Sigh. I am still waiting for the pictures of my trekking trip I did last weekend. Getting restless and I am just unable to keep my butt glued in the comfort of my home. And I am longing to hear properly again. The ear infection I have is killing me. I have been rather camitosed ever since I got home.
Got home Sunday night.
Had high fever on Monday.
Saw the doctor on Tuesday and she said, "oh ur ears are pink and healthy and it must just have been the common cold. ENT. When u have a flu it affects ur Ears, Nose, Throat." I was so relieved to hear that.
On Wednesday I went to work and it got worst. My left ear was in so much pain and I can't sleep at nights.
Thursday, the other ear got blocked as well. Ok my cold cannot be this bad I thought.
Friday I woke up in pain. Went to see another doctor and the first thing he said when he looked into my left ear was, '' it's an infection. I don't know if ur ear drums might have bursted already. '' Oh my god, I am going to lose an ear!! He said something like I might have gotten the infection during my trekking trip, that the river water might be dirty. How would I know? I couldn't hear.
Saturday, I started on a course of antibiotics. I thought I was going to be well soon. Furthermore I had done nothing the whole week that my patience is wearing thin. How can I have so much energy in me but no where to dispense??? I'm frustrated. So ok, I decided to go Velvet. I was happy but not only 15 minutes in the club, my head spun. I threw up so badly in the club toilet that I had to leave an hour after I arrived. Not only once but 2 times.. and another on the ride home in the cab. What's happening? I think I must have been cursed by some psychomaniac stalking me.
Sunday I woke up feeling nauseous. Is this how somebody pregnant really might feel every morning? It was a terrible feeling, having to drag ur feet out of the bed on a Sunday morning. I decided I was a little better and went to catch a horror thriller movie. Arghhh what a wrong choice, the gruesome scenes just made me threw up my breakfast and lunch! It was the worst day of my week. I threw up every hour, during the movies, during the ride home and during the soccer match when Brazil was playing. I was totally bedridden.
Comes Monday and that was it!!! I went to the doctor again and found out that the antibiotics was too strong for me. Good, I thought that was really the end of me.
Tuesday.. Wednesday... my restlessness is just building up. I wanna do something!!!! Just give me something to do apart from lazing in front of the couch, apart from eating and reading in bed. Well actually, i just want to hear properly again. I want my left ear to be able to share what my right ear hears.. I want to be able to concentrate on a fairly intelligent converstaion without having to say 'huh' every minute. I want to be lazy and be able to pick out 2 to 3 converstaions at the same time.. and even that, be conscious of my surroundings.
Sigh. Fuck the ear infection man.

And I could not be there and take all the shit. I was even cut off in every kind of contact, being in the backland of Aceh. I really hope you will get better soon and that you will be able to hear again. I have so much to tell you...it would be a shame you would not be able to hear those words.
love you
