well, i had an interesting evening. i had acting from 3-5pm where I had to perform a preview of a scene with my partner. I had to yell at lot, so it was no surprise that I had a sore throat afterwards. Well, I go to dinner then go for help on my essay then to the libray computers where I was looking up sources for my paper due tomorrow at 5pm. At around 8 pm, i started getting hot and cold at the same time. I checked my forehead, and it felt warm but I wasn't concerned. I left the library at around 10pm and felt really bad walking back to my dorm in the rain.
I get there and I'm talking to people online when I really start getting hot and cold and I had turned up the heating in the room. So I IMed my RA to ask if she had a thermometer and she said no, but she would run down to the Devil's Den (our little shop on campus) to get one. She gets back and I take my temperature. Almost 102. So, I decide to go to the hospital.
I get there, feeling like ****, they take my blood pressure, oxygen level, and my temperature, which turned out to be 102.5 now. Well, they tested me for strep throat and that came out negative and they gave me a shot of some sort of form of ibuprofen (like tylenol). That brought my temp. down to 101 and they gave me some ibuprofen to take every 6 hours with food or if there is pain. so, I lefted the hospital after being in it for a little over an hour. and my RA waited in the reception room for me. (I have to get her a gift). so, now I'm in my room, typing to you all.
The worst thing is that when i was laying on the bed and they were asking me questions, they asked me what religious denomination did i prefer. I thought only people who are dying get asked that question (turns out everyone should get asked that question when they are in the emergencey room, no matter what is wrong). So, that scared the **** out of me. And I was bawling. and i couldn;t use my cell phone to call my mom (who is a nurse and was working a night shift at her hospital in NJ).
but the only cool thing is that i have a little bracelet on my wrist. keeping it for tomorrow. I'm lucky thanksgiving break starts tomorrow and i get to go home. lol. Oh, and i found an email from greg about something when i got back so that made my day, night whatever.
so, that was my night. and I have to finish up a paper due at 5pm tomorrow, but I am taking a shuttle to the train station at 3 and I still have to pack. Yay for me!
yeah.
So, how is everyone else?

-Dre- You must remember all the same that at the crux of every game is knowing when it's time to leave the table... And it's important to be artful in your exit. No turning back, you must accept the con is done... It was a ball, it was a blast. And it's a shame it couldn't last. But every chapter has to end, you must agree.

There's a special kind of people known as show people. We live in a world full of dreams. Sometimes we're not too certain what's false and what's real. But we're seldom in doubt about what we feel.
