Spring 2015 - Day 71

Today I was useless. I woke up to my alarm for my 8am class, felt like I was dying and went back to sleep. I slept until my 10:50 class and blogged during the whole thing. Then I went to lunch and just ate soup. Then I went back to sleep and slept all afternoon until art class. 

 

I really dislike the piece I am working on in class so I spent most of it trying not to fall asleep and trying to figure out something different to do. 

 

On the way to dinner I decided that it would be good for me to sit in the steam room in the spa. So I went up to the spa to ask about it. Girl days are A days, which is tomorrow. I am going to go and hopefully sweat my illness out of me. 

 

After dinner I finally felt a little better and went to an explorers seminar about hiking Mt. Kilimanjaro. Two people on our voyage did it with SAS students they met sailing in '02. 

 

They showed film that they had crudely put together of all of the footage they took while hiking. It too them 9 days to summit and descend. It was really interesting and made me think about if I could ever climb a mountain. 

 

After the seminar I went to the Red Sea ice cream social. I used to be a sea captain for the red sea but I seem to have been over ruled by the people who are now in charge. They also removed me from the one event I signed up for. 

 

It was frustrating and felt a lot like a popularity contest. I am no longer in high school so I left the social right after I ate my ice cream. 

 

Clearly I am a little bitter about it but I don't like being pushed to the sidelines. 

 

Whatever. 

 

After that I just went to bed. I took more cold meds and hoped that I would be able to sleep through the night.
