Last Friday, I decided to go home early (early, meaning, not later than 8pm). At that time I just felt that I need to take a break from work. But when I got home, I sensed something is wrong with my health. I felt cold and my body temperature was hot. I immediately snuggled under my comforter. I then realized that, finally, my physical and emotional stress were already catching up with me.
Anyway, I looked for bioflu in my medicine box and got dismayed when I did not find any. I settled for biogesic instead while trying to console myself that my mama would prefer biogesic over any other medicine for fever.
I panicked when the thermometer showed 38.5 degrees celsius! I was trying to imagine how it feels on a hot, summer day when the temperature at yahoo weather reports at 33 only. What more for a 38.5?!
I felt that my body was so hot that I was already worried that my fever might worsen. Instinct instructed me to wipe my whole body with a wet towelette. But then, i was afraid to wet my hands with water. Good thing, I remember I still have a few packs of baby wipes in my cabinet. I got it and let it do its job.
Voila! After less than half an hour, my fever was almost gone! Was it because of biogesic or baby wipes? Maybe both. Or perhaps thanks to the science of oral medicine? Hmmm.. I would rather attribute it to baby wipes. It's like magic! :)

I Love You All The Way
My recent vacation at my hometown gave me the chance to unwind, meaning, sleep-eat-sing-play-dance-sing-eat-sleep (in no particular order). My baby would oftentimes join me in my busy schedule, except for sleeping and eating (as I am too good to share that. :)
I love to sing. Never mind if my singing does not love me. It came to a point when my baby innocently asked me this while I was in the middle of my concert: "Mommy, do you really love to sing?" That simple question made me think deeply if I should change career paths or perhaps, I should just be simply reported to Bantay Bata 163 for torturing her with my golden voice, much more for the consequences of her question. :)
Well, I could not blame my baby for asking me that. I sang "I Love You All The Way" for nth times. I just can't help falling in love with that song since last year when I first heard it being played. It speaks much of an unconditional love, something that the cynical-but-still-hopeless romantic in me could not help but say, "it's just too good to be true..."
