b3 b0rn.. c0nf0rm, b3 si|3nt .. di3

it’s been a trying week for me personally.. counting down the number of days til i hv to get back to the humdrum of working life (it’s now week 4 of my confinement).. ack!!! that alone already caused a mild case of depression..

then kakak got the case of ketumbit (what’s the english term for this arh?)… so the doc prescribed her some antibiotics and ointment for her affected eye.

the day after her visit to the gp’s, she came home from school with high fever.. apparently she had ulcers in her throat and also a mild case of sniffles … so the doc added on to the prescription another 3 more medicine and ointment.

so i got me my first experience of actually handling 2 kids – amir was on graveyard duty at that time – alhamdulillah all was ok… kakak responded well to her medication and anaqi was on his bestest behavior.

then i ended up with my own case of sore throat and what felt like the beginning of a fever… aiyahhh… was tempted to just self-medicate and down the paracetamol already available and also get me some strepsils.. only stopped myself when i remembered i was breastfeeding and shouldn’t be so reckless.

so for the past week, every mealtime i keep the line ‘just a spoonful of sugar makes the medicine go down… the medicine go down… the medicine go down…’ kept playing in my head as it is quite a challenge to convince kakak to take her medication.

You are The Empress

Beauty, happiness, pleasure, success, luxury, dissipation.

The Empress is associated with Venus, the feminine planet, so it represents,
beauty, charm, pleasure, luxury, and delight. You may be good at home
decorating, art or anything to do with making things beautiful.

The Empress is a creator, be it creation of life, of romance, of art or business. While the Magician is the primal spark, the idea made real, and the High Priestess is the one who gives the idea a form, the Empress is the womb where it gestates and grows till it is ready to be born. This is why her symbol is Venus, goddess of beautiful things as well as love. Even so, the Empress is more Demeter, goddess of abundance, then sensual Venus. She is the giver of Earthly gifts, yet at the same time, she can, in anger withhold, as Demeter did when her daughter, Persephone, was kidnapped. In fury and grief, she kept the Earth barren till her child was returned to her.
