Not crazy, just a little unwell sanny @ 11:08 AM

I've long forgotten how it feels like being sick, so here I am now, nursing a runny nose (eyuucks, phlegm and snot) and a sore throat. Now I can sympathise that wee bit more with sinus sufferers. By the way, 李居明 predicted that the common flu will be the epidemic that culminates into armageddonic proportions and that the only real cure is chinese medicine (TCM). In a way, now that I think of it, flu has never been fully eradicated from this earth...But anyway, my flu was a result of eating Mie Keriting Goreng Spesial Niki brought from Jakarta. Despite my (past) promise not to eat instant noodles (because of the wax), I was too lazy to cook something decent and since there're so many packets, I'd figured I'd have to eat at least some so it wouldn't expire and go to waste. And, frankly speaking, Indonesian instant noodles are the best (I've sampled Japanese, Hong Kong-ese, Taiwanese, Korean - Indomie wins hands down and I'm seconded by many of my overseas relatives). I was already having a heaty disposition because of late nights and this act of eating instant noodles is the final straw for my immune system. I'm reminded of a scene in Nobody Knows where the kids were savouring dinner in the form of instant udon; it sort of felt like that, the allure of packet noodles. (Oh yes Mar, Yuya Yagira really looks like Ryoma Echizen - and would you believe it, James as always said, "Eh dia gue liat-liat cakep juga deh" *rolls eyes* well I think he'd grow up to be a very cool cutie) So after this, I'm going to change my diet to consist purely of Milo/milk, trademark 凉茶, vitamins and obat batuk till I'm in the pink of health again. Before this spartan(?) detox regime I ate some kampung chicken which I fried this morning...they were sinfully delicious (left some for carnivorous sibs). I miss Jakarta and her food and my parents and Koki (not Dela!) and Chelsea (err..cancel that) and I want to see the new dog (Jumbo? ugly name-they always have to choose such obiang names!) and lots of others! *pining mode on* comments  sanny said...
