So, there's a virus going around campus; and guess who has it?!

Bing, bing, bing! You are correct. There person that is sick is indeed ME! Isn't that wonderful?!

I've just been feeling icky the last couple of days but mainly attributed it to a cold or allergies or something. Until this morning when I woke up feeling like death. Went to health services and the school's nurse tested for strep but it was negative. She said there's just this bug that's making its way around campus and that I have it. Technially it's contagious so I don't have to go to class and if my professors want verification they can call health services and I'll be excused...but because it's 'not that bad' I could still go to class and tough it out. I'm still trying to figure out what I want to do. On the one hand I really don't want to miss two of the three classes I have today [the third one I could care less about] because we're talking about projects and tests in both and I don't want to miss the lectures. But I also know that both of my professors would be understanding of my being sick and not attending class.

I hate being sick. I just feel nasty and achy and gross. I haven't really missed home until now, mainly because I've never been sick without my mom there to take care of me. Even if I had to stay home alone when I was sick she would set my medicine out for me, make sure I has soup and Gatorade, ect. But...I'm left to my own devices here. It worries me. But I guess this is a test of how well I can function independently. I'm an adult now...got to suck it up and face the music. Which I guess means I should probably go to class...but I'll figure that out later. Don't have my first class until 11 I've got an hour to figure it out.

Sorry I've been whining to you guys. :/
