OMGWTF

November 14th, 2006

The past few weeks I've found myself doing things very out of character. Like avoiding work I know I have to do in order to do something really pointless. I usually never do this, and the past couple weeks I've caught myself doing it constantly. I've just felt odd and sort of ill.

Well, last night around 8 o'clock, as I was about to get out of my last class, I started feeling really strange. I'm not sure how to describe it. It was sort of like being on drugs, but at the same time it felt as if I were being altered. As I was walking towards my car I found myself sort of stumbling every few steps and my back felt like it was being pressed on.

Haha, so that was pretty weird. My thought process was still normal, but I was having to compensate for these physical hiccups. I drove home, cautiously, and crawled into bed, but I wasn't able to sleep. My body temperature was rapidly switching between really hot and really cold.

Then it got weird. There was a moment where I started thinking about death, and if I died what I would have wanted people to have known. Not specific individuals, but more of a summation of what I thought was important in life. Sort of advice.

My first instinct was to lay still and not move, but I forced myself to get some paper and a pen and wrote out the thoughts I was having. Something about this act helped calm me down. I think it also forced me to reevaluate the things I think are important to being happy.

Anyway, the rest of the night I barely slept and just sort of laid in my bed feeling this way. I tried to diagnose what was wrong with me and I was almost sure it was a fever, but when I woke up the next morning I felt relatively normal. It also felt like I shed whatever was making me feel like someone else. I guess that sounds kind of dramatic, but I dunno, believe it or don't.

I still have a bit of a headache and I'm coughing a little, so I don't know what is wrong.

But yah, that was fun. Also, De La Soul is awesome.
