I went to the doctor's yesterday after school cuz I wasn't feeling well. I have strep throat. In the evening, yesterday evening that is, I felt horrible. I was in bed for the rest of the day, I only got up to take a shower. Literally. My throat was on fire, I had a fever of 101.2, a migraine, and I was super tired (I swear I fell asleep like 5 times during this movie I was watching...and now I don't even remember which movie it was lol). The medicine I was prescribed tastes okay I guess...but the aftertaste was disgusting. I have to take it twice a day for ten days. I'm not gonna be sick that long, but I have to take it that long to make sure my body gets rid of all the germs and bacteria and stuff. Plus, my "stomache ache" started yesterday, too. Today, I feel better though. No fever, no migraine, hardly any sore throat. But something nasty happened. If you don't want to know, skip this next paragraph.

No, I didn't upchuck anything. When I woke up, I felt something stuck in my throat. It annoyed me. Like, every time I'd breath in and out, I could feel something going up and down or something. After breakfast, I could feel it higher in my throat, so I went in the bathroom and spit it out in the sink. It was SO UTTERLY DISGUISTING. It was a big mound of yellowish mucus looking crap. I was so freaked out. Turns out that it was the stuff that would have been sticking to my throat if I hadn't taken the medicine. So I guess the medicine does work.

Okay, back to non-horrifying stuff. I'm still gonna go to school on Monday, because I feel a whole heck-of-a-lot better today. And if I gave anything to my fellow classmates, I'm deeply sorry... rofl
