A pop quiz. Here's an article called Brainwashee or brainwasher: Which one are you?. Of course, I got this from uber




Baby, I'm a song. This is how I see myself: A pretty good enough pop rock song that's being wasted because a) no one's discovered it yet or b) nobody wants to listen to it.
Blogging is actually my way of bootlegging myself (think Napster) in the hope of getting discovered. I'm not asking for the Billboard #1 single status. Being an underground/indie hit is enough.

Get away from me. That's what I've been saying to all my friends lately. I'm sick. I have a cough and a cold, and it looks like the flu may not be far behind. For the past few night, I haven't been sleeping well. The nights are so hot that I frequently wake up with my shirt soaked in sweat. I couldn't turn on the fan because then I'll get chills, and that'll make my cough a lot worse. I just figured out the solution last night: Now I'm sleeping with the fan on but I also have a thin blanket wrapped around me to keep the chills away.
The thing with being sick is that you always get so much advice from people about what to do to get well. One advice I got was to drink plenty of water. i don't usually drink a lot of liquids because my stomach feels so full that I always think I'm about to throw up. Well, I tried drinking a lot of water and, surprisingly, I feel some degree of comfort. Maybe my body is not as averse to liquids as it once was. They say drinking a lot of water will improve your skin. Hmmm, maybe I'll keep on drinking a lot of it even after my cough and cold are gone.
When you're sick (and especially when your sickness entails a lot of respiratory discomfort) you start experimenting on ways to make things better. I had this crazy idea that aromatherapy will help me to relax. So last night, I went out and bought lemon scented aromatherapy oil and a lamp/oil burner. As soon as I got home, I got a candle lighted. Pretty soon my room was smoking and smelling like lemon. (Deep sigh here.) I took deep breaths, thinking that I'll be more relaxed that way.
Apparently, smoke (lemon-scented or not) isn't exactly prescribed for ailing lungs. So a few minutes after, I was waking up the whole neighborhood with my coughing.

It's finished, for now. My obssession with the Vampire Chronicles has reached an impasse. I just finished book 3 (that's the Queen of the Damned) but I couldn't start on book 4 because I don't have it yet. I've been scouring the bookstores for about a week now, but so far my efforts have turned up nothing. My friend kindly offered to lend me a copy. I couldn't take it though because I usually make marks on the books. She might not like that.




Oops! My brother is going to kill me if he finds out. I was turning on the computer just now when I saw his StarCraft cd lying around the table. I got so pissed that I picked it up and threw it into his room.
I belatedly realized that I shouldn't have done that because cds are fragile, cds break. So I rushed into his room to look for it.
And I couldn't find it.
Oops.
