Of H1N1 and Worst Case Scenarios.

When H1N1 first hit Malaysia, i was so paranoid i used hand sanitizer every 5 minutes and open the door to McD's with my leg. As on Friday, i had three H1N1 symptoms out of what? 5? A fever, flu and a sore throat.
I THOUGHT I HAD H1N1!
My sister was making H1N1 jokes for crying out loud! If you want to get quarantined Nette, go get it yourself. *in Phua Chu Kang's slang* Don't play play with my life.
So after giving my sister a piece of my mind, i scared myself to the doctor(LOL) cause if you'd known me(im using the past tense!) you'd know that i hate going to the doctor. The doctor was even worse. When he asked me whether i went to school, i thought he wanted to quarantined my school or something.(actually i don't really mind but hello, my life on the stake right now!) After much scribbles only fellow doctors could understand he finally said, "Oh, simple flu." The agony you put me through, Mr Doctor.

On a more serious note, before i entered the doctor's room, we patients were just minding our business when i heard someone not shouting but screaming, "Tolong, Tolong". Those were the scariest scream i ever heard. Two things came to my mind:

1) Non-logical of course. Zombies and infected ones. Obviously i've been watching a little too much movies but clinics and hospital just do that to a person. And the screams were horrible.

2) Someone chasing the poor man with a parang.
Nobody dared to take a look outside. And, there was one elderly doctor, one elderly nurse, one guy with a tummy, one lady, one man who plays games on his iPod, my mother, my younger sister and me. I mean put in my shoes, would you feel safe? My mom shoo-ed my sister and i to the back and we just waited. And after a while the screams just stopped. I don't know what happened to the man but i hope that he's okay. After all that, my mom told us to quickly open the door and run out to the car. I wasn't going to stick around to find out.
ps/ My H1N1 symptoms is down to two! No more fever! :D
pps/ I ain't going to school tomorrow. Goodnight world!
