Been sick for the last 3 weeks.. but just a minor cold, nothing big, until Monday evening.. BOOOOOOOOOOOOOM 101 fever and one of my ears clogged up. Skipped school for the first time in 6 years (sickness related) and went to the doctor. I got some HARDCORE pills to treat my ear infection and my fever. The medicine is so strong to me that I go brain dead for 24 hours and I look like a pale zombie I also get extremly dizzy and my balance is screwed up. Well, the side effects make me pretty useless and I had a lot of homework due the day i go back.

whahahahhaha then on Wednesday morning I felt like crap also, and stayed home again. Just watched TV, talk to Mike online, post a little, sleep a lot etc. Then evening came and I went to sleep at about 9:30. after a while, i heard a popping sound kind of like firecrackers in my right ear, what I felt in my left ear the day before. just my luck, i had ear infections on BOTH ears. my hearing sucks.. less than half of what it used to be. not to mention everything is unclear so people have to talk really clear and i must concentrate to hear, or else i don't.

woke up on thursday, took the medicine, started getting dizzy and swaying from side to side, slept, then it hit me, i would have to do homework. it was horrible. i misspelled so many words (spelled gorilla groilla), jumbled up sentences, mixed up words, repeated myself, yeah, it looked pretty bad. but i was so dizzy so i just went to bed.

woke up today, coouldn't miss one more day of school so i went, took my medicine before i left. i actually felt ok, 60-65% ish and no more fever according to the nurse. but as the day dragged on, i became pale and dizzy and i actually hallucinated twice, i thought someone entered the bathroom, then i went inside, and no one was there. twice!! i had to sleep throguh 3 classes to get through the day. i couldn't even finish my lunch. so finally, at 2:30 one of my family members came to pick me up. black/black honda accord with cloth seats. we were headed home whenthe family member wanted to stop by the bank. usually the family member was quick so i agreed and tried to smile. still mighty dizzy in the car. BOY waas i wrong.. hahaha the family member was gone for 15 minutes and i was left in the car, baking to a crisp. i opened the door, but there was no wind, i was going to step outside a few times, but i always thought that the family member would come back so i wouldn't need to. stupid mistake i got home, i was dizzy, i was red and pale at the same time, measured the temperature, 102 O_O 102 and extremely dizzy are not good friends. my wording was slurred like i was drunk but i slept for 3 hours and i feel better now. just wanted to share and make sure that i am still sane by spelling correcllylt and making my grammer correct.

He's extremely good, obviously the most famous, but once you get up to that level of playing, it's hard to differentiate who's better or who's not, because everyone has their own style of playing, most people probably think he is the "best" cellist, but i like Mstislav Rostropovich

George, your a swimmer, right? If the fever persists, you should of course, see a Doctor. Try using 90% isopropyl alcohol in each ear when done swimming. 70% is no good, must be the 90%...apply with an eyedropper...fill each ear then pat dry...alcohol evaporates, takes the water with it...you prolly knew this.....
