what up gangsta’s
brief news update, basically just for ‘proof of life’.
so, i was going for a different type of internship but alas i can no longer claim ‘med-kit free since 93’ as lydia and i have been proudly announcing to all who care.
so i am humbled indeed…
for the last week or two i had unknowingly been rocking either strep throat, tonsillitis or a general ‘something swollen and not right’*** as diagnosed by lydia, myself, a sweet flashlight and the internet. i knew it hurt to swallow but didnt think much of it until one day when some of the Filipino’s were complaining about how hot it was but i felt totally fine… this was NOT normal. lydia figured out that it was because i had a fever, cause shes pretty AND smart and really just the whole (internship partner) package.
so anyways, i was sick*** (SEE PICTURE: its the best pic i could get – but check; left tonsil is like 3X the size as the right)
not cool throat…
feverishly not cool…
now, it may or may not have had something to do with a friday night of karaoke followed by a sunday night of videoke but really, is there a problem, or anyone that can be blamed for two fantastic nights of screaming air supply and queen songs? i think we all know the answer…
so that…
+
a general lack of sleep due to roosters, dogs, occasionally fearing for my well-being at 3am
and all that “3rd world” jazz
=
no celine dion solos or appetite for a week
so now the med- kit is officially opened and i dont even care cause i feel like a million pesos!
ALSO if i hadn’t gotten sick then i never would have remembered all the sweet stuff thats in there! now i can either sell it off to buy more illegal DVD’s… OR…. have a 1990’s themed rave sometime before i leave…. both good options.
so all around its safe to say, praise the Lord for free drugs!
now – on another topic

ok well, i hope you’re well!
(are you well?)
well wishes and happy friday night… it was a good one!
Your camera took a really good picture of those tonsils. Looks like you might need to have those back teeth removed too. Does the med-kit have dental tools too?
d – last time i was there the dentist suggested that i get them removed but the med-kit hasnt equipped us for that (not cool med-kit, not cool). but there are a bunch of guys in my neighbourhood that look like they have sharp objects on them so maybe if i asked polity they could do it… so that, or get my kidney removed first so i can sell it and afford to get it done right… thats where we’re at for options… or… you’ll be a student again soon, you;ll need money (or a kidney). hmmm?
I’ll keep it as a financial option. Maybe when every other financial option dries up 😉
