masterofmidgetsSo my lungs ache from coughing so much, my nose won't stop running, and I have been sneezing so hard I actually woke myself up.
...this bodes well for my immune system's ability to cope with spring term in California. Yeah. (and no, I am not getting sick. I've done this enough to tell the difference! And besides, aside from my respiratory system trying to kill me, I feel perfectly fine.)
Antihistamines have been taken (I may have to go in for a second dose though >.<), and honestly, I'm almost kind of relieved about this? I mean, it really sucks and I hate it, but at least I'm used to dealing with this kind of allergy attack, and maybe it will mean this is par for this year and I won't get the horrible headaches of death like I did last year spring quarter. Because those were nigh on unendurable (especially since they were so far out of my realm of experience), and one of the reasons I did so badly in my classes, and just...yeah, I never want to do that again. I would happily trade watery eyes and not being able to breathe for that.
In the meantime, I shall not let my body's attempted self-destruct deter me from my plans today, which include a swing through the student bookstore and an epic shopping trip to acquire wonderful groceries with which to fill my fridge. Go me!
