Urghhhh....

I woke up today with the best of intentions. Little did i know that Someone had other ideas. I was going to be good and vacum the floor, mop, and clean the toilet. Even, *gasp* change the sheets. Not because i HAD to and not because my mother bugged me to, but because I thought it's be a nice surprise for my family.( when you're broke, doing these things are the only way to give plesant surprises to your family.)

However, after a few minutes of sitting on the sofa, i realised i had a pain in my abdomen. Going to the bathroom, I found out that my monthly visitor had arrived!
Caution: Very personal information is about to be divulged. If you feel uncomfortable, do not hesitate to scroll down quickly to my other posts, especially the video I have up. Thank you.

Anyway, It explained my aching abdomen: cramps. I can deal with those.
I went down to buy some chips and bear in mind, these i've had for like over a year, so nothing new at all.
After eating the chips and for a while later, i also realised that the cramps were getting progressively worse. Soon, I was doubling over in pain. I didn't realise then, that the pain i was feeling, was nothing to what i'll feel later on. I tried to do normal things, involving walking around, cuz people do say light exercise can get rid of the cramps. Well, either i was a chicken or my cramps were very serious. Probably the latter, because I couldn't even hang up the laundry.

Around 4, I kept having to visit the bathroom and i was covered in cold sweat. I felt faint, and nauseous at the same time. feeling that i needed to vomit, i was practically hanging on the rim of the toiletbowl. "Crap" I thought, " Food poisoning again?! But I didn't eat anything out of the ordinary!", because, these 'symptoms' i was experiencing;I had had them before, when my mum, my sis and I all had food poisoning AT HOME.
Exhausted, i just lay on the hallway floor for a while, then had to almost crawl to the kitchen to get some water and a plastic bag.
Shut myself in the toilet, with the bag by my side. Perspiring and wondering what the HELL should i do know. I was also extremely irritated witht he fact that I had called my sister and my mother and neither picked up. I didn't have the Menstrual Panadol, and besides, you need to have some food before you take panadol. Thinking abou it right now, I think I was like, waiting for my body to start heaving, so that i could rid myself of whatever it was that was causing me discomfort. Bodies work like that. Eventually, I did vomit(sorry for the details) and almost instantly felt a bit better. Had more water and just lay on the sofa. By that time, managed to get through my mum, and she was coming home with fish soup(something i only have when I'm ill), and the all-important Panadol.

I'm still not feeling 100% better, my lower abdomen is twinging occasionally, but the fact that I'm off the floor and I'm typing, obviously means I'm feeling better.
I wasn't terminally ill, or even very seriously sick. Which was why I was thinking about all those kids out there, with diseases, and illnesses and i think, how damn lucky I am, that I have my health and that I really should take better care of it, before I'm sorry. To all those kids out there, struggling, or even just unhappy and ill, take care and my prayers are with you. Nobody likes being ill.

On a happier note, I've been downloading songs and do u know which song I keep listening to? Ghenda Phool from Delhi-6. Also, that reminds me, I gotta go put all those Mamma Mia! songs into my ipod.They're got such catchy tunes!!!

Anyway, I'm going off to shower, and take the Panadol. Tomorrow, I'm going to my cousin's house to see her daughters and of course her. And maybe later, i can go shoe shopping! Ciao!
