I'm so screwed now.

I can barely think hard enough to do my Topology assignment and that's my strongest class. Not to mention a Probability midterm tomorrow that I was on my way to being prepared. :cry:

I hope I pass the midterm. :cry:

I'm so useless right now.

Going to bed soon. :-p But so cold in my room. :cry:

That's what I'm doing now.

I have the heater running in my room to warm it up. It's freaking damn cold in this house. My room is in the basement and I bet the temperature hovers around 13-16 degrees Celsius!

I have my pyjamas by the heater to warm that up too.

Well it going on summer here. I melt the moment i step outside (thank you father for the irish pale skin), I have my wonderful air conditioner set at 26C and it's running almost 24/7 for the last week.

Your situation really sucks, i hope you get better.

JR, I sorry to hear that you are ill. You need Chicken soup, and I'll throw in one of my habaneros. I hope you get well soon.

Hey! Thanks. Sounds good too, but might be too spice. :-p

I feel much better today. I was able to redo some things for my Topology Assignment. Although it's not complete, it's better. Now, I'm just focusing on my midterm now.

Cheers. :biggrin:
