Days 18

Curently, I am suffering from toncilitis so it'ls hard to speak. Fortunately writing here does not require a speaking voice so I can still do it. I want to use this opportunity to tell something related to this. 

I don't hate chocolates. There are only quite a few people who do and I am not the exception.  I mean, who doesnt eat chocolate once in a while? Even in the Harry Potter universe it is used to recover from dementors. Still,  I a sometimes forced to hate it, and sweets in general.

Why? Because, I could not tolerate sweet things, my tonsils, that is. I could not allow the taste to linger in my mouth, or else it would really irritate my mouth and my tonsils get sore. Afterwards depending on the intake I would face the consequence of eating it. Sometimes I even get a fever. So, every time I eat chocolate, whether it be a bite or two, I am required to drink at least three glasses of water immediately, to flush out the sugar in my throat. Three glasses is the minimum. There are times when I have to drink even more just so that I can feel better again.

Do you know what happens when you drink that amount of water in such a short time? Naturally, your body could not hold it for a long time and you find yourself going to the bathroom often, to take out that excess water, and I am telling you, it can be a hassle sometimes. I mean, if I do it during work, I lose focus, and at home when you just want to sleep you really cant.

Outside the comforts of a ready access to water I just refuse the offer of sweets instantly. Once or twice I did it and within minutes I was desperately searching for water, forcing me to spend more because at those uncomfortable times you discover that water is like gold. That is why, my parents never have to worry about me taking candy from strangers.

It's things like this that makes me sometimes hate chocolate. But then who could resist the sweetness once or twice? There comes a phase in my life when I crave for it desperately, and I suddenly become willing to just down a few glasses of water. Well, it's one of these days where I look for literally the cheapest kind of chocolate and eat more than I should, you know, when you get this old you feel like you can endure most of the pain that life is throwing at you, and you become overconfident. Which brings me to this day, with my tonsils swelling yet again and the pain in my throat seems to not want to go away. I really need to control myself sometimes. 

Despite all of this, I am quite thankful that I have such a sensitive tonsil. It forces me to control my sugar intake and although it may just be a little factor to help me get rid of fats, at least I have a bigger safety net for diabetes. So, despite my agony right now, I thank God.

Day 3 (remake)

I decided to rewrite this in the same theme because, well yesterday I celebrated the birthday of my two cats Alice and Catherine Some people may say its weird. A lot would assume that it’s not a big deal. When I was younger, things like this may not have mattered. But then today it’s a different story.

Days 14

Less than a year to go before the presidential elections and he media has started a coverage frenzy on who would be the potential candidates. When I was younger I feel so hyped out whenever this period happens and even though I am too young to vote, I was still excited. Now, more than three elections later, times have changed, I have witnessed a lot of those politicians say their piece, have their chance in the limelight, be suddenly forgotten, eat their words, join a former rival group, the works. I've somehow develped an apathy towards them. Like no matter who the politicians would be, it would not make a difference. They are all one and the same. They would cheat, change sides, do some shameless advertising, all for he sake of a win. All for the sake of money. I've seen them unravel their true sides. The ones you thought were heroes were just as controversial as the villain they were trying to fight. It was all a matter of perspective. The oned who reveal the information to ...

Days 4

I absolutely have no idea what to write about this time. Yeah, someday I might come up with a better excuse but today is simply not the day. At the top of my mind, there are two things I really want to talk about. The first is about anime and the other is about network marketing. These two subjects I am equally passionate about, only for different purposes and reasons. I will talk about network marketing for now, because I have a lot of things to think about when it comes to anime. But when it comes to network marketing, well, the one thing that instantly comes to my mind is “No”. This does not mean I am negative or close minded. I am open to hear any kind of opportunity. I guess I could not properly explain myself unless I tell what I experienced about it.
