http://thenomadsland.tumblr.com/Lack of updates have been caused by an unforseen event aka I have been sick as a dog. I've had flus and colds. I've cut my fingers and needed stitches. I've had killer cramps, and hippopotamus migraines. But the past 5 days... I seriously thought that I was not going to make it out of the desert.
On Friday I was so sick that I lost my voice and was dizzy to the point I thought I might faint. I went to work for 30 minutes and was sent to go to a walk-in clinic. Three other girls had been sick with bronchitis before me, so they insist I see a doctor in case I was coming down with that, so that said doctor could give me something to help clear it out. I waited 20 minutes to be told "You've got what pretty much everyone in this city has, listen to your body, go sleep and drink clear liquides like there is no tomorrow". Oh great, thanks. Why did I come here again?
I slept all day Friday, up til about noon on Saturday, and up til noon again on Sunday. I had everything, stuffy/runny nose, sore throat, headaches, muscleaches, dry cough, mucus in throat, etc. You name it, I had it.
Alas I have survived (I'm a survivor ringtone, anyone?) and today is the first day I somewhat feel normal.
To stay sane I watched movies and read blogs online. One that entertained me to no end is Sarah's "The nomad's land" tumblr blog. You guys should check it out. She's from South Africa, but has been living in Japan for four years now. She's hilarious~
In other news I've been thinking of working on a new layout for Gossip Candy, and also I've gotten quite a few things for my very first giveaway. So stay tuned!
Have you been sick this season?
Was it worse than any other bug before?

How did you manage to stay sane?

Pour une fois, je n'ai pas été malade! C'est vraiment un record sérieux. Et pour les migraines, j'te comprends j'en ai quasiment à toutes les semaines (et ça fait comme si l'on me tirait les cheveux T_T)

@Melody: I try to sleep as much as I can, but I work full-time u___u I can't take a whole week off to sleep, even though I really want to. Haha!'
@Julie: Yeaaahhhh! Lots of people are sick around here.
@Fashionable: That's how I got sick, from people at work u___u'' I probably wasn't abusing of the purel enough... LOL I didn't think of Vicks until I was feeling better... Hopefully I remember next time!
@Naka: That's why I put it there! Lol it made me laugh too!
@Justine: Ouais... j'aurais du prendre le vaccin contre la grippe... L'infirmiere a ma job me l'a suggerer, et j'ai dis non... La prochaine fois, definitevement OUI! Lol Moi les migraines c'est deriere et autour des yeux... Fais mal T___T''
Nin Jiom Pei Pa Koa (ninjiom-hk.cwahi.net) may be another choice. i know alot of people use it, its also non alcoholic, though it's effectiveness is not as good as alcohol based cough medicine, but it's still good to use on not so serious sore throat.
