So I am really sorry that it has been like two years since I last posted something. I must say that I have been sick for the past 4 days or so. Over the weekend I could not even move b/c I ached all over. I was like hacking up a lung or two as well. Michael had to call a doctor for me. I could not really understand what he said was wrong with me b/c he did not speak very good english. I could only understand throat infection. I am getting much better though. I can talk now. I am just having a sneezing issue or two. I was sitting in greek class and ancient culture class and I had a tickle in my nose that would not go away all day so I was sneezing the entire time. My cough is getting better. I don't think I will ever know what my problem was. All I know is that I had to spend 123 euros just on health things in less than 24 hours. I really did not want a doc b/c I knew that would be 100 euros alone but Michael insisted. I also had a high fever. I could not move in any way. Bry had to make me food when I could finally eat it which was yesterday. I could not eat for two days b/c it would not stay in me. She also went to get my medicine on Monday when everything was like closed for Clean Monday. Luckily she found one pharmacy that was open with the help of the front desk person. That person also helped her translate how much of the meds I was supposed to take every time. hehehehehe. I was like so sad b/c I was missing all the fun and could not see anyone so they would not get sick. However, the night before I got sick all of us girls went to eat sushi and it was f*****ing amazing. I had this sweet and sour fish stuff and omg. So good! Then that night I just hung out in 26. I did not go to mount olympus this weekend either obviously due to the illness. There are like 4 people sick right now just within the group. I missed the kite flying and that was sad. However, I have been partying it up with my 3 greatest guys in the entire world (Dino, Peter, and Nick). Pics coming on Friday. Yesterday (the first day I could actually get out) we had a field trip to the Parthenon. That was fun. Rachel also took me to a huge supermarket and I felt like I was in heaven b/c the ones I go to are so incredibly small. Greek class as usual is a total blast. This weekend is Santorini and let me tell you how psyched I am. However, the archaeological site there is closed due to the accident the had last year with a roof of something collapsing and killing a tourist. So that sux that we cannot go. It obviously sux for the tourist who died as well. Oh well. What ya gonna do. Oh yea I know.......NOT BUILD ROOFS OVER ARCHAEOLOGICAL SITES! (Who would have ever thought of that. That would make toooooooo much sense) Ok I think that is it for now. I will talk to everyone later.
