I'm still sick...

This morning I woke up and decided that I was too sick to go to class and in case I had something contagious, I didn't want to spread it more. Instead I looked up when the health and counselling centre on campus was open, and I gave them a call. She said that there was no way to get me in with the doctor, but after 9:30 I could just come in and see the nurse. I went in and we went through my symptoms and she gave me a pill thing of this medicine to help with some of my symptoms. She then told me to come back in the afternoon and see the doctor. Somehow she could get me an appointment, lol.

I came back to the flat and made some Maggi noodles, watched The Last Big Attraction, and took a nap before I had to go back to see the doctor. Being sick has caused me to be more homesick and all of my friends from school being back has made me Hope-sick, so that's why I watched The Last Big Attraction. (It's a funny movie by Hopwood DePree about Holland, MI and Windmill Island) I had my doctor's appointment at 2:15 and she checked my ear, throat, and eyes. She said that I have a viral infection and that at this point of my illness, antibiotics will not help. She also went on to explain about the negative pressure system that has been created in my ear. The Eustachian tube has some kind of crap blocked up in it, which leads to a negative pressure system that pulls in my eardrum causing the pain and making it harder to hear. She told me of some ear spray and nose spray that I can get at the chemists to help and to just take asprin. I guess at this point all I can do is pray that my immune system can work extra hard to fight off the virus!

I came back and haven't done too much. I listened to the lecture that I missed today on lectopia. It actually was a pretty interesting one. I also got caught up on TV shows and I am currently watching Eclipse online because I was bored and we have a poster for it in our flat for some reason so I decided to finally watch it. I just wasn't going to pay money to see it and was going to wait, but I just don't care any more. I also had more noodles for dinner and some orange juice. My eyes are starting to hurt, so when I finish watching Eclipse I will probably go to bed. Plus, I keep getting up early because I had to during the Northwest/Outback trip!
