So now I've gotten sick. Actually about half the people I know are sick. We're calling it the Spanish influenza, since it seems to have struck people who hang around the Spanish girls. Lacking a doctor to turn to, I took some Italian medicine offered to me by Dr. Mario (Marco). I already skipped hockey training today, hopefully by tomorrow I'm healthy enough to go to Muay Thai.
I spent a couple hours this evening consoling a girl who's parents have just disowned her. She's Indian, and when she told her parents she was going to marry a black guy they didn't take it to well. They're actually flying here from London to take back the car they gave her for her birthday. Which just goes to show, people are basically the same all over the world.
