    Seeing the dr sounds a good idea
    The purpose of life is not to be happy. It is to be useful, to be honorable, to be compassionate, to have it make some difference that you have lived and lived well.

    Today I haven't been at work. I woke up in the early morning, feeling bad and having cramps in each muscle. And having fever of course. As I could barely move my fingers I phoned my boss and remained home. Later I've taken aspirin, no flu or angina signs so far. Yesterday had just nausea, headache and weakness. Now feeling better and fever came down. Tomorrow two clients are waiting for me.
    Today a woman phoned me and asked about Chinese translation. Sometimes I really don't know how I cope with some difficult situations.

    Thanks!

    Yes, Chinese, but it's not my speciality, I've only helped her to connect with one of few translators.

    Today has been a pretty silent day.

    Feeling better and translated 8 pages.

    I've received a good news from my ex-student. She took part with family in Quebec immigration programme. They had been nearly refused after all invested forces and resources, now they are accepted. Really happy for them, all my students had been admitted, so I'm proud of them.

    Yesterday an online guy greeted me, saying that he missed me. Not really, I guess, just a little. I'm feeling ackward because I just don't know how to get conversation interesting. But he was not so passionate either.

    Glad that you're feeling better, and well done with your ex-students. We visited Quebec in August for a few days out of three weeks, and loved it.

    If the guy said he missed you, then he missed, no matter if a little or a lot; you were missed. You could talk about films, books or holidays. Asking questions and getting him to talk might be easier than you doing all the talking.

    Selena, can I ask if you have spoken to him before and if you have for how long and did you discuss much?

    Yes, for around four months, but these are occasional greeting or little talks. nothing serious, I mean just friendly interchange. But I think he is a little shy too.
