defeat
sometimes, one just has to admit defeat. i, for one, hate to admit defeat. prolly cause i want to have control over all, if not most, aspects of my life. that's why albeit my flu + sorethroat prior to hk, i still carried on my usual exercises and meetups as per normal, thinking that my body would be able to fight this war victoriously. unfortunately, upon a night of fun in hk, my body just succumbed to the claws of illness again. flu+sorethroat+runnynose+cough combo amidst the cold (yeah its 11deg..which is nothing compared to what im gonna face in MN) of hk is no funny matter. spent the whole of yesterday at home, falling asleep right after some super effective medicine i got. and getting up just in time for the next meal and eating the meds after and the cycle repeats. never felt so defeated. yet, i know this is temporal. my body is getting itself immune from the countless germs that may come my way this winter. (: i also realized that im no super being. i do have moments of weaknesses as well, and when these times arise, i just have to humble myself and grow stronger from that. i swear the meds re really damn effective. n i felt like a kid again drinking those dark irky cough mixture.
its 13 more days. WOOTS.
