Oct. 25th, 2009 11:23 amugh I'm sick. I was absolutely fine on Friday, and then I woke up at 8 AM on Saturday for volunteering, and I had a horrible cough and a sore throat. And I probably should have just stayed in bed and skipped volunteering, but I was already awake, so I went anyways. And then I spent the rest of the day with a headache and was pretty much totally out of it mentally until about 9-10 PM. When I'm sick, I always suddenly feel better around that time, and then that makes me want to stay up late since I finally feel all right for the first time all day, which is not a great idea when you're sick. But I did end up staying up until like 1 AM. Mostly, though, because I started reading The Hunger Games, which was totally addicting. (I totally ship Katniss/Peeta, btw. Although I haven't read the second book yet.) And now I finally have the urge to read again, which I haven't had in ages. But this is why I totally can't read during the schoolyear. It's not that I can't find any time at all to read, but that once I get into a book, I ignore everything else so that I can finish it (as I did with THG, where I knew that I should go to sleep early so I could get better, but I was too addicted to stop reading). I'm like that with TV, too, but TV episodes are only ~22 or ~42 minutes and I can do work while I'm watching them, unlike with reading. Oh well. I'll have time to read on the plane on Wednesday and Sunday, at least.
This morning I actually feel a lot better mentally then I did yesterday, even though I think my cough and sore throat are a little worse. ugh, I so don't want to be sick right now. I always manage to get sick right before I go on break. And because I felt so crappy most of yesterday, I got zero schoolwork done, even though I have a good amount to do this week. I have so much Discrete Math stuff, it's ridiculous: draft of Project 2, homework #5, and an assignment. And, ok, that doesn't sound like much, but when the assignments tend to take 5+ hours alone, all of that is a lot of work. At least I don't actually have any midterms or papers or anything; I had a midterm on Friday in Cognitive Psych (which I actually think went really well), and that's pretty much it.
