i am a pear

I took this personality test online. Just before heading to bed. I'm hoping to get some sleep with this blocked nose.

So, what fruit am I? A pear.

I do agree with some of the descriptions, happy with a few others and unsure about the rest. The test might be inaccurate or I just didn't pick the accurate answer.

Anyway, I do enjoy sweet juicy ripe pear. Ah, may be I should get some of them from the Moore Street market tomorrow.




You Are a Pear



You are independent, intelligent, and a free thinker.

You can accomplish great things, especially when you do them on your own.


You are direct, honest, and sometimes even a bit brutal.

There's not much that gets in the way of you and your ambition.


While you are hard nosed, you do have a much sweeter side to you.

It takes times for you to soften toward someone, but once you do, you'll be their friend for life.

any chemist well stock?

I honestly pity this blog. Hidup segan mati tak mahu. But I'd rather keep it for the meantime. I may wake up after the winter ends.

Today was a better day than a couple of days before. However, I had a problem which only settled a few minutes ago. It was nothing of a problem actually. I was trying to renew my library loans online since morning. Three books are due at 9.45pm tonight. However, I can't logged in. The reasons given are my student ID number is not recognised or the server is busy.

Okay, I assumed the latter. Then my laptop acted up. Hmmph, I guess it was because of the new antivirus programme that I use. After my laptop gained conciousness, I tried again, and again, and again... and still failed to get in. Half furious, half anxious, I tried again. Still.

Okay, I just get my ID card. There you are! I think you know what had been happening all along. I got my ID number wrong. The number that I've been using frequently over more than three years!

Ahh... may be I can choose to blame everything on the weather. I wasn't in my top form these days. Not so much of depression (obviously I don't even have reason for that!) but I just feel like sleeping all the time. Then, yesterday my sore throat was worsening and I started to cough. In the evening, I already started to add on sneezing and muscle pain on my list of symptoms. Today, I added runny nose on top of worsened cough, swollen tonsils and tight chest. Now, may I give my impression?

Subsyndromal Seasonal Affective Disorder (SSAD) or winter blues and Non-allergic Rhinitis (has nothing to do with winter months).

Okay, enough making myself feel like a hypochondriac.
I think they are a bit too much, too harsh. I'm not sick!
But may be Sudafed (pseudoephedrine) or Benadryl (dipenhydramine) could offer some help. Hmm, but I don't feel like going out to the chemist.
ps: I knew winter is challenging my will the day I set my feet here in Dublin. I knew it all along.

it's november

Eh, today is November the first.

So... what does that mean? I've been neglecting this blog for a good half a month. Yeah, the usual reasons (or to be exact excuses!) being busy, being lazy, being moody, being way too happy...

Hmm, may be i'll go the more traditional way. Writing journal. Haha, just like a-level years. We'll see. For the moment, I enjoy reading blog to writing.

Salam.
