I'm sick, you're sick, we're all sick

As you know, I'm sick.  I don't feel good, and all I want to do is crawl into my bed and sleep until I'm not ill.  Unfortunately I can't.  I have to get up and do my homework, which is lame, cause I was just on Spring Break and I got sick at the end of it.  People think it's because I spent so much time around the kids¹.  The only person I was around that was sick was this woman that I work with and if she's the one that got me sick, I'll be pissed.  Well honestly, I'm pissed that I'm sick either way cause 1. I don't like being sick and 2. being sick makes me miss a lot of my life.

Oh yea, I remember why I was originally typing.  I HATE it when people in my family are sick and they don't stay in their rooms.  When I'm sick, I hibernate in my room only to leave for food breaks and bathroom breaks.  But my sister, Danielle², has no respect for the others living in our house.  She sits in the living room watching tv, using the blankets that everyone uses, while laying on the couch that everyone sits on.

ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!?!

Seriously, go in your room.  You have a laptop, bring a DVD if you want to watch a movie.  When you're not sick, wash your sheets and stuff and you won't have to worry about keeping the germs around you.  That's just rude and inconsiderate to the rest of your family by coughing, sneezing, and blowing your nose in common areas of the house.

I'm done.

When will this end?

I don't really have much to say since I haven't done anything to have something to talk about.  So I'll keep it with an update of my health, and let you go back to your day.

It's Monday morning around 11:30 and I am still in bed.  I went to bed early (around 10pm) on Saturday and have been in bed ever since.  The fever went down, which is nice, but I haven't taken my temperature recently so I don't know what it's at.

I did get out of bed twice yesterday.  Both times were to eat something and pee.  As I was never hungry yesterday, I know that going a whole day without food is not a good move on my part.  I can't let illness rule my life.

I'm done.

Day 1 of The Ferocious Fever

Yesterday I made a comment that I was going to bed early because I was feeling a bit ill.  Well, guess what?  I woke up this morning with a fever.  My head is throbbing, I have a horrible cough, my body keeps shaking with the chills, and my eyes ache when open.

I've now been in bed for 12 hours.  I fell asleep early thinking that if I got enough sleep last night then I'd be ok today.  I was wrong.  Now I lay awake in bed, with my eyes closed, typing away my feelings.  I have so much homework I have to accomplish today.  I had all of spring break to complete it, and typical me, I waited until the last minute (or at least day) to start working on it.

I have no desire to go out driving, but I've left my sewing machine at Dunielle's¹ house this weekend.  The worst part is that I need my machine for my homework today.  Really, I should have been doing it earlier in the week.

Today's goal, if I can accomplish anything, is to complete my illustration homework and get my wearable art garment completed.  I don't need a sewing machine for either one of those, so I can get it tomorrow².

Sorry it's short, but I'm going to go take some meds and go lay down again.  This fever will be sweat out³.

I'm done.

¹ I mentioned Dunielle in my last entry, but never explained who she was.  She's this amazing girl that I met one night while out with  a good friend from High School.  We hit it off, and have been hanging out since then.

³ Slight reference to Panic! at the Disco's first album entitled The Fever you can't sweat out Which I am listening to right now. ;)

The Start of the Begining

Let me start by trying to explain who I am.

My name is Bryan and I'm 20 years old.  I live in Schaumburg, IL with my parents and two sisters.  I'm studying fashion design at Harper Community College in a neighboring town (Palatine).  Besides going to school full-time, I'm also working for KASPER.¹  My title is Trips & Enrichment Coordinator, but basically I plan the field trips that the kids go on when they have a day off from school.

Here's my weekly schedule:

Monday- 9am-3pm Work

3:30-5:10pm Illustration Class 

5:30-11pm Homework² 

Tuesday- 9am-5pm Work

5:15  Drive Rachel³

6pm-9pm Hanging out with Robert⁴

Wednesday- 10-2:30pm Wearable Art Class

3-10pm Homework⁵

Thursday-  9-4pm Work

5-10pm Leather Class

Friday- 9-5pm Work

6pm-Saturday Hang out with Dunielle

Saturday- Homework⁶

Sunday- Homework⁷

Now you have kind of an idea of what I have on my plate.  I have many things to talk about, but to be honest, I just don't feel like continuing to type.  I'm starting to not feel well, I think I may be getting a cold, which I really, REALLY don't want.  So I'm going to call it a night, take some meds and go to bed.

I'm done.

¹ Kids After School Program with Enrichment and Recreation

² Probably watching YouTube videos

³ Rachel is a neighbor girl I drive home on Tuesday evening

⁴ A friend that I met during the Harper fashion show last year.  I also ran into him at an event in Chicago.  I think it was Market Days, which got us start talking and hanging out.

⁵ Same as number 2

⁶ Probably not accomplishing much, maybe watching YouTube, probably going and getting something to eat.

⁷ Eat and wander around my house while the sun is up.  Maybe make an excuse to go to the store, and when sun down comes along, I actually start my homework.
