Julie esta muy enferma...

Last week I woke up Monday morning with a bad stomach ache and ended up being sick all week with one of the worst stomach aches I'd ever had. (if you've ever been to a foreign country and drank the water or ate food you weren't supposed to and got really sick for a week, THATS what it felt like for me last week)
Anyways, so I was all better Saturday and Sunday and was preparing myself mentally to work my ass off and catch up on all the school work I couldn't do while I was lying in my bed moaning in pain for a week... n then I start to feel a lil scratchiness in my throat Sunday night and through Monday... "prolly just a cold," I thought to myself...
Until Tuesday afternoon while I'm in my computer class (which is always a warm classroom because of all the computers) and I started getting chills (fever)... My mom told me I might have the flu and to get  rapid tested at the health center but by the time I got there the lab was closed. So I came back wednesday afternoon, not really feeling horrible or at least not feeling like I had the flu, and to my surprise miss doctor lady tells me "yup, you got it"... I was like "waaa?? huh?? you jokin right?" she was a friendly doctor lady so I thought that she might just be pulling my leg... "nope you've got the flu"....
"FRICK!!.... ugh... no!... sigh.... WHY!? why me?" I have the WORST luck. I told doctor lady how I was sick all last week too and that this week was supposed to be my catch up week. so she gave me a lovely cocktail of flu and poor Julie drugs and sent me on my way...

The irony of it all is that this was the first year in my whole life that I forgot to get my flu shot....

But because of all my meds, I am actually doing a lot better than I thought I would be. but I'm still super behind in my classes. I have 1 unfinished sculpture, 1 unfinished abstract painting, I'm behind in my shampoo bottle designs, and I am 2 weeks behind on my backpack design for studio. And on top of that I wanted to try and apply for a Nike internship on the 27th and my portfolio isnt ready yet. And I leave for New Orleans in less than 2 weeks and I'm not ready for that either...

....sigh....why me?....
