I woke up yesterday morning with this pain in my neck and it disabled me from any normal activities I would usually do with my head.
I couldn't turn my head, so I had to turn my entire body.
I couldn't bend my head down for too long or the base of my neck would start to hurt as well.
And worst of all, I couldn't look up. Even though looking up isn't an action you take very often, but well, when you can't do it, you realise the inconvenience it causes you. And you can't exactly turn your body to look upwards, you have to lie flat on your back. How are you supposed to lie down if you are outdoors?
I had my O level Chinese today as well, and believe me, it was NO EASY FEAT trying to do the comprehension since I have to copy the answers from the passage, and hence have to bend my neck down. Every once in awhile, I had to strain my neck slightly upwards(but not too much or it'll hurt) and I bet the invigilator thought I was some weird lunatic but I don't care.
When your neck is in agony and you can't make use of the mechanism your body has naturally provided for you, others' opinions hardly matter.
I'm gonna have to put reading that Jodi Picoult book off for awhile since my neck still hurts from completing one yesterday. It was horribly painful but then, that's what makes the book so good I guess. That you're willing to SUFFER just to complete it.
Speaking of which, I want a Haruki Murakami novel but it's so damn expensive. I don't know why, is it 'cuz it's translated??? It's not even hardcover!!!
Yeah, and this post is just full of random crap that I wanted to spew out.
Thanks to all the blogs i referred to (countless) for html code help :) (esp. cyn' and sixseven)
