Stuffy

This is a life-defining moment...me being sick away from my parents. Yea, it sounds stupid doesn't it? But really, whenever I got sick back home, my parents were always there to help fix me dinner, or come into my room every now and then to check up on me. Here, it's just, "yea, she's sick, whatever...". I guess you could say that I might've been a little spoiled back home but really, I just miss my parents affection. Hehe, it does sound stupid. This is the most horrible time to be sick too since I got a calculus test tonight, a huge bio formal report due tomorrow (which I haven't really touched on too much) and a chemistry exam on friday (which I haven't really started studying for). Karma's a real bitch sometimes. Yesterday, it was just pure bad luck. Couldn't wake up to throw out the garbage, got sick (the sickness probably accumulated over a couple of days), my headphones broke. I even took a Claritin last night around 6pm (it's the only nose-related medicine I have) and now I can't take (or I shouldn't) anything until it's totally out of my system, as in in another 5 hours. I just feel so miserable right now it's not even funny. Ugh...all nasal-congested and I got a huge headache. I wish I had some congee right now (I'm missing congee, can you believe that?!).
I think going away to university really is a life-defining moment because it's when you being to realize all the things that you actually miss. You don't know it until you don't have it anymore (eg. congee!). Just right now, I don't feel all here and it's totally not the best time to be sick. I feel like such a shell of a person right now. AND I can't take my flu shot until I get all better which sucks too!
But hey, there's a rez-formal coming up and I might be going to that so I'm excited and it's the motivation I need to keep working and get better. (A little sad but give me a break here people). Other than that, I'm going home in 2 weekends time and I kinda WANT to go to Western, and even though my parents might say it's not that good of an idea, I still want to go. BUT.. the timing's just not right...don't worry Tiff! We have until April =).
