The Flu Season

Hi hi... Updates again!

Apparently the flu bug is spreading around in school and I happen to be one of the unfortunate victims. I have been coughing non-stop for 4 days straight now, and if it gets worse, I think I'll have to see the doctor. Two of my other housemates caught the cold too, and I think I spread it to one of my other Singaporean friend as well... sigh

Cirque du Soleil was fantastic (watched it last Friday) and sitting at the third row from the front was awesome!!! We paid about USD$84 each and every cent was worth it. The music was just too good and I got the CD as well!

Just to let everybody know, I SURFED IN THE OCEAN!!!! Although surfing wasn't technically the term... since I couldn't even stand on the surfboard (I made many attempts), but only managed to kneel for 5 seconds before the wave overturned me. Now my arms are hurting because I haven't used those muscles in months! The water from the ocean was surprisingly warmer than last week's bay water. And I have to say that learning to surf isn't easy at all, and it can be scary considering how big the waves are in San Diego. There were several instances when the waves knocked me into water and I thought that I was going to drown (it happens to everyone). But thank God that I always manage to resurface immediately after getting hit. I wish that by the next lesson, I'd be able to stand and ride the waves!!!! That'll be so cool...

So yesterday I surfed, and today I played tennis with two of my German housemates. My entire body is aching (in addition to the aches you get from having flu) but I'm okay with it.. I think my arm muscles are getting harder (YAY!)...
