Mum’s cooking

I haven’t eaten a homecooked meal for awhile. I actually never thought that would happen, since for the most part, I live at home w/ my parents. That doesn’t make sense right? Right now as I’m eating my mom’s cooking I feel so refreshed, and so at ease, and also so very thankful my parents are here, and that they can cook lol. I’m glad my mom likes to cook all these things, and from time to time try to re-invent what’s on Food Network!

I think it’s a sign that I’m home today, aside from just having one of the worst immune systems ever, and having a body gone stupid. I woke up not feeling very well today, it actually felt really really weird and foreign, I haven’t felt this way in a very long time. My blood sucks apparently, John called me and I told him about it, so he googled up some stuff for me, and now we know it all has to do with my blood. My blood is basically sucking right now. I haven’t had this happen to me since Junior year of high school. I used to blackout a lot back then, and get lightheaded really easily. Back then I also found out from a Stanford doctor that it was because my blood level was low, or my blood sugar or something like that. John was reading and also told me it was because of stress, diet, and lack of exercise. Which is all true. Stress comes everyday in any form possible, I haven’t been eating right since I’ve been working - I’ve basically only had probably a meal a day, and I haven’t been exercising like back in the day we had PE. So sad. A couple weeks ago I started getting back into running, and right after I stopped that first day I blacked out for a good 30 seconds. Again, all back to my bloodwork.

So hopefully tonight I can make an improvement. I’ve taken every single product I can possibly take, at least out of the stuff I have hahah. Proflavanol90, visionex, ginkgo, poly c, procosa, and a healthpak along with my food. My mom made chicken curry, banh xeo (crepe style pancake), and my ultimate favorite canh chua (hot/sour seafood soup). They’re essentially all my favorites. It’s totally a sign that I stayed home today. Thank you mama!

Now I must do what the doctor says, eat, read, and play Wii, and maybe a little CS in there will make me feel better, and sleep earlier.
