Sick of Classes & Sick in Classes

Being sick as a college student is without a doubt one of the most trying things in the universe. As if I needed anything that would make it more difficult to motivate myself. During the average week I already struggle to pull myself off the couch and away from the death grip Wife Swap and Top Chef has wrenched around my attention, not to mention convince myself that I don’t have another 45 minutes to stalk pregnant girls from my high school via FaBo. Now I’m running a fever and find myself amidst more boogers than that creepy kid Sean from the 3rd grade that was always rocking a snot ‘stache. Heaven forbid I do take the 3 days recommended hiatus and rest and hydrate, then I am in over my head with make-up work. You never get sick the week where you find yourself with a break, the week with only one take home quiz. It is always the week with the presentation, 2 tests, and a review session over the topic you are totally lost on. So if you haven’t caught on I am sick. I went to the doctor on Monday because I was fairly confident I was internally combusting in my Anatomy lecture. The lecturer was having difficulty with getting the lights to the proper dimness so after turning all of the halogen lights on and off 30 times I couldn’t decide if I was ready to take notes or if I was ODing on X at a really shitty rave. So I get to the doctor and he asks me what my problem was. Shit. Shit is my problem. I feel like shit. I sound like shit. And what’s in my nose, throat, and head? SHIT. We do some tests. No mono. No strep. INFLUENZA. Who gets influenza? Am I in the back of a covered wagon on the Oregon Trail? Am I about to ford the river? Is my ox about to die? So I have spent the past 3 days asleep. I have been taking NyQuil like it’s my job. I mean I have been chugging the stuff like the guy from Crazy Town loose from the VH1’s Sober House. Today I kinda feel better. I mean I don’t feel up to cartwheel contests or training for a triathlon, but I bathed today, so I am a step up from where I was yesterday. Now I am looking down the throat of 3 days of make-up work, but the only thing that I have any desire to comment on is my lack of motivation. And while I think how did I get sick? Maybe it’s because college is one of the dirtiest places ever. I wake up in the morning push past my dirty laundry that is flowing into the hallway lava style and pick of my toothbrush that has been spooning my roommates for 3 weeks. I go downstairs to pick through the shoes that are piled knee high as if Mariah Carey did some spring cleaning. Walk up my college neighborhood street past garbage predominantly made of sticky Busch Light cans and Gumby’s boxes. Once I am on campus I sit in a lecture hall where 6 other students have sat today, 2 of which probably drooled a little on the desk. (Especially if it is in the Physics building. The drool rate increases in there) By the time I decide to go out I take a few swigs off a fifth that everyone else in the room has drank off, and then unwind with a few games of beer pong. Where everyone in the garage shares cups and dunks dirty ping pong balls into water so the dust and grim on the floor really sticks before it’s thrown back into the few ounces of cheap beer I plan on chugging. So between the day in my house, on campus, and capped off with a few cups of garage confetti Natty light, it’s no wonder I have fucking Influenza.

Middle School to College

Yet another text conversation between Sarah York (yorkshark.blogspot.com) and me


AP: ...I hate girls that cry in the bathroom at bars. Same girls who cried in the bathroom at the rollerrink in middle school


SY: YES. Same exact situation except the added element of alcohol. And instead of bawling about couple skating, she's bawling because her coked out boyfriend cheats on her.


AP: Exactly. It's not that she lost at limbo, she lost her Kathy purse with her iPhone in it.


SY: It's not that she didn't get asked to the dance by 'Todd', it's that Todd wants her to abort their baby so he can go to grad school and fuck smart girls.


AP: It's not that he cupped her hand instead of lacing fingers during couple skate, it's that she smoked too much laced weed in the back of someone's Explorer.


SY: It's not that he spilled nachos on her at the snack bar and didn't say sorry....it's that he stashed ecstasy in her glove box and she got pulled over.


AP: It's not that she didn't have enough money to buy glitter lipgloss, it's that her boyfriend had some other woman's glitter on his wang


SY: It's not that she got caught stealing butterfly hair clips from Claire's, it's that she got caught plagiarizing a term paper and she's getting expelled.


AP: It's not that she ended up in a shack playing 'mash', it's that she can't pay rent and will be living in a shack


SY: It's not that her box-dyed hair turned out like shit, it's that she got rejected from beauty school because she got a 6 on the ACT


AP: It's not that she got grounded from AIM for sneaking out, it's that she got a D-Dub and her license is revoked


SY: It's not that she failed her learner's permit test for the fourth time, it's that she tested positive for Hep-C after spring break


AP: That was best yet. She didn't forget her Spanish workbook pages, it was her comprehensive essay final that was two hours ago


SY: HAHA nice. It's not that she's been skipping gym class for three weeks, it's that she's been skipping periods for four months


AP: She isn't going to get detention for being late, she's going to have a 2nd string football player's child because she caught jungle fever on a Thursday and is "late"


SY: Hahaha. It's not that she's been diagnosed with a learning disability, she's been diagnosed with a severe eating disorder


AP: She isn't going to kiss her teacher's ass to get good grades, she's going to lick her prof's asshole to pass


SY: I just burst out laughing. It's not that she is hyper from too much Surge cola, she's fucked up from too much rohypnol in her drink


AP: Glad you liked that one, I did too. She isn't embarassed to be at the grocery store with her parents. They are embarassed to be with her.


SY: It's not that she backed into her mailbox on her way to cheer practice at 4 pm...it's that she ran over a homeless guy while hammered at 4 am


AP: She isn't writing 'live laugh love' on her notebook in cursive with gel pens, she's getting it tattooed on her lower back.


SY: Silent wheezing laughter. It's not that she's in detention after school, she's in jail after her sorority formal.


AP: She isn't experimenting in freshman Chem lab. She's experimenting with a freshman girl she met in Chem lab.


SY: Nice, haha. It's not that she got cut from the volleyball team, it's that she got cut from her grandma's will.


AP: HAHA oh Sarah York we are so witty. I need to sleep. I adore you I'll talk to you tomorrow


SY: Same to you, goodnight dahling.
