Monkey Disease?!

Right now, I think I WOULD jump on the opportunity to be entertained, but it's difficult to want to move at all. My nose was stuffy this morning and I was suffering a little bit through my classes because I chose to read the text, instead of having the audio player do it. Now that, my readers, is what you call teacherly sacrifice.

So I have been lacking appetite for 6 days now. Since last Tuesday, I felt that every time I were to take a bite, I could not breathe and my stomach would be bloated. I did a bunch of research on monkey bites (see my teachjinglish blog) and I think I psyched myself out quite a bit. I'm going to get it checked again on Wednesday or Thursday.

Anyway...because I psyched myself out, I probably caused myself some anxiety...in actuality, a LOT of anxiety. I couldn't eat much, let alone enjoy what I ate. In fact, right now, I feel as though I am in purgatory - no reason to do anything and destined for temporary boredom. I don't want to initiate contact with friends nor talk to anyone. However, I don't really want to be alone. I really want to go to bed early, which is what I'll end up doing...I took some cold medicine a few hours ago and intend to take some more just before I sleep. I need to cover up. Even my room seems kind of chilly. My hands are already frozen over...

No hunger means no reason to eat. I did eat very little today...an exploding persimmon, some bread, and some peanuts. Slight headache...

Perhaps I will finish my blogs tomorrow when I get up...or, I might just sleep 10+ hours.

Friday, July 25, 2008 Bro went to class with me today! (He drove me to class, whilst I rested my tired eyes.) I was so sleep-deprived that each time I closed my eyes for 5 seconds, I would enter instantly into the dream phase known as REM. The first dream image I remember is that of a tropical paradise. The only thing I could see was a sliver of sunset, water on the horizon, but I was situated in some type of underground cave. The other dream image I remember is someone wearing red and black handing me a drink (in a reddish tinted room). I was going to reach for the cup, but I woke up after that. I was sooo utterly proud of him! He actually answered a few questions and impressed my professor. (This is, of course, attributed to ABL :D.) Basically, a guest speaker came in to talk about the 4 P's of Marketing: price, position, place, and promotion. The speaker asked the audience what those P's were and Bro listed them with ease!! Such a proud Sis, I am. During breaktime,

Jury Duty

I had an interesting experience, as you could infer from the title. Weeks ago, I received a letter to fulfill my civic service, so I postponed it to today, when I could actually serve my duty. I had no idea where the court was, in relation to the library nearby, but after circling around the block twice, I found some parking near the library and walked to the courthouse. The security guard x-rayed my belongings and directed me to the jury room. Inside, I was amused to find around 40 people seated with books or magazines in their hands. Perhaps others were looking around, confused at their reasons for being there, whilst a few individuals conversed. The room was medium-sized, perhaps the size of a classroom fitting 50 or so people. I also have to mention that about 1 out of 8 people dressed up in professional clothing (I suppose most did not care - yes, I was one of them). The administration lady motioned for me to come forward, so I filled out a sheet asking about my qualifications and

Bitterness and Fear - Dreams #0002: Heat Motifs

...is paying to get rid of an old videocassette tape. I just sold an old Star Wars Trilogy videotape on Amazon.com. After having Amazon take their share, I was left with very little. Then, yesterday, I found out shipping was over 9 dollars to expedite-ship the tape to New York. I went through with it...only to remember that from the whole order, I did not even break even, since shipping was more than the tape revenue and shipping allowance combined! (Dumb. Should have canceled the order.) I pretty much just paid someone money to take my tape. What a waste of time and money. To add to this horror, I checked my email quite late because I was busy with the last week of school and the person not only gave me a bad review, but also yelled at me several times through email. The only winners in this mess are Amazon.com and the Post Office. Yeah, I've learned my lesson... In other news, I had several fearsome dreams. First, I had been in front of a church building with m
