On College Falls and Midterms
It's been a rather eventful week for me so far. And it's only Tuesday! Yesterday, I nearly passed out during Fencing class. I guess it was from dehydration and not eating breakfast that morning. The dehydration is completely my fault, and it's for the silliest reason, too. My roommate had her boyfriend staying over and I didn't want to bother them by getting my water bottle from our dorm room. I know, I should have taken care of myself first, but I didn't realize how much it would affect me until after the fact. The physical exertion from fencing must have been too much for my body to handle without proper amounts of liquid and no real sustenance to run on. I was taken to the college's graduate hospital and looked over. I was fine, but the brackets on my braces were knocked out of place. This afternoon, I was able to arrange (with my parent's help--this big city's too confusing for me to understand business in it yet) for a local orthodontist to fix up the damage it did to my teeth. Just in time, too--my front right tooth was sliding behind the left one, and it was getting painful to eat except with my molars.
In other news, I have a big Earth Science midterm coming up on Thursday. I'm planning on spending most of tomorrow studying for it. If I can fit it in between Farscape episodes, that is. Cristina showed me a source to watch them online and I've been devouring them ravenously. Who knew aliens from other planets could be so interesting? Without Stargates, that is. Stargates make everything interesting.
I'm sure I have more to say on everything that's been going on, but I'll have to post again when I'm less tired. Until then, have a great day y'all! Let’s see if I can actually get to bed when I’ve planned it…
