flu-ish season..

woke up at 6.30am today..
then decided to call mum as i havent talked to her in the passed one week..
then she heard my voice..
(ya, the same coarse voice again...)
so i explained as
"my throat is unwell"
then i realised i chose the wrong term..
bcs i didnt have any sore throat,
it's jus plain lost-of-voice..

she said they might cancel the trip to bandung next month
as dad dont want the trouble of being quarantined after the trip..
this is not the first time i heard about cancelling trip due to H1N1..
but i was wondering
indon also so serious d??

then i came to realise that how long i have been lost touch with the latest news..
so i went to some website and read the latest news about H1N1..
it's shocking that FIVE schools have been closed down back in malaysia due to H1N1!!!
and there are 40 CONFIRMED cases near the place i'm currently staying,
and 30 possible cases..

Confirmed:

* Ayrshire and Arran - 4
* Fife - 1
* Forth Valley - 7
* Greater Glasgow and Clyde - 42
* Highland - 83
* Lothian - 4
*
Possible:
* Ayrshire and Arran - 6
* Fife - 5
* Forth Valley - 4
* Grampian - 1
* Greater Glasgow and Clyde - 30
* Highland - 37
* Lanarkshire - 4
* Lothian - 4

and i'm still taking it so lightly..
going out like nobody business..
kept the waterless handwash in the bag nicely without using it much..
the only protection i did
maybe is taking vit C regularly.. =P

i think i gotta be more concerned about this issue..
the WHO prediction might be right
ONE THIRD of the world population MIGHT get H1N1 in the coming days!!
but let's pray hard that it's NOT TRUE!!
(trying to deny it.. =P)

----------------------------------------------------------------------------
by the way,
we are not "flying" to london anymore,
instead,
we are going to TAKE BUS! ^^
because we want to save on accommodation! =P
again,
the air ticket is BURNT!

and i also found some statistic for london, or maybe whole England..
"More than 3,500 cases have been confirmed and tens of thousands more instances could emerge each week by autumn...."

errrrr....

well, best precaution is not to travel when unnecessary. Take care at Glasgow~
