Hello Salvation!

Mood: sick  Music: Sister Act 2  Reading: Stuff for school

I’m not actually sick of love songs. But I am sick. I came home from work on Sunday night and they asked me to pick up milk and juice. Spent most of my last $100 on groceries. Yuk. I get paid this week though, thank god.

I knew something was wrong with me, because towards the end of the day, I was dragging. Not like tired dragging, which would’ve made sense because we were hella busy that whole day, and because my Fridays do that to me. I knew I was coming down with something. I decided to take preemptive measures and buy stuff.

I bought Sudafed to help drain my sinuses because it’s all up in my nose and that general area. I didn’t want anything that would make me drowsy. Joanna suggested Advil Cold & Sinus. I will prolly buy that the next time my allergies act up. I bought a bunch of canned soup and beef ramen noodles too. Well, I bought it for school so I’d have something to eat instead of leaving campus and buying fast food. My dad saw that I brought soup home, and he flipped out. Turns out he’s craving soup too. lol. I’ll have to remember to buy some for the house when we go grocery shopping again.

That night, I had bean and bacon soup for dinner, along with two Sudafed. I curled up in my Hello Kitty blanket and fell asleep. When I woke up again, I took a shower, hoping the heat would help my sinuses.

Monday was badddd. I had slept so much the previous night that I woke up out of a dead sleep really early that morning. I drank a lot of OJ over the course of the day too. Having chili and tortilla chips for lunch prolly wasn’t the best idea but I couldn’t help it. I was craving it, lol. Did my laundry, and then fell asleep again. When I woke up again, I studied. I managed to turn my homework in on time. Didn’t get too much sleep because of the nap.

This morning, I raced to school, but I made it on time. The discussion in Women & Lit was hilarious. We’re reading “The Bloody Chamber” by Angela Carter, and it’s realllly good. I finished it so I’ll just be able to write a reading response for it, since I missed this week. We had plenty to discuss. I wish I was actually awake so I could’ve participated lol.

I think I’ll start making my tea in the mornings. It’ll have to be black tea because my white tea doesn’t do anything to me. I should also buy some more too. Stock up and all. I’m not a coffee drinker so that won’t do me any good.

The student association bought Capriottis for lunch. Mmm, Bobbie. They did it to try and drum up interest in the upcoming budget cuts. Again. Can you believe it? As if they haven’t taken enough out of NSC already! *grumbles* Now there’s talk of either shutting my school down, or absorbing it into either UNLV or CSN. Turns out that the way our higher education system is set up, we’re all connected. So they can’t harm us without harming them, so to speak. It’s frustrating.

World Lit I was a fun discussion too. We read the “Epic of Gilgamesh” for this week. I would’ve participated more, but my voice was just not having it. Joanna even pointed it out, she was all, “Gill, are you OK?” Then I had to explain all my symptoms. When we met last week, she told everyone she was getting over a head cold. So this week was my turn, haha.

Work tomorrow. Yay. /sarcasm God, this was a really boring entry. lol.
