Grah. ONLY Tuesday Morning?
Grah. I am so tired of getting sick every time I eat something!! And its not even like I am being adventurous with food right now! I know I could stand to lose about 50 lbs, but I'm really starting to wonder whether this bread and water (and some un-American tasting O.J) with the occasional dumpling is truly working. I got sick AGAIN last night/early in the morning.
(PS...I know this is really interesting. *Rolls eyes* Bear with me. )
Fortunately, we are going to the Silk Market (today, hopefully, if I feel well enough and if our Yubar gets the message in time) and on Thursday we have a site visit, a teahouse trip complete with dinner and a Beijing opera to watch while we dine. That will be a most enjoyable break!
Other than that, I think I'm going to spend this entire weekend working out and studying up. Getting all my readings done for Cheng Laoshi's class, doing all the homework for my Chinese class until the end of the summer (that way, it'll just be a review and maybe I won't fare as badly!)
Oh yeah, and yesterday we got 'the talk' about using our Chinese and setting standards to better it. I know this is the way it should be and all, but does my motivation transcend to that level of conversation? Sadly, it becomes sort of that inverse relationship. I really wish it weren't this way, but I'm having such a time trying to overcome my sudden lacks of interest. But yet I vow that this trip will NOT be wasted!
At this point...who knows? Only time can tell.
And, for the record, I skipped my WUSHU class today. I figured anyone who felt as 'iffy' as I did, per my body's sudden response to sickness, shouldn't be found halfway around the campus and away from a place to lie or sit. This makes it my first skipped class, but for some legitimate reason.
