Sickness

so i've learned this semester one important lesson. you can always tell who cares about you and who doesn't. there are people who say they do but don't mean it and then there are those who can't say it but you can just tell. the ones who truly care for you are the ones who keep track of you. when you hurt, they're the first in line, when you're tired they're the first in line, when you have something exciting to tell someone, they're the first in line. they genuinly want to know more about you. the ones who don't... well... don't. they just stay around you maybe because they think they can get something off of you or maybe they just feel guilty if they don't. in any sense, it's an important lesson to learn. who are your friends and who aren't.

being sick for the past few days has been suprisingly good for me. it's kept my mind off of things that i shouldn't be wasting time thinking about. exams are coming up soon which is bad, but atleast i'll be focused on my objective instead of zoned out all of the time. i found out that i have the flu though. hope i haven't made anyone sick... but it's really not all that bad. i don't ever throw up which is a good thing. it makes any sickness i ever get that much easier to deal with. i'm not currently at the "go to the nurse" stage yet, but if i get there, it'll be my last resort. i enjoy fighting off sickness by myself. no medicine, no doctors... unless of course it is a serious sickness. i don't quite consider the flu to be serious though. strep throat, yes... pnemonia... yes... colds and flus and other bugs... no way.

i've got alot of catching up to do though before i can safely end this week. it's going to be busy and it's going to kick my butt in the midst of my illness, but i don't care. after being home for thanksgiving i've been hurled into a different mindset. i'm here to complete one objective and one objective only. when i'm done with that, i'm going home and i won't look back for another month. peace and love
