Was planning to do some cny shopping today but I had to ditch my plans barely 5 seconds after stepping out of the house. Why?! All thanks to my stomach who decided to hit me with a double-whammy of gastric plus diarrhoea.
I know it sounds funny – how can someone have both at the same time??? Well, welcome to my world, where anything and everything can happen to my stomach. So it was a dilemma – should I go home and wait for the pain to disappear or should I continue and grab a bite outside (since there was nothing to eat at home anyway). At last, I could not resist the temptation of a shopping trip and I went ahead with my plans.
Sadly, I didn’t make it very far. Well, at least I got till NUS law school, which was technically pretty close to Orchard, before I had to make a U-turn back home. The pain was so unbearable that I was breaking out in cold sweat and my legs felt like jelly.
I’m starting to get really frustrated by my body. These sudden pangs of pain are almost like clock-work; once the time is up, it will come. And it makes me worry about how I’m gonna go to work next time. Will my boss really understand and empathise with my condition? I mean, how am I gonna bring it up to him/her in the first place?
“Sorry ah, Boss. I cannot come to work coz I got stomach ache………Yes, I know last time I told you the same thing but I am not lying. Really got stomach ache…………………………… Hello, Boss? Boss? Hello?”
- dead tone -
Ha! I can imagine it already. -_-
