I'm Sick :(

Monday, April 18, 2011

I did not get to bed until almost four, so waking up at five forty was not possible. I got up after six instead, got ready quickly and went down to the junction as quickly as possible. I had the luckiest morning because I could see down to the end of the junction that a bus was pulling over, so I ran as quickly as I could straight onto the bus just making it before they shut the doors. It was terrific and when I got off at thirty-seven I did not have to wait for any lights while walking to the station, I just seemed to have the perfect day to have left late. I arrived at work about ten minutes early, which was completely unexpected. I though for sure that I would be at least ten minutes late, it was a pleasant surprise to arrive early. I had essentially nothing to do at work, because my boss continues to say there is a lot for me to do, but she has not organized it yet. I think this will be one of the last weeks I go. I hate wasting my time and money to get to work and do nothing.
After work I got back, got ready for Twi, and went off to class. I was exhausted in class and could not wait to get to bed. I took a twenty minute nap and then a friend woke me up and I was unable to go back to sleep before dance. Dance began at seven thirty and we did not get back until almost two. It was such a long night and I could not wait to get to bed. The walk back to the room was long and full of mosquitoes. I must have ten new bites from the short walk over to my room. I had to finish a dance paper before bed and get some reading done, so I barely got to sleep at all.

I woke up at around 7 am extremely ill and I decided there was no way I would be able to make it to class. However, at about 11:00 I saw the Metro Mass bus pass by and I realized it must be a sign to take the bus to class. I decided to go and I am not sure it was the right decision. I was so sick the entire class I could barely pay attention and I had to keep leaving to go to the bathroom. I then had to wait for an hour in the CIEE office for my next class to begin. I decided it might be a good idea to put something into my system, so I took a small breaded food. It turned out that my body disagreed because about thirty minutes later I regurgitated it. From then on for the remainder of the day I puked about every hour. I sat through class and then went to dance class in so much pain. I did not dance because I could barely keep my head up and I had absolutely nothing in my system. I got back from dance before 8 and went straight to bed.
