What a day!

Hello everyone,

So, I'm sitting here on my couch crying! Literally crying!


I felt off all day yesterday and finally at 2:00 a.m. my body took over and told me yep, you have the flu. I sure do hate throwing up :( So, after hardly sleeping all night, and feeling like poop all day (yes, I'm a couch potato today), I randomly decided to check my school email really hoping for my psychology paper mark.

And guess what! To my excitement it was up! I opened up the email, and I got a 85%! AND, it was a 5% deduction for being 1 day late, so technically my paper was a 90%. You have no idea how good that feels. I've been so discouraged lately with school and finances (I had to quit my hip hop lessons yesterday :( )and now being sick right when I have 2 exams and 2 papers left this week, that 85% really made my day. I started bawling on my couch because I was so happy and relieved.


What a silly thing, eh? A high mark for a paper makes me cry. I'm telling ya, this was the boost I needed.


Another really great thing was that Evanna surprised me with a single red rose yesterday evening with three helium balloons and some chocolates. It was so sweet. I really do have great friends. I even woke Mandy up at 4:30 this morning and she prayed with me because I was throwing up. Now that's a good friend, she didn't even complain once, and she had to work the entire day.

So despite the lack of energy, and my stomach being in knots, I feel hopeful. Things will be okay!

I love and appreciate all you guys,

Thanks for being such good friends,

xo
