16 Jan. Failing Bodies

After 6 months of relatively health-filled months in Argentina and 2 weeks of holiday festivities my body finally gave up on Monday January 7^th when I woke up at 6 am with a retched flu. I spent the next two days drinking water and flat sprite.

The flu was followed by a body-ache filled cold, followed by bronchitis which was then followed by a round of antibiotics. The pitiful 5-day dose of antibiotics was doomed to fail and thus came the sinus and ear infections. All of this came to a climatic finale with my third trip to the doctor and horse-size antibiotics.

And now I find school dauntingly in my near future. And I’m just not sure my body nor my mind is ready.
