After indancity's production, I haven't been doing much, or you can also see it as I've busy relaxing, enjoying some quiet time with my family and myself at home, and also nursing my illness. I think I was overworked - last term was crazy, and a hectic dance practice schedule followed immediately after in preparation for beyond. my body finally retaliated. It sounded it's displeasure the only way it knew how to - by making me feel feverish and tired. I also had flu symptoms - a persistent cough and thick, green phlegm that wouldn't go away. My illness also robbed me of my sleep - I constantly coughed myself awake during the night. It was quite a painful time to go through. I really hated it when there was a dry scratchy feeling beneath my throat (it's not a sore throat mind you), which made me feel the urge to cough. But nothing would come out. I would cough and cough, and sometimes cough hard enough to induce a feeling of vomiting. This usually happened at night, just before I went to sleep, which made it much more unbearable. Of course I never vomited. That's the bright side of it!

There's also another optimistic way to look at my falling sick! I abstained from snacks during the new year period, so I really had a healthy new year and came out of the Chinese New Year feeling a lot more energetic and healthier :) Unlike some of the Chinese who end up falling ill because of late nights and goodies overdose. I also feel like I've detoxed my body and rid it of toxins! Especially my colon. I've always had problems with digestion and egestion haha. But now I try to eat less processed foods and eat proper meals so that I've enough roughage to allow smooth motion. hurhur. I'm also trying to drink more water. And also drink warm/hot drinks instead of cold ones..I think it helps! Really! :)
