sick.
had high fever the whole day yesterday, about 39.5, hitting a peak of 40.2. slept and slept and slept. only decided to go the doctor when i realised my entire body was covered in this nasty looking rash. by which time all the clinics were closed so my dad had to take me to a hospital. did a blood test, the results of which are as follows:

Full blood count
-Hemoglobin 1.35 g/Dl
-PCV 42%
-RBC 5.09 x 10^12
-MCV 82 f1
-MCH 27 pg
-MCHC 32 g/Dl
WBC 3.7 x 10^9/l
D.C.
-Neutrophil 76%
-Lymphocyte 12%
-Monocyte 4%
-Eosinophil 0%

Atypical Mononuclear 8%
Platelet count 212 x 10^9

my maid is sick too. my mum took her to the hospital today, and she has dengue. my dad thought I had dengue too, but the doctor didn't say anything about dengue, though i think he suspected it. dunno leh, my maid did'nt have a rash. and dengue fever is supposed to last 3-6 days, mine was finished in about 1.5 days. my diagnosis was simply viral infection.
the thought did cross my mind: what if i have HIV? cos I've been volunteering with the patients since mid jan, and between 6 weeks to 3 months after infection theres this time where you get a fever, rash. But i tell myself not to be silly, I can't get HIV from talking to them. Better not tell my grandma i'm sick... she's gonna have a fit and then blame it on my volunteering...

anyway, i'm feeling better, its just the rash now...

i want someone to sayang me! become very manja when i'm sick...
i want to watch movie! Millions anyone?
i want(ed) to go to the Singapore International Film Festival! but its kinda gonna be over...
