10 Day-Suffering

It’s almost 9 days that i have not taken a shower. And what adds to it is the 1 more day i’ve got to live without even washing my face. i have chickenpox since monday last week, and my doctor said that it takes about 6-8 days that it will appear in your body and the succeeding days, it’s healing. but what?! i’ve got to live 10 days of no bath. and i thought, when it comes to the 10^th day, i’ll be all giddy and excited to take a bath which i clearly suppose will take me about an hour and so in the bathroom merely enjoying the water to bits. all i want to do is to go to a spa and scrub myself to get rid of all the dead skin cells i probably got all these days. and would you imagine, i must not even wash my face! i tell you, i consume about 20 oil blotting sheets all over my face every single night. i am an obsessive compulsive, and that’s the way i’m going on with this. speaking of which, i am so eager to go to school. i am advised to be absent for two weeks and now i feel like i’ve missed so much. what with the home works, lessons, and quizzes. it’s so hard to be left behind! i’m counting all the days i’ll be in school until summer kicks in.. and i’ve got about 9 more weeks. which is about 45 days. speaking of summer, my aunt just called and asked me if i’d want to accompany my cousin in her UPCAT review which’ll take place this summer. she said that we need about 5 to register and we’ll get a less 500. well, that Php 4000 each so it’s kinda a dent on the wallet. i do want to, (what with all the advancements in lessons?!) but i also want to stay in Cavite all summer and spend it with my family. and hopefully, i’d take a few lessons on tennis and hang out with my friends in seton, which i always say, but never in improvement due to my busy schedules. i am probably thinking, if i could spend a day there during their intramurals. so one more year, and i’m off to college. hm. i have not even experienced prom yet! hah. i am totally irresolute of the course which i’ll take. of course, it’ll be somewhere in mass communications. maybe with a minor in theater. that would be great! they have that kind, don’t they? hm. i am thinking, this summer, i’d want to be in trumpets! my cousin have tried it last year, and i have not heard of any downbeats. it must be great. since classes will be in the podium, and after classes we could all hang-out in the mall. i don’t know. on the other side, i am completely in high spirits that i have but finished a few towers in my tle compilation. yeah, all by myself! and it’s just so rewarding seeing your work done. it’s quite hard, but when you start with it and completely follow what you’re supposed to do – you’ve gone a long way from there.

oh yeah, it’s mom’s birthday last monday, sunday’s was nanay’s (13th. my grandmother – father’s side). since we all could not celebrate it on those days, they’ve come to a decision that the celebration will be held this saturday with some of my uncles and aunts going. not big though, but it’s surely happier when all is complete. :) and i just hope that i’m completely well that day onwards. mom and dad's out, they both went to price smart to go shop for some ingredients. hm, it's quite sad though that i cannot come with them. what with all the groceries?! i love shopping for groceries.. and yet, i could not. :(

p.s.: i’ve borrowed this book ‘Eleven Minutes’ by Paulo Coelho to my cousin last year, and it’s been accumulating dust in my shelf for months. just last week, kuya rt asked me how i’m going on with the book and i confessed that i’m not reading it at all. but he said it’s a nice book anyway to which he eagerly finished it. yesterday, i was reading the book. it’s good. but the whole plot just does not appeal to me. it’s about maria, a girl who is paid for sexual desires.. and her desire to find love along the way. although the writing is critically splendid, i must confess, it does not appeal to me in any way.
