My Thursday began pretty cheery. I took part in a Psychology Research Study which only lasted about 4 minutes. It took me quite a while to find the room though. I've already been in this school for about a month and a half and there are still parts of it that I've never seen. In the midst of getting completely lost, I discovered this cozy lounge in McNally Main. It's pretty quiet there so it's a nice place to relax. Hopefully I'll be able to find it again! So this survey earned me 1 bonus point for Mind and Brain ! =] Happy Me! I was bummed because I missed the first study that I qualified for and I didn't fit the criteria for any of the others that kept coming in after that. I checked later that afternoon and !! :O ! More Studies were up !! I signed up for 2 more. So I'll be getting 5 Bonus POints in total =] and I am Happy with it! Will keep looking for more opportunities.
I went over to the library for the first time today. Got into a cubicle and laid all my stuff there. I did work for 4 hours ! I was proud of myself =] ! . But then... I began to feel sick. =[ . I developed a cough and a headache too. =[... and I looked like a mess.. I couldn't get any practice done for my Calculus recitation the next day.. but it turned out to be easy enough.
I had to visit the students center in the Rain !! The wind was so strong on my way back to Loyola that I literally had to take 1 step every two seconds! sigh*. So i got drenched. A while after I had my chem lab, which didn't turn out bad at all. It lasted longer than I expected it to.. was done all the way at 5:30, but I didn't mind..
Two of the elevators to Loyola Residence are DOWN.. so you can imagine the wait to finally get to my dorm room.. Right now I'm just laying on my bed with a sore throat. The coughs are still there but at least the headache's gone.. My roommate's gone for the weekend so I'm here on my own. I need to get my lab done and study for my Chem exam on friday... I really want to do good in that one.. My Calculus exam is coming up soon too and I'm struggling with LImits! It's the most annoying thing I've encountered so far. I guess that's just because I haven't grasped it properly yet... I'll work it out. It's no use whining about it when I do nothing to try to understand it better..
For the while I'm still trying to deal with this Whatever it is. I hate feeling this way. But at least it's now and not during exams.. Hopefully my immune system will get a boost from this and I'll be fine all winter. HopeFUlly.
