Panadol is the fucking shit. Seriously. I felt kinda sick for the first time since I've been in America, feeling a fever coming on. I make it through the five hours of class that I have since I get the feeling, get back to the dorm and down 2 Panadols that have been sitting, untouched, in my drawer since August. 2 hours later, the feeling's gone.

Apparently my fingerprints didn't match up to the last time I visited the US. Either I placed my ( Read more... )

I've been procrastinating like a motherfucker about blogging this, kinda because pretty much everyone else already has, kinda because I'm really frickin' lazy, kinda because I don't even know what to write about. So I'm just going to keep on typing and see what the fuck happens ( Read more... )
