kicking the cold in the butt

So as it turns out, I didn't end up finishing my anthro money paper on time cause I was feeling crappy and what not, so I headed to the doctor's office today. As I expected I was in for a 2 hour line (at least this time the waiting room/ office wasn't in shambles-- I went to the doctor's last semester and it was RIDICULOUS how run down it was.)for the doctor to tell me what I already knew-- you have a cold, drink soup, drink water, and rest. Really, I must have been the biggest waste of his time.At least my doctor had a sense of humor "while coming from a purely medical perspective I would reccommend you just to rest, the reality is that you are in university and will probably be dragging your carcass out of bed to get work done." I think another added plus to the visit was that he was quite gung ho with the fact that I lived in HK, hah, he was Chinese, and not surprisingly took a fatherly form asking me how exactly I was planning on putting to use a degree in Anthropology and International Development. I mean the real benefit of it all was that I got a note out of all of it (which I had to fork over 20 bucks to get!!), thus enabling me to extend my anthro money essay and my anthro native essay (a second extension lol)with out getting marks off (which really is quite key when these are final papers).

So as per to Dr. Guo's advice, I've consumed a ridiculous quantity of liquids and Vit. C today-- I'm on can of vegetable soup #2 (by the way- thats TWO servings of vegetables in there) since 3pm, 2 oranges and had probably somewhere in the range of 10 cups of lemon ginseng green tea, and lots more water. IMPRESSED? I think that in combination with my 1 hour nap half way through are doing the trick as well since I have made a considerable amont of progress on my anthro money paper!

Ocha And, I got my Oslo app in time. Yeah! Just have to wait a couple of weeks to see what happens in terms of interviews. I really hope that I make the cut for SOME sort of bursary, cause really if I don't come up with 3,800 canadian bucks... Oslo isn't happeneing.
