note to tangible self

dear left hand,

please bear with me. just two more sundays and all of this pain will soon go away. well, not really 2 sundays but two more weeks. im sorry but i cant allow you to go back to non-writing mode just yet. even a few days of non-writing mode, you quickly revert back to your "worst handwriting ever" mode (i cant even understand it sometimes. thats how bad it is). all i ask is two more weeks. i hope you dont sustain some kind of injury like one of kobe bryant's fingers. the doctor said that kobe's finger might have sustained some irreparable injury since he forced it too much. i know youre in pain right now for one full week already. just hang in there a little longer. after these two weeks, you can go back to being idle again with regard to writing. just dont "break" to the point that i will have to use stamps to sign my signature.

as for you right wrist, i hope youre not suffering from carpal tunnel syndrome. i always try to do some stretching exercises from time to time. i dont want surgery to fix you. having a horizontal scar on you doesnt really look nice. although its a good conversation starter.

as for my gums, thank you for suppressing another gum boil. the week before the bar exams started, you caused a bit of a problem by allowing a gum boil to happen that caused my right cheek to swell. its hard to concentrate in pre-week bar lectures with a swollen cheek. thank you for not allowing it to happen this week (although you swelled a bit a few days ago). having pus squirt out of you is really gross. really, really gross. i cant have that while taking the exam. so please, just two more weeks.

my feet, sorry if ive neglected you these past couple of months. please dont fall off (if thats even possible). i know both of you are filled with rashes right now but please understand, im busy and both of you are really far away. im too lazy to bend to keep on checking if the two of you are still doing ok. well, i know youre not ok but once these exams are over, i will have both of you checked. i will find a pretty dermatologist just for the two of you. i looked for a pretty dentist for my teeth, didnt i?

lungs, hang in there. at least youre just giving me coughing fits that arent painful. i will never smoke again. well, right now, im sure of it. but then again, the bronchial lesions and scars that you have werent caused by smoking right?

to my eyes, my very beautiful eyes, you can endure this. i always make sure that the two of you get enough rest. so bear these two more weeks of reading.

lastly, brain, so far so good. you never get tired easily and you always find ways to keep my sanity by allowing me to go insane for brief moments such as this. tomorrow, we hit the books again. i know youre getting used to this kind of exertion and youre liking it. just dont like it too much or im going to get too bored. you know how crazy i get when im too bored.
