Last Thursday January 29, 2009, at around 4pm I was awaken by severe pain. My left ear was inflamed again. I mustered the strength to get up and buy myself medicine at the nearest drugstore. The pain subsided.

Around 8:30pm, Joan and I were talking about how she will go about her resignation and when I stood up to start cooking, I was attacked by severe headache and dizziness. I also felt like vomiting.

I went to the doctor the following day and her diagnosis was Vertigo. Since my left ear was inflamed, I was advised to see an EENT doctor come Saturday.

Saturday, they referred me to a certain Doctor, however, he cancelled going to his clinic and was asked to go back Monday. I went back Monday February 2 and was advised my ear drums are intact and that the only problem is my ears are too clean. He advised me that it might be diet, stress, or lifestyle that might have caused my vertigo. He told me that vertigo might have stemmed from problems with the ear, eyes, brain or general blood circulation.

I continued the medication of the previous doctor I saw.

However last night, February 4, at around 9:30pm I had the same symptoms again. This time my ears were not inflamed. I asked my brother to take me to the hospital. They arrived at 11:30pm and I went to Makati Med’s ER. I was advised to rest and go to a neurologist.

I hate getting sick. It’s expensive and it’s not fun. =(

Do you want to know more about vertigo?

Here are some sites I came across:

I just started training for a new company. I didn’t expect much because of the blunder I just got from my previous company. Hopefully everything will go smoothly for my clearance later. However, my class is the most fun training I’ve had so far. The people are crazy and wacky. We went out drinking last Friday and they’re a tad crazier outside but also shared their sentimental side. I wish to have good working relationship with this people.

There is also a matter with my new home. During weekdays I live in my dorm. I have to share the room with six other ladies but it’s ok. I’m getting the hang of it. I’m so used to having my own room and bathroom but at least I don’t have my people bossing me around. There was just this one time though a case of luggage being delivered for someone at the dorm but no need to dwell on that. If she will really think of it, if not for me she won’t have her luggage that day I did her good and she should be thankful.

Anyways, there’s just one thing lacking… or someone lacking rather… someone I can start making memories with…

You told me not to expect. I told you I’m going to wait. They are contracdictory. You told me you’re not even expecting then maybe you shouldn’t. I’ll start not expecting too. You told me to stop my obsessions of him not because you are around. I will. I let you be and let you be free and forget about that Friday night…

It may feel like it’s very alien or abrupt how this all started but there were indications right? Anyways, we are taking baby steps. I’m realizing the signs only now. It feels like we fit right into each other. It feels like everything fell into place.

I don’t mind that it happened only now nor the fact it took two years before we finally had the courage to venture or even consider it. You were so into her and I got scared as I was someone new in your life. I had two rocks I was knocking my head with, one after the other. You were a witness to all that. We’re both stupid. Nevertheless, here we are. Maybe, those people had to pass by so we could appreciate each other more.

I’m not scared that it won’t work. I know it would. What scares me is to fathom what won’t make it work. However, this is not time to be scared nor to think of things that has not happened yet and are even uncertain. This is time to look forward for the days that I know you’re ever closer to me (for I can’t say I only have you now for you have always been there).

I think I already loved you even before I knew I did.

Thanks for making me happy…

It’s a Saturday and I woke up early to take a bath and try on my new make-up.

I just bought Revlon’s Colorstay because I’ve been watching youtube videos about make-up and I have heard great reviews from xteener and itsjudytime.

I also bought myself an eyeshadow palette from Revlon and will use it as a base for the eye shadows I already took from Mom. He he he he he he! Oh I’m not a meanie. They were gifts to her that she didn’t really like nor use. She’s a lipstick person. I try not to take any of her lipstick from her except for those she freely gives to me.

I noticed that the blush and powder gave way probably within an hour or 2 because of my very oily skin. Probably due to heat (I don’t have an air-conditioned room), the lipstick melted a little after that. But the eye make-up is still very vibrant. Putting an base really does make the eye make-up last.

After 3 hours I decided to curl my hair. I’ve bought myself a curling iron long time ago but I haven’t tried it. This is my first time to try it and I love it!

I also use the nick nerdy`chic in IRC. (Oh by the way I didn’t get it from Michelle Phan although I love this girl. I just discovered her on youtube and I envy her skin and big eyes!) I started to use it when some guy just put it in my head when i told him i love literature, books, anime, and computers. Lots of people have been asking me whether I own a pair of glasses. In fact, I do. I’ve been wearing them since 2002 but it’s just 100 and 75, left and right respectively. I just bought a new pair because the last pair was broken and here it is.

Besides, I believe to be a real nerd, one doesn’t need to look the part but be the part.

I was suspended in time and caught in the world of Vienna, trains, palm rivers, and poets by the river. And how could I forget about love, passion, and kisses (yeah not just one.) We stretch the hours in months, days into years, months into eternity.

I just had dental surgery last Wednesday and it’s still hurting…

This is the xray before the operation.

This was taken in the middle of the operation after they removed the crown.

Ouch!!! When will the pain end!
