How was this past week? Share your reflections with us <3
Apart from being ill it's been a nice week! I've enjoyed spending time with my doggo and just catching up on rest. It has been awful not being able to sleep properly though :(

What is one thing you want to achieve next week?
I think one achievement is to sleep through a night and get back into a nice sleeping schedule AND go for a walk of some kind every day. They are both dependent on whether or not I'm still ill though...

What is the worst kind of body ache to have when you aren't feeling well?
Kind of a trick question because whatever ache I experience in the moment is always the worst 😢 i'd have to say it's either earache (which I currently have and it's so uncomfortable) or toothache

I'm done with my first three finals' papers and they went well yay! Compared to high school, my revision this time has been light, as I'm regular in my studies.

What is one thing you want to achieve next week?
I've got a few remaining exams next week. Gotta ace them...

What is the worst kind of body ache to have when you aren't feeling well?
Headache, as it can interfere with my studies

Heyyyy tommy and everyone! Hope everyone is having a good week! I can't beleive that its March already! Hope everyone has a good week!

Pretty busy with midterms and getting physically better as well

What is one thing you want to achieve next week?

Just get all my work, midterms, and school wrapped up before the break

What is the worst kind of body ache to have when you aren't feeling well?

Stomach ache, I have a phobia of throwing up

*shares cookies and kiwis with everyone*

Hope you've recovered by now, Tommy!

The past week had been good. Starting learning a new software, probably will finish it over the weekend. I have one week of work next week, so I might be a bit busier, and I'm hoping it won't snow as much by then. My parents saw the news, saying Spring is coming much later, maybe not at all. As temperatures claim to still be on the cooler side until May! If Spring arrives after May, our summer will be short or delayed into Fall.

My brother's dog is coming to stay with us for a week, will be arriving Sunday afternoon. Brother had a divorce a few years ago, they had a dog between them. So, whenever the ex-wife goes on vacation, we get to have their dog stay at our place. So, we get to see him 2-4 times a year, at least one week long each visit.

My parents will be away for a month next week, they are leaving on Tuesday and will be back in second week of April. One of my cousins is getting married, so they need to fly out to attend his wedding. Then, parents are thinking of staying at my Aunt's place after. My parents used to go visit them at least once a year, but haven't gone since Covid. So this time, they'll be staying there for a month.

Worst body ache, do headaches count? I'm not usually the type that gets headaches/migraines. So, when I do, it bothers me the most. Probably because I'm not used to it, so the slightest ache will seem like a big deal for me. I used to get migraines frequently in my early childhood, but grew out of it after a few years. I remember blacking out a school once because of it. That was scary, when I woke up, I was sitting on the floor in the classroom, up against a file cabinet by my teacher's desk. Come to think of it now, I had blacked out on the field, so, not sure who carried me to the classroom, and it's quite far.. They called my parents and my dad came to get me, and we went to see our GP afterwards.

I haven't been at work the past 2 months, I heard there had been some changes. Hope things don't get too crazy! Have a good weekend everyone!~
