Flu Season

Hello guys. I'm seeing a lot of nice experiences this last weekend from your posts here. However mine was not so great. You see, I was sick for almost a week.

My boyfriend said I was bound to get it one way or another because it's the Flu Season. And after running around without an umbrella there is no escaping it.

Hence my weekend became an old boring one. Like a sad movie with white washed color...

The day started when my boyfriend woke me up from my slumber at around 7AM to feed me some rice porridge. (I couldn't find a plain one online. And I didn't get to take a picture of our porridge but basically it's plain rice you boiled and add some salt in it.)

It was sad that I have been craving for porridge last week but the arroz caldo version where you put ginger, onion, garlic and chicken in it and now I'm eating the boring version.

I spent almost all day in bed cuddling my cats. There's this weird belief by elders that when you are sick, it is best to keep your pets around you especially cats because they suck out the bad energy that is keeping you sick. I don't know but my cats can sense when I am sick, they become really cuddly and clingy once I'm sick. If I'm also covering myself with the blanket one of my cats would check under the covers to make sure I'm breathing.

Then lunch came and I am forced by my boyfriend to eat. We had pork sinigang , a pork sour soup. And trust me sinigang is best when you have the cold, your taste buds would surely comeback to normal in a few hours. And you'll be sweating yourself too.

Now if you're still running a temperature but not that high from before that you are not able to get in and out of sleep saying bed is such a drag. And time seems to be endless those times too! So most of the time, I watched movies stored on my phone or in Netflix. I just finished the Season 4 of Young Sheldon, a spinoff prequel of the famous CBS show Big Bang Theory. And I swear I would never get enough of Sheldon. Sometimes, I see myself in him. (I know. It's weird and I'm not that smart too. Hehe)

There were new shows in Netflix too like Sandman and Echoes which I finished in a day. I somehow have all the free time in the world.

And because I was watching a lot. I didn't notice that time was passing by and it's already dinner! I had some spicy noodles and left over porridge from the morning.

After eating I was back to my watching again. Sometimes I crave being sick because I could lay in bed without a care in the world and yet I feel guilty after getting better.

Now that's how my boring weekend went. How's yours? Was it also this boring?
