a lousy wk..

this is really a lousiest wk i've had in camp since 2004... fell heavily sick on mon...down with a fever and got sore-throat and cough.... pretty bad man.... didn't go and report sick cos i was too weak to go anywhere...i just stayed in bunk for the whole day, skipping my breakfast,lunch and dinner...by the time evening comes, i'm already burning!! at 39.1 degrees celsius.....(reminds me of one night during my bmt period when i was also burning at this temp...and no one took care of me, the only thing i've got is a water bottle and a strip of panadol)
FORTUNATELY...this time, i had my wonderful bunkmates to take care of me(coincidentally they're medics too), taking my temp, making me drink lotsa water, taking the medication also... make sure i'm not facing this terrible time alone(Desmond even went to the extent of insulting me so that i might laugh at the insults so i can forget that i'm sick).....THANK YOU BASU & DESMOND..
by tues, i was getting better, but basu is due for release to the society...i mean, he finally ORDed... went to collect his pink IC with him before seeing him leave the camp for the LAST TIME.... i started nibbling abit of food again and my fever had subsided to 37.5...but i still didn't go and report sick cos i dun see the need to anymore, it's not like i can get an MC or something...the MO probably just gonna give me light duties or something which i'm currently in due to my medical problems... so it doesn't make any differences....besides, i get to sleep in bunk whole day anyway with/without seeing the MO....my unit is now at an ALL-TIME lull period...all the big shots went overseas for military exercises...just some small fries around....
my fever was totally gone by wed... but was feeling light-headed(you know? head very light, like there's nothing inside kinda feeling...) and the niggering coughs and sore-throat.... i had GREEN phlegms....not very good...viral infection....looks like it needs more time than expected.... so the only thing i could do was to keep putting lozenges into my mouth till my mouth was numb all the time.... food never tasted so bland that day....
i just have no discipline to wake up early enough to go for breakfast yesterday and today....ever since loh wei wasn't around, i couldn't give myself much motivation to go for breakfast, wash the toilet and stuffs....i just duno why.... anyway it rained all thru the morning, so i can say i had a very sound sleep in the morning....so much so that i ALMOST missed my lunch too...(well it didn't make much difference cos i didn't eat much of the food...still a lack of appetite) we got to bookout early in the end cos there's pretty much nothing to do... and tmr's Good Friday, so off we go!! poor me still has to go back camp sunday to do my wkend duty...haiz...
anyway 1 word simply summarises my 4 wkdays in camp....SICK~ haha....
