Right now, I am pretty happy.
I have been being tortured by some evil virus for almost a month now. It stems in my throat, but has at some point or another entered my brain (yeilding headaches) and my ear (causing an ear infection- though that was bacterial). My throat still hurts after three weeks. I know it's a virus because if it were strep or any other bacteria for that matter, the antibiotics I was on for my ear would have gotten rid of it. All I can do is think positive and hopefully it will go away soon. Viruses suck. It creeps me out that they're not even living beings. "They" is probably the wrong pronoun. I've also been suffering sleeplessness, I think because my throat feels so dry. And my room can only be stifling hot and dry, or cold and dry, so there's really no way to remedy that situation.
Other than that though, I'm feelin pretty good. This is my last week rotating in this lab. I'm overall content with the experience. I hope though, that I like my third rotation more. I can't tell if the people in this lab actually like me or are just pretending to be nice. The research is good and all, but interacting with people is important to me too. It's part of everyday life and definitely effects my mood. I have high hopes for my third rotation though. He's new staff, and young, and seems pretty cool. So we'll see.
Until I kept getting sick, I was going to the gym everyday. It felt really good. I didn't go all this week though, except for yoga, because I always had a headache/felt exhausted. Dumb virus. I've also been playing Sonic Heroes on Xbox. I haven't played video games like that in a while, and I'm happy to get back into it. I wrote a song a few weeks ago for Gabe, and it's really cute, but I'm kind of embarassed to play it for other people. I think it's really good though; I'm impressed with myself, because writing music was never really my thing. Maybe I've acquired more skills, though I don't know how. It sounds kinda like a Dashboard Confessional song. Hehe.
So queit
Another wasted night
The television steals the conversation
Exhale
Another wasted breath
Again it goes unnoticed...
I kind of miss those days. The DBC and Bright Eyes days. I remember I made a mix CD for myself with a bunch of those songs on it, along with a few other artists of which I can't remember right now. I was so cool. Haha.
Gabe is about to leave Troy to come and see meeee. Hoorah! It will be a nice weekend. I plan on just relaxing and getting a lot of sleep. I sleep so much better with him. *sigh* I freakin deserve some sleep.
