Monday, June 15th was completely unremarkable other than the fact that it marks the one-month mark of time I have left in my apartment. Weird. I spent the day doing homework, since I was still too sick to do much else with my life. Tuesday was similar, with the only difference being that I dragged myself out of bed to go to class and was miserable in the library all day, instead of on my couch. However, when I came home, Lauren surprised me with sushi for dinner, which was amazing a) because I love sushi, b) because I didn't have to cook, and c) because she refused to let me pay her back. Love her :)
On Wednesday Lauren and I decided that staying in the apartment all day and procrastinating was not the best idea, since we were both swamped with end-of-the-semester assignments, so we woke up early and headed to the UCA library. I had planned on spending the day researching for my second paper, but my computer decided to freak out on me and couldn't figure out how to access any of the wireless networks. I was then forced to work on my other paper, which I was not as worried about, but I managed to get a significant part of it done in a couple of hours, as did Lauren. Ben showed up and joined our paper-writing party until it was time for history. Sergio was almost an hour late for class, which was annoying since we all had things we needed to be doing, but he gave us a quick review of what would be on the final and we headed out. Lauren and I went to Cafe Suarez with the intention of grabbing some dinner and settling in with our laptops for another couple hours of work, but after we finished our food and sat there waiting for the guy sitting at the only table with an outlet for over an hour, we decided it wasn't worth it and went home. Thankfully we were able to focus and get some work done before bed, but definitely not as much as we had hoped.
Thursday involved giving a slightly delirious and incoherent presentation of the paper that I had yet to write- I don't remember what I said, which is probably not a good thing, but I lived through it at any rate. I came home in between classes to work on my papers/try to nap (unsuccessfully), went back for my 6-9 class, and went home to sleep as soon as possible after that.
Friday and Saturday were spent curled up in a ball on the couch because I was too sick and exhausted to do anything (at this point, I have been sick for almost three weeks- awesome. My mom suspects it might be the flu.) Sunday was the first day that I FINALLY started feeling better (aka could walk down the hallway without having to sit down and rest, could eat solid food, etc- THANK GOD) so I took it easy all day. I called my dad to wish him a happy father's day, and also got to talk to the Vaillancourts and Grandma and Grandpa, which was great. Later that night I went out to sushi dinner/girls night with Lis, Anne, and Robin, which was a lot of fun. After dinner, Robin headed home to get some work done, but Anne and Lis and I went to see Secretos del poder, which was really good. After I got home I watched part of a movie with Joe and Lauren and went to bed.
Today is officially 40 days until I'm home again- I can't believe it's going by so fast. (Some of my friends will be home by this time next week- that's crazy!) The next week is going to insane- finals, final papers, goodbye dinners, packing, getting all my school paperwork in order, etc. Less than a week until Peru!
Today
