Slight Frustration

This week went pretty well. Monday was my birthday, woohoo! I received some nice care packages from both my sister and my parents. My Facebook profile page was inundated with birthday wishes. Thanks, everyone! The same day, however, we also had a crit in Design Studio. Now, we all know that my last critique did not go very well. The professors had serious issues with my model, especially the "spine"-like element that organized the various spaces within the model.  This time, however, I received very positive reviews. Professor Ruff muttered "Good job" to me in passing. Talk about a confidence booster! I've still got to upload all of the pictures I've taken.. Sorry guys! 


Here's the frustrating part: my immune system decided to go completely wonky around Wednesday. It started with a sore throat, but gradually evolved into chills and fever. I paid a little visit to the Student Health Center, which accessible only through a long walk, in the heat, from my dorm on the other side of campus. So, with a fever, and high temperatures outside, I trudged to the corner of Willow and Audubon street. By that point, I had a fever of 102.5 and a persistent sore throat. They diagnosed me, I believe, with strep throat. The doctor sent me on my way with antibiotics and encouraged me to get rest, rather than going to class. That my illness made me miss both studio and a physics test frustrated me to no end. C'est la vie........
