Sick
I have a cold or the flu or something... but whatever it is, it's bad and I've lost my voice again!
I cannot tell you how frustrating it is to keep losing your voice. Not only do you really need to be able to talk to teach but also I am such a talkative person. When I had to describe myself in three words for an interview one of them was talkative.
Not only that but I had to take two days off school and spent them recuperating at home. You would think that having a couple of days off work would be a good thing. A chance to rest and get away from the madness for a little while. But it's been driving me up the wall. The first day was okay... I was so sick I just couldn't do anything.... it's when I began to feel better that the frustration started, mainly due to the fact I have no housemates this year. It seems I can only take so much of my own company. It's times like these that I miss the Sedgwick street crew or really really want to get a cat!
Anyways, so being fed up with my own company I go out to see people but cos I'm still sick I make the whole sick thing last longer and have to spend longer at home and I force my voice so that it stays weak for longer. Aiyah. What will I do with myself?
Worshipping at church this morning was tough too ... it took me a long time to get past the whole ... But I can't talk, I wanna be able to talk too, how come everyone else has a voice, it's so unfair/ annoying thing.
So yeah, I suck at being sick... I'm just really hoping my voice is back properly for tomorrow. This morning it was non-existent... now it's there but a little dodgy. Here's hoping and praying.
On a positive note though my frustration at being cooped up is, in some ways, a good sign. I've moved on from the introspective thoughts from last time. I am so ready right now.... just working out what exactly it is I'm ready for! (More on that soon I'm sure)
