one that the air conditioner was right above my head. I opened the Winamp player, chose some of my favorite songs randomly, and followed them to be looked like I was fine. It is a Friday and I did not want it to be a bad day. But sadly it did.

Every time I feel sick, I am thinking of making exercise with a good understanding of the value of health, just like others. I am thin but healthy and robust originally, but after years of careless living for the health and getting older, now my body is starting to change to be weak. Since I got a job as a programmer few months after the final year exam in UCSM, most of my time was used in front of the 14", 15", 17" computer screens. As I have been living in Virtual World for 4 years now I almost forget about hiking, making unsmooth trips around the rural areas, playing energetic games with my friends. All these are just a sweet memory for me now. All what I am doing is typing, keying, reading, chatting, and thinking during these 4 years. Additionally, I have come to wear a glass to be clear my vision on the world. So sad? Absolutely.

It seems like the time in Singapore is faster than in Burma. Months pass before you notice then years come to us silently. I do not feel sad as it is out of our hands and we have to enjoy every moment - whatever it is 16 years old or 40 years old.

Well, it is better of doing than saying - let's avoid wasting the time.
Be a great day! :)
