Had fever and cough on wednesday, fever went allll the way up to 38.3. Went to see doc, he gave me 7 days mc and wrote there 'influenza-like symptoms'. I can't go out even if I have recovered and I am now. argh. I am so wasting my life away at home, when I am healthy, alive and kicking. I can't imagine how I'm gonna keep up in schoolwork, it's four days absent from school. Plus can't go to church too cos sunday is still within the 7 days. Will return to sanity on tues, the next FPS meeting. (GREAT. pure luck.)

The 'constructive, self-help-book-lover' me tells me to make a timetable for

the days spent at home. The procrastinator in me tells me that today will be wasted, since it's 3.10pm now, the day's gonna end soon and I should start tommorrow. (am I the only weird one that thinks like this?)

ql bought this book at $5(!) at the Times books warehouse sale. (It's extended till 31st July, at amk industrial park.) She bought quite a few, all $5 or $6. Anyway, this Lottery by Patricia Wood is the book I'm currently reading. It has a nice font, easy on the eyes and plain language. The main character is a guy (Perry) with an IQ of 66. A mentally-disabled has an IQ of 65. So, technically, Perry is not 'retarded'. He's just slower and lucky. (Because his middle name starts with L, so his 'gram' says he's lucky.) This book is somehow alike to off centre n curious incident, because this Perry is being discriminated and talks about 'fast' and 'slow'. Perry is 'slow' and thus is laggin behind in the rat race. Why is it that all the books I read is about seems to revolve around the mentally ill or disabled?
