英語つぶやき;書きたいことは色々あるけど・・

Gee, the last long entry has given me stiff shoulders.  I am using Gori's auntie's dining table as my computer desk, but it seems that it is a bit too high for me. I have been trying to adjust my chair or using a stool under my feet but still it doesn't feel right. I had better reduce the time for typing on my computer. Oh, look at the time!!  I gotta do my regular morning exercise! Bring it on!!

英語でつぶやき(長文):あれれ?誤診だった??(9/11)

After I made the last entry I developed a minor headache, which got me thinking.......thinking if what I had believed to be an allergy that I had been suffering from was really true or not, in short, the headache raised a doubt if I really had an allergy or not.

I DO know that I had a hay fever in Japan. I went to see a doctor and got some tests then the doctor diagnosed that I was allergic to certain kinds of pollen and house dust. But am I really having a reaction to pollen in Australia, too??


I rarely have a headache. Only when I get a headache I think is when I've had a strong medicine or too much medicine when I really don't need it. Looking back the last few days,  since I had completely had faith in my own diagnosis, which was some kind of allergy, and also since the last thing I wanted was to make the symptoms worse, I took some allergy relief tablets, only 3 tablets after  a meal though. And then the next day I suffered from that familiar headache.  Given the situation and experience,  I can't help thinking that I might have overdosed on the tablet. Probably, I didn't need them. I was sooo paranoid about allergy and scared of making it worse, I just jumped on the medicine.. Now I think I just had a minor cold. 


To make sure that I don't have an allergy to pollen,  now I keep the front door open and go outside without wearing a mask. Let's see how I feel. My nose is a bit runny at the moment but that's nothing. It would be fantastic if I didn't have an allergy to pollen, then I could go bike riding with Gori chan without worrying about allergy!! 


Well, I feel embarrassed to have made such a drama over it. But..... that's me ^^; I hope you can cut me some slack! LOL.

英語でつぶやき:アレルギーシーズン本格スタート!?

Good morning. I had a trouble sleeping last night. I woke up with my nose stuffed and heavy & cloudy head this morning. I was tempted to go back to sleep but Gori needed a lunch to take to work so I had to get myself on the move. but fortunately I feel better now. Well seems like that my allergic symptoms are back now. I am really not sure what my allergen is. It could be pollens, pet fur or house dust or even all of them!!  My throat feels funny.  I had an extremely bad sore throat in the first year when I developed a hey fever. It was absolutely unbearable!! I should keep my throat moist otherwise I will be in trouble.

英語でつぶやき:ジョギングしすぎて腰にキテいます^^;

Oh boy, my back is tight. The reason, you ask?? Well, I have to admit that I got a bit carried away when I was doing my regular exercise on the treadmill two days ago. Usually I start with 400m walk as a warm-up and do some jogging for about 200 to 400m and then I walk for around the same distance. I continue this cycle over and over again until when I get sick of it or when I have hit 4.5km to 5km mark in total distance. But two days ago, I was feeling good and very motivated so I jogged for about 800m straight during one cycle! And now I have got a bit of relapse of my backache^^; I should take it easy for a while, shouldn't I?? I have got a lot that I'd love to do but I shouldn't risk it by pushing myself too much!

英語でつぶやき:手が寒い~~(><)

My hands are so cooooooooold!! Should I put on gloves?? No way! I wonder how I can warm them up. Maybe by soaking them in hot water or something? Well, it's not cold outside but I DO feel cold inside the house. Why is that?? Oh hang on, I didn't have a foot bath last night, did I? That may be it! Should I have one now?? Well, anyway, I will set about studying English shortly. I am pretty motivated about it!

Back pain is back here.

I did the treadmill for 5.6 km yesterday. I was very happy because I was able to jog for 1 km straight, which was big progress. But today sadly my back is not feeling right. I feel some dull pain in there. I haven't had this kind of pain for a long time. So honestly I'm a little gutted, but just a little bit. Did I pushed myself too much yesterday? Well maybe jogging for 1 km was a bit too much. I wonder if a foot bath will help for my back. I should give it a go, shouldn't I?

My allergy symptoms are worse these days.

My allergy symptoms are worse these days. Is that because of walking? I hope not. Maybe it's (×that's) happening due to the direction of the wind. Pollen (×Pollens) is (×are) coming inside through the screen door, I guess. I should keep closing the thick door but if I do that, my dogs might feel isolated and sad. By the way, Mick is watching me very intensely through the screen door now. He wants to play with his ball.

I feel much better this morning.(01/20)

Morning. I did some research on hey fever last night and learned some helpful ways to cope with the nasty symptoms. Thanks to them, I feel much better this morning. My head is much clearer so I feel more active and motivated. There are a lot of things that I want to do or that I have let slide because of the allergy. I wonder how many of them I can do today.

My irritable allergic reactions are calming down.(1/16)

My irritable allergic reactions are calming down because I took some medicine. But still I try not to go outside. I think I should be OK as long as I keep taking this medicine, which I am unwilling to do.

Pollen allergy.(1/15)

Gori and I went to town to get some groceries this morning and came back around 11:00. I got extremely tired so I had a nap. After the nap, I was alright but soon I got tired and weak again. I have been suffering from some allergic reactions such as itchy eyes, runny nose and sneezing. I've also developed sore throat too. Those symptoms themselves are not so severe but since there has been inflammation going on inside my body, I feel weak and tired. Come to think of it, looking around the house, I can see that a lots of flowers are thriving in the full bloom so no wonder I've got it. Anyway all I can do is just to live with it, can't I?

My back is a bit tight.

My back is a bit tight. I'd better loosen it up. I should start having a foot bath again. It's very relaxing so I love it! OK, I will do it tonight.

Teeth problem

My silver filling has come off from my tooth! I was eating just chips, that's all! They're not sticky or anything but it just came off! Gori needs to fix his teeth, too. Now we both need to go to the dentist, which could cost us fortune....

My rash has finally started to settle down.(1/6)

Morning. It's raining today again! It's like a rainy season! But it's not as horrible as Japanese one because humidity is much milder here. Actually it's cool and nice. My rash has finally started to settle down. It's still itchy but I am very sure that it's losing its activeness.
