I'm sick. My throat is scratchy, I'm coughing and sneezing, and now my nose is all runny. I feel drained and icky, and my ears keep popping when I blow my nose.
Well, at least the computer is up and running and on the Internet again...yes, I'm posting this from my own computer. Ain't that swell?
Achoo!
Sniff...in other news, my classes are all going well. It's a bit disorienting, because the classes I'm taking this year are all the sort where its mainly reading and writing essays, instead of daily homework assignments. Not that I don't have plenty to do still: tonight I have to look up some vocabulary words, read a few pages of my Brit Lit textbook and write two paragraphs on it, read some stuff for Government, read some more stuff for Topical Issues, and maybe read a little more of Return of the Native.
At least the whole driving myself to and from school is working out well. The best part is, I can now just swing by the Borders store on my way back from Beachwood and pick up new volumes of manga without having to ask my parents. Today I used part of my monthly allowance to get the next Pet Shoppe of Horrors volume. Of course, it only figures I saw that there was *another* new volume of that as well...
But, I saw something else interestong at Borders. Y'know how they started making Bernie Botts Every Flavor Beans and Chocolate Frog candies? Well, obviously those are selling well because today I spied even more Harry Potter candies: Acid Pops, Fizzing Wizzbees, and Ice Mice. Betcha next on the list is Droobles Best Blowing Gum or maybe some Cauldren Cakes.
Cough...
