fatal!

i feel very unmotivated to do my work and study. just fell asleep on my table while reading a book, i didn't even know i had fallen asleep, goodness. physics test and bio spa on monday too, urgh my prac is so horrible i'm very worried for it.

i think that i should start paying more attention in school during lectures and tutorials. now it's like i only listen to the 1st 15 min of each lesson before i start dozing off or getting bored.

my doctor just prescribed me this topical antibiotic cream called c-mycin for facial acne. i was kinda happy at first, looking forward to a pimple-free future, before i got down to reading the little information leaflet that came with it. the first line i saw warned that the doctor should have considered other forms of medication before prescribing this product, due to its dangerous side effects.

i grew steadily disheartened as i continued reading the little leaflet, as i came across warnings that went something like 'should severe diarrhoea or bloody diarrhoea occur, stop medication immediately', or 'c-mycin has been associated with severe colitis which can end fatally' and LASTLY 'the safety of this product for use has not been determined'.

i used the cream last night and got diarrhoea in the middle of the night and this morning. i'm never touching that tube of medication ever again.

why can't i have nice clear skin!! it's so unfair. i guess i sound like an idiotic vainpot now.

off to study now, seeya!
