I’ve been out of action for two days cos i got hit by food poisoning late Mon night/early Tues morning.
I don’t even remember the last time i *had* food poisoning… i must’ve been in school!

“Does it hurt here?” the doctor asked pressing the right side of my stomach.
“No… a bit to the left.”
“Okay, so it’s not your appendix.”
“Oh thank God no.”
“Here?” he pressed the middle of my lower stomach.
“Yessss… ARghhhhhhhhhh. YES. (okay you can stop pressing now!!!)”
“You got food poisoning,” he stated, jotting down notes for my prescription, “I’m giving you tablets to take before eating, that should stop the pain and diarrhea.”
As he wrote it down, i thought forlornly, Damn. I wish it was cough mixture instead >.<

At first i lost weight from the ordeal, now the medication is not making me lose anything… and i feel bloated instead.

-_-

I walked into Topshop one day, scouting for new bright bikinis to make up for my loss in bright hair.
One of the sales guys gave me a big smile as i walked past.
Uh-oh, i smiled back.
“Hey! How’ve you been “ he chirped.
“Good…” i slowly replied, urging my ailing memory to jump start a lil something.
Oh dammit. Who’s this. I don’t remember. But then again, i always don’t remember!

I decided to drop the game of ‘yeah i know you!’ and went, “Erm okay, i’m sorry, i don’t remember where we’ve met.”
“… I’ve seen you before, do you come here a lot?”
“Er… not to this outlet, no.”
“… Erm.”
“Did i meet you outside of here elsewhere?”
“No…”

“Oh, Okay! I thought you were saying hi cos you’re my friend’s friend that i met and i didn’t remember,” i blabbered away.

Turns out Topshop just has really friendly salespeople -_-

I was commenting to DarlingDhanya why Indian dudes (my friends included) like to call each other ‘Joe’ or ‘Mike’
You know, like ‘Hey, Joe, wassup la!” or ‘Mike, can you pass me that drink ar?’

“I don’t get it -_-”
“Hey, i’m* Indian and *i* don’t get it!” she exclaimed, “You know, maybe they got the ‘mate’ in Australia sounding wrong, like one Indian dude thought it’s ‘Hey Mike!’ when it’s ‘Hey mate!’ and everyone went from there!”
“Hahaha! That. Actually. Makes. Sense…”
