Alright, time to spill the beans.
On the 2nd of February 2010,
I was given this to deal with:
Don't know what this is?
Google: Oseltamivir Phosphate
To top it off, it happened during my peak period.
With 1 quiz and two assignments which was equilvalent to 40% of my finals the following week.
Chinese New Year was just several days away.
It was hell suffering.
Many concern friends couldn't come to visit even if they insisted (I truly thank you all)
Because I had to be quarantine for a week regardless of whether I fully recovered faster or not, I could not attend classes, go for my quiz, and complete an observation for my report.
E-mailed my department and they were willing to give me a one week extension for my report and 2 weeks extension for my quiz but no extension for my project work as it was a group thing.
Shouldn't it be good news that I was given an extension?
Yes and No!
Because while others had finished almost all their assignments and can start getting prepared for the finals, I had to deal with the observation on week 1 of recovery, presentation and quiz on my 2nd week of recovery.
And guess what's in for the 3rd week?
My finals of course.
Therefore, the one month of absence. :(
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I wonder if you had actually googled what I had actually?
If you haven't, the answer is the infamous H1N1.
Owh yes, I caught the damn thing.
Luckily, I was detected fast and it was a mild thing.
Not like how the Spannish Flu hit Edward Cullen :P
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
So, how was H1N1 like?
On the first day before going to the clinic, I experienced terrible body ache the moment I woke up.
Was suppose to go to class but heck, it was only one tutorial so I thought it wouldn't harm to be absent for once.
Hell did I make the right decision or else my entire department or worst, entire university might be shut down :P
I had the chills, felt fatigue, lack of appetite but yet I insisted I am fine.
Daddy and mummy forced me to the doctor.
He did an Influenza A test (called the rapid flu test) on me, and in less than 15 minutes later, the shocking news came.
I was positive! :(
For the entire week, I practically feel fatigue and lost my appetite.
But other than that, I did not suffer any physical pain.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
So, to my dear readers.
Firstly, I am truly sorry for my absence.
Secondly, please do take care and don't think that H1N1 is no longer out there.
Do drink loads of fluids and boost up your Vitamin C.
Owh, and use a Hand Sanitizer!
