I decided to go see my friends for an hour and boy, was that a bad idea! I’d been feeling well during the afternoon and early evening, and then I started getting lightheaded and nauseous, just really really sick and pale and scary-looking. I had my friends call me a cab so I could make it back home…
I am definitely not going out any farther than my classes. Learned my lesson.
So my monthly stipend with Air Liquide is not that hot— 750 euros/month— but I have my $500 monthly allowance, so that comes to about 1100 euro per month for me to piss away. Considering other people are getting paid over $6,000 for their summer internships, I’m getting paid peanuts, but whatevs. As long as I have enough money to do what I want over there, I’m fine.
The other not-so-hot thing is that it starts in July. I thought it was starting in June, so now I need to figure out what the fuck I’m doing for that month, because I really, really don’t want to go to PR. Maybe I’ll travel a bit?
I mean, if I’m spending a summer in Europe, I want nice pictures to show for it.
Maybe, if I hint at it, my dad will get it for me…
• Tuesday night, I woke up literally panicking because I was dreaming about a distillation problem that was underdetermined and I needed to find a way to solve it and it wasn’t working out.
• Last night, I dreamed that the Air Liquide people called me saying they’d made a mistake and were taking back their offer for an internship.
I sort of miss getting little sleep. Little sleep means no time for dreaming!
I feel so lucky to have a father who worries enough to get on a plane for 4 hours and spend the weekend taking care of me. I’ve been getting sick a lot more since I came to MIT, and I usually tough it out alone— although the last time I was chronically ill (the flu) Dale helped a bit— but it’s just really nice to have someone there to make sure I’m doing better.
Fuck, I’m all emo now.
A hot guy with a lisp. Like, you see him and you lose your breath because he is so, so gorgeous, and then he starts talking and you’re like, “Ugh, he has a lisp.”
Also: Wedding rings. Nothing like having a cute TA and seeing he’s married.
Still at Medical, still feeling like shit.

I feel like sending you a receipt for all the birth control I bought but never got to use.
This is what it feels like to pay for BC and not get laid.
Seriously, this was my favorite show during high school; I wish it was still on the air!
I’ve been officially diagnosed with mono! Tests and everything!
Great. In addition to missing my oral presentation tomorrow, I also don’t get to go to the pub. I am so, so sad.
Someone wrote me this:

I don’t even know what this person is talking about, but I am getting flashbacks from this one bitch on Intervention who was on alcohol and meth and she would write the most awesomely stupid shit and invent her own math. Anybody remember her? She was a stripper or something, and lived in her parents’ guesthouse?
