may day or mayday?

its sound similar right? but actually 2 different things.

today is my sixth day, yes I repeat 6^th day that I am still feeling unwell. i have fever (on and off), runny nose, cough, soar throats, headache and all in all I lost my precious weekend. instead of enjoying the free time, I’ve to lie down on my bed. I went to office today but being not really productive except it worsen my health condition.

yesterday was actually a May Day – observed in the US, Canada and parts of Western Europe in celebration of the coming of spring. But for Malaysia, it’s observed as a holiday in honor of labor and labor organizations a.k.a. Labor Day.

as for “mayday”, in definition is described as an international radiotelephone signal word used by aircraft and ships in distress. – quoted from microsoft bookshelf. it is also a word representing the pronunciation of French “m’aidez”, means “help me”.

And here I am, i need mayday! mayday!. hope to get well soon.
