So, turns out that the medicine I was given, strong stuff at that, did not defeat whatever wracks my body with coughs.

I’m thinking of just requesting to have somebody decapitate me. Anybody know any good swordsmen? People say the axe hurts more. Or should I guillotine it? Supposedly the French were really good at sword-style beheadings…

While in truth I am jesting, it is incredibly frustrating to feel just as lousy as I did before. I hate being sick- I feel exhausted from nothing. I haven’t been able to go to the gym, go to class, work, etc.- my entire life has been monopolized by things too small for my eyes to see!

Well, I’m off to hack my way through another night. Adieu!
