Back to Abnormal At Last
Never thought I’d miss the sun so bad. But after 6 days of incarceration, I’ve sworn off junk food overload forever and I promised to appreciate the sun no matter how scorching it grew sometimes.
Fun (or something that resembled it) was restricted within the confines of my room at Cebu Doc for 6 days, further restricted by tube I had in my left hand, further restricted by occasional fevers and chills and other discomfort. I only had Discovery Channel and National Geographic to keep me sane the rest of the day while waiting for company at night. I guess you can pretty much imagine the blast I had during my supposed break.Eventhough these weren’t the best days I’ve had, I chalked everything off to a learning experience and a break that I badly needed.
At least now I learned to value and eat vegetables. I also drink 2 liters of water everyday now. Kirk’s pretty adamant about me cutting off on my soda intake so I’m starting to say goodbye to Coke and Pepsi - an effort which I know my colleagues will support because Lolo will be cutting off on his Coke fixation as well because he’s gonna go on diet. Same goes with Inday who needs to give her hyper acidic stomach the recuperation it needs. Lauden loves juice. So I guess when I get back to work tomorrow, we’re gonna be striving health buffs buried with papers and deaf with boisterous chitchats and laughter.
It was the first time I enjoyed walking under the scorching heat of the sun down the Cebu lanes. It was a h3ll lot better than being bound inside my gloomy hospital room. I would love to leave work behind but I realized I could not live without it after all. I know I whine a lot about the abnormal work load I have, but I think it’s better than being a couch potato with nothing to do at all. I love the company at work and it’s the thing I missed most during my 6 day break, I think.Can’t wait to work again tomorrow!
