For the first time on a Saturday, I'm not required to be at the office to do my sales duties. However, I had to get my ass at Home Team NS situated at Bukit Gombak for a company Rifle Shooting event. Literally, my name was not in the list of shooters but I was a standby. I need to reach at 9am but I overslept until 8.30 and reach at 9.30am by cab. -.-"

After briefing, they divided us into teams of 4. There were in total 20 over teams. My name was called out to substitute a colleague because he/she didn't came. I was in team 4 with my IT supervisor and 2 other colleague from different Department. We were given 30minutes practice. They rifle were heavy and couldn't balance myself. I thought, my team has zero chances of winning. I thought my team were a bunch of lousy shooters.

After we finish the game, we gathered in the briefing room for the results. There were 3 top individual shooters and top 3 teams. In my mind, I told myself, there's no chance my team can win this because I feel that, we weren't good enough compared to the rest of the team. But I was wrong. My team won 3rd place!!! Unbelievable!! Alhamdulillah. We did our best as a team. We got a bronze medal each, a photo frame each and a $50 cash each. I'm elated. Woot woot.

I've been dreadfully sick recently. I couldn't fast for a few days because I had to take medications until I'm 100% well. My stomach was in so much pain, I barely could stand up. I couldn't pass motion, I couldn't eat well. It was so bad I had high fever in the wee hours. I hate falling sick. Consulted the doctor for 3 days consecutively. I had 5 types of medication to take. 1 out of 5 taste super yucky! I feel like puking every time I had to take it. Thanks to my husband for taking good care of me when I'm so sick. He took half day on Tuesday and had to wake up at 4.30am on Wednesday just to put cold towel on my forehead and wiped my arms and neck with cold water. He prepared hot Chicken Noodle for me and fed me medications on time.

Being away from work for 3 days is definitely a stress relief. I'm feeling slightly better for now. There's still pain in my stomach but it's bearable. Insyallah, by end of this Sunday, I'm 100% recover and I'm fit for fasting. Selamat Berpuasa to all the Muslims all over the world.
