Sick

I just found out yesterday that I have mono. I woke up Thursday morning with a terrible sore throat, so I went to the doctor and got diagnosed with strep... and then they called yesterday to tell me I have mono. I'm not thrilled to have it, but it has its pros and cons. I'm super tired all the time. I sleep like 14 hours a night, and I eat nothing. Absolutely nothing. Today I ate some lettuce, the day before a piece of toast. Tomorrow I plan on eating a salad. Plus no one confronts me about not eating because I'm sick. And I'm never hungry. I get kind of hungry at 6ish, so I eat a snack and then I'm good till the next day! I hoping to lose 10lbs from this. I've already lost 4.

I also looked at a few apartments today with some friends. I still haven't heard about the RA position so I decided to start looking at houses. The ones I saw were really nice for student apartments. One was really big and well lit. It was definitely my favourite. Plus the bedroom I want, no one else wants. It's upstairs, unlike most of the bedrooms which are in the basement, and it has TWO closets. No one wants it because it can't fit a desk and a double bed, but I could care less. I want the closet space. But I need to figure out the RA thing first before I get into leases and bedrooms and everything. I'm getting way ahead of myself. Honestly I'd prefer the RA position. It pays the cost of food and my room (which would be a double - all to myself), and there would be less of a chance of people noticing what I eat. If I live off-campus I have to pay food and rent, and I know my friends will be on my back about food. They've been really annoying about it lately, but they've been better since they heard I was sick.

I don't really have much more to say and I'm exhausted so I'm going to go to bed. At 10pm. On a Saturday. Definitely on the con list of having mono.

I hope you're all doing well!

Blackberry!!

Hi everyone,

I got my blackberry and go far I am loving it. I'm just a little confused about how to use it. I've figured out all the basic stuff, but I still can't figure out how to move files from my computer to my phone. Or how to download ringtones, change themes, change background pictures, and much much more. But my best friend also got a blackberry pearl recently so we're kind of figuring it out together.

My mom brought me this huge cake for my birthday yesterday and I basically just dumped it in my floor lounge so my floor would eat it. I did have a piece, but it was pretty tiny. It's probably the reason why I'm still stuck at 168. Anyway, I figured out what to do for my birthday! I'm going to a pub downtown for a drink or two and then to the bar. There's only one bar here so I don't really have much choice. Apparently it's somewhat busy on Tuesdays, so I do get to go out dancing on my birthday!

I woke up so late today and I haven't eaten anything yet. I've got to finish up this paper for my class today and then go to that class, so I'll only be eating supper today. My goal is to eat under 300 calories. So maybe just some salad and a glass of soy milk.

I've really got to get back to the paper I'm writing, but I hope everyone is doing well!
