I'm feeling better

The sickness is basically gone! YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! My voice is still improving, but other than that there are no issues that I'm facing. One interesting that I noticed is that I lost weight while I was sick. This usually only happens when I get a stomach virus. I guess since I was taking in less food than usual, this makes sense. I was eating soup and Jello for lunch and dinner for two days straight.....go figure. I'm actually hungry for real food. It's always interesting for me to make the transition from soft food back to real food. It feels awkward at first, but you gradually build yourself back up to eating real food. I have heard that a good percentage of the students over at Clemson are suffering from illnesses similar to mine. Whether it's the actual flu or a touch of it, illness has been in the news lately. All I can say is that my heart goes out to people like me who have been suffering from the "Carolina Crud" or are just now starting to suffer from it. My advice to anyone who is feeling sick: go out and buy food and ginger-ale, get a heating pad (since your back will be sore from lying down all the time), get some advil and decongestant medicine, and have some wet cloths ready when you burn up from fever. I just love to be the bear of bad things in life! (lol.)
