brain damage
Friday, June 15, 2007 (6:18 PM)
i was down with high fever on monday, which i didn't know till i went to the doctor 24 hours later. all i felt was unwell. there wasn't the slightest sign of high fever. at least not to me. so the story goes, i left my brain burning at 38.4 for 24 hours before going to the doc for a jab. during those 2 days and even a day or 2 after, my head felt weird. there seemed to be a mess of things going on. i can't seem to focus anymore. my brain has been "womanized".
i don't mean my brain go womanizing or what, anyway, which guy doesn't do that? but my brain has become that of a woman. compartmentalised. if you had watched the documentary Why Men Don't Iron, you would understand what i mean. mine was comparmentalised plus damaged. i can't seem to control my thoughts. there always seem to be a phantasmagoria of images flashing through my mind like i'm warping through time zone (not the arcade, please). totally irrelevant material. i'm beginning to feel better but while i do something, my head seems to be doing a lot of other things which i don't really care what they are. i'm kinda afraid that i've burnt some part of my brain control or something.
a while ago, i went shopping - for dinner. as usual, i "window-shopped" a while before deciding on fish noodles. on the way back, i saw this below my block!

yes, that branch snapped and the over 85% of the pathway was blocked so i had to make a minor detour. how is it that when disasters strike, they all do it at the same time? when lightning kills someone, a few more follow. when major fire breaks out somewhere, a few more follow. when earthquake hits some place, a few more follows. when a tree falls, a few more follow. come to think of it, was it the fever that damaged my brain or was it this branch. hmm...
