bored-ness

Well apparently our film didn't win anything big, we only took back the "best use of prop" so I heard. And apparently quite a few people went to watch the best of screening. I went to watch Iron Man Digital, which was nothing short of AWESOME.

To be honest I think I had (and am still having) a very deprived childhood where as the youngest child your needs are always put last after your elder siblings' (no, the youngest are not always spoilt), which kind of means I did not grow up with DC or Marvel comics, or rather no comics at all. I had the kind of childhood where any attempt to play or make some noise is silenced by the father's spank and the mum's scolding, and whatever I wanted was deemed "not necessary" by the family. Okay, emotional thinkbacks aside, Iron Man was pretty awesome. I did not have the benefit of knowing the story beforehand so when Samuel L Jackson came out at the end I have absolutely no idea what he was talking about.

Okay, in more news, I fell to tonsillitis on Thursday, after we went to eat the authentic Katong Laksa on Wednesday. I suspect its the "hum" which tasted a bit funny, or maybe it's just the screwed up body clock talking. Anyway for the uninitiated, tonsillitis is a condition by which there are two little things in your throat which act as your body's poison testers, or something like that. They get infected rather easily, giving you tonsillitis. Since it's not actually your throat in theory it's not a sore throat, and even the doc said you can eat practically anything as long as you can swallow it. There is, of course, on and off fever for the first few days.

Nothing some good antibiotics can't solve.

I do think the doc kind of overdosed me, giving me the humungous 625mg antibiotic instead of the usual 250 or 500. But on the bright side I feel totally all right by Sunday, so... I guess that's all right.

And I changed the blogskin a bit, kind of lazy to make from scratch as per usual so I just used the template, pretty handy. Lost a lot of the blog links though, those are what appears in my bookmarks folder, so tell me if you want yourself to be linked!

Cheers
