Effort

I have totally lost my voice. *croak croak*
My throat has been hurting since last Friday (and I had slight fever) but I refused to visit the doctor. There are a few valid reasons for this:
1) I don't want to waste money.
2) I don't want to take MC.
3) I think it'll go away by itself.

But now, my throat is telling me that it is not going to recover soon. It's trying to croak,"Serves you right for shouting when you're having a sore throat. Now you can't even talk!"

So, will I surrender and take MC tomorrow? I'm still undecided. I have my class to think about. Term 1 is ending and all the teachers are rushing to cover the syllabus. I have tons of corrections to hunt after the darlings. Can I afford to take MC?

Then again, even if I were in class tomorrow, would it be productive? I can't even talk without hurting my throat, let alone teach for 6 hours.



Tell me, am I that noble?

Really??

A few days ago, a thought struck me.

If I got pregnant next year, say July, I can be on maternity leave until my bond is over (2012 June). Ain't it great?

But, it can never be so simple. Sigh. As much as I would like to be a stay-at-home mum, circumstances deny me so.



Life's always complicated.

Just got back from Chinatown, after queueing for the 'irresistible' bak kwa. For 6 hours.

That's a record for myself.

And I'm never gonna break it.

I swear.
