Feeling Better

I'm actually getting back on my feet again after this shitty disease called mononucleosis (it's called that because it increases the number of single-nucleated white blood cells, also known as atypical lymphocytes becase they get all huge and atypical when you get the disease) I don't know (and really shouldn't care) which virus caused the illness, just that my body is almost done with destroying it due to my lack of fever, return of appetite, and feeling better. I am however very prone to tiredness. I feel drained a lot and that's not good when I have 3 tests this week! Hopefully in a few weeks or so I'll be back to normal and drinking, etc...

St. Valentine's day was yesterday and I shall tell you all that I think it's a dumb holiday meant to make everyone feel bad. If you're in a relationship, why do you need a day to remind you that you have somebody? Any why do you need to put on a show about it (flowers, chocolates, dinner, etc.) when all that stress isn't going to be a fun time? If you are single, you sure as hell don't need a day to remind you that you are alone! What kind of shitty holiday is this? On a lighter note about this silly Hallmark-created day, I was sexiled from my APARTMENT. I'll give you a minute to let that sink in. If I still lived in the dorms, where I shared a single tiny room with someone, by all means, I would understand the want for some privacy and such. However, I don't live there anymore. I live in an apartment, where I have my own room, away from everyone else, with a door. If you want privacy, I can...I don't know...stay in my room studing at my computer! My roommate owes me a dinner or something an that's all there is to it. I felt awkward crashing at a house filled with girls without boyfriends or were just dumped by stupid guys...not the most man-friendly environment.

I am still wondering about Spring Break as I had my heart set on Mexico, but it looks like we might be doing the road-trip thing out west. I've been there and there is going to be a lot of nothing before there's something out that way. We will have to see what everyone wants to do, but we better do it damned quick. I have to figure out school and such before I figure out playtime, plus, how am I going to pay for it, I wonder? There needs to be more vacation periods in the spring semester rather than just one. It really blows. One more thing, some people from the Johnson Space Center (JSC) will be speaking tonight at Julie's club's behest and they want all majors to come out and see what's up with the space program and how you can help. It's tonight at 7:00pm at ENS (the building near RLM, behind Patterson Labs) room 302. Be there or be square.


Got to admit it's getting better, getting better all the time

I want to be a DJ

Despite mononucleosis, I have some fun DJ shots at the Julie Welcome Back Party.

That's all for now, more when I feel more up to typing.

Sing a song of Sickness
