hey all! today was kinda alright. this post may be longwinded and boring but bear with me! We had P.E. and all. Dawn came a little later but of course before P.E cause she wasnt feeling well. After P.E as we headed down to class and Dawn's fingernails was like bluish-purple and I was like shocked!! She went back home. Rest well Dawn and take care ok. (:
Then in class I started sneezing repeatedly. I think I got flu. So one time, during Chemistry lesson (thank god it was after the presentation) I sneezed and my skirt broke! As in the hook! I totally can't believe it. Did I really sneeze THAT hard?? So I asked Nissi from the other end of the class for safety pin but she didn't have! Thankfully Sharmaine has it. Thanks Sharmaine. Appreciate it. (((: So headed down to the toilet to fix it.
When I reached Bukit Panjang Govt High, things turned for the worse. I continued sneezing and sneezing and ran out of tissue. So had to ask from my other classmates and one part when I sneezed, shall not say it here but sorry friend! I was so embarrassed. I apologised to my friend repeatedly hehe. Wasnt intentional. Thankfully she's very understanding! She rocks!
Couldn't concentrate much in Higher Malay. So yeah. So when lesson ended, I walked home with my friend. Aha this is the interesting part. As I was crossing the zebra crossing to get to the traffic light, what happened was there was this taxi approaching. Of course I walked as fast as I could. And and and, unfortunately, my wallet dropped in the middle of the zebra crossing. My IC (now I carry it along, was inside). I had no choice but to take it. So bend down quickly and took it. The driver had to stop immediately. The cab was kinda close to me but thank god not that close. I dont know if it is considered close. Less than 3m from me. So yeah. I survived. Then as I got to the pavement near the traffic light at the junction, I turned and the cab was still there. It was a linked road which is near each other and the driver gave me this "man, I am so traumatised" look and rubbed his chest. I think he was basically in a state of shock. My mind wasnt working that well at that point of time too. Flu, headache. I showed some sign language I think if it is even considered. What I was trying to say using hand sign language was I'm sorry! So I lip the word "sorry" and like gave a salute kinda sign and gave that really am truly sorry look. Hey, I did not intend to drop my wallet ok! So yeah he was still traumatised, rubbing his chest. And I think he continued to drive on after that. I think there wasnt any vehicle behind his taxi. That was so close ok.
This "thing" has made me realise how unpredictable, vulnerable and fragile life can be. I mean I know life has it's ups and downs and is fragile but now I understand things deeper in a way. And being sick today, down with flu and some headaches and a little of sore, itchy throat has thought me how blessed and thankful one should be when they are in great health as in good heatlh. Nonetheless never take anything for granted be it health, wealth or whatever. Treasure everything around you and live everyday to the fullest it can be in positive way of course cause we never know when our time is up. Yeaps. Ok my headache is acting up a bit and I think I should rest.
Take care all! -nasriah
