The Pain of Coughing

OH DEAR, THIS COUGH IS KILLING ME. 

It's no laughing matter when you wake up in the morning and find yourself holding your chest and throat keeping the cough come through your larynx. This is the first time I've come sick in Korea. I don't want to take any medicine because I'm preventing this stupid strain of cough from immunizing in my body. I remember William in the Philippines when he got. Oh it was terrible and took awhile before he recovered. So, I just need to hold on to my chest and throat.

Realizations

When we are put in a place, the first thing that we do is to look for something that is not there. Where is the telephone? Where is the internet connection? Where is the heater? etc. Most of the time we fail to see what is there. Well, logically we won't be looking for something that is not missing. That's stupid. But the question is whether we really see what we have or do we deliberately refuse to accept the fact for one's existence.

Vanity

Lately, I have been into improving myself, physically. Not that I am ugly, on the contrary I am gorgeous. Although I know that I could use a bit of working out with the way I look. But the problem is, I've never considered and given my appearance that much attention because in my opinion, a person should not be vain. What is more important is beyond what the human eyes can see.

BREAK UPS

When girls feel that they have a lost in a game called love, they cry and ask what went wrong. They feel like they have been cheated after giving the relationship enough attention. But in the end, when there is no way of saving the thing between a couple, girls resort to sour graping.

Why do girls have to make up things just to make the guy feel like she is not so affected when in fact she is dying inside?

Moving out

Winter English Camp has been over for two days now. I'm left here in my dormitory all alone again... well at least in my floor. There are still a few staying here but this morning when I went out to jog, I saw some fellas carrying their luggage and going somewhere. I don't know where but it made me sad again to see people leaving. Don't get me wrong, I don't know these people and yet the feeling of emptiness starts to sink in... again. I've always told myself time and again that I am the type of person who doesn't like to see people going away for it breaks my heart. I prefer to be the one to move away, but because I can emphatize I try to stay for as much as I can. This fear of leaving is the same reason why I am afraid to go some place new.

And then the question, why do we have to feel down when people leave knowing that at the beginning, they would eventually go? Do we really think that there is the possibility that things stay the way they are?

Hair

Lately, I have been conscious about my appearance. Thanks to the gorgeous men I see walking around here in Korea. I've fallen in love with them as I have fallen in love to the idea that I should change my image if I want to look better.

And so, I started jogging in the morning after teaching English to my student. And I eat breakfast too to give me enough energy for the day. As they say, breakfast is the most important meal of the day. I do feel better after doing this new routine but it takes so much discipline. And I'm talking about two days of extreme effort here. The cold wind that turns your sweat into popsicles isn't something to be ignored.

But the energy is not exactly the goal here. I am more concerned about toning my body. I am gorgeous and attractive, nothing can change that. But a little exercise can't hurt me. I am also after achieving those abs that you see men flaunting whenever they have the chance.

And speaking of chance, let me tell you that I will be in this public bathhouse again this Saturday which means I have to be naked again. I don't want to make my belly say "how do you do" to every living creature in that place. So, I'm taking the liberty of improving my ravishing looks which I hope does not become ravished.
