7:53am MVT Wednesday 08 June 2005

I forgot to mention that my GPS fell into the pool. Though it is described as waterproof, it quit working. It's conceivable that it will start working after it dries out, but I dunno.

11:01am

Just finished the fourth lesson for my first class. There's one old cat who's funny and old and does his own thing. He's going to have a birthday in a few days, so a couple days ago, I was like, "hey guys, he's going to have a birthday in a couple days; let's have a party!" and we all agreed that we would keep it a secret, etc.

But then today, at the end of class, the other old guy, who is not as old, but still older than me, was like, "hey, uh, Shunji, by the way, I forgot when your birthday is..." and the class went silent like, that is not exactly the way to keep things a SECRET, you know. but we ignored it and him as if nothing was unusual, but it's like, "c'mon man; even if *you* forgot when his birthday is, none of *us* forgot!"a

5pm MVT Wednesday 08 June 2005

I don't think it's related to the rocking, but I've definitely got diarreah. Not sure what it could be. I'm pretty sure it's not from the rocking, but I have a guess that's a bit more related from not drinking enough water yesterday.

7:40pm

During the GET meeting I got up and went to the restroom and diarreahed and then vomitted. Got up, cleaned up, rinsed my mouth out, then went back to the meeting.

Now I'm in the infirmary waiting waiting waiting waiting.

8:07pm

They didn't know I was waiting. I'm feeling chills and chillin' on the doctor's toilet before I'm stuck on the bed for an hour while I get an infusion. The doctor looked in my throat and said he didn't think I was dehydrated.

9:25pm

I'm squinty eyed, looking at the clock. I've just had my infusion. The first time she tried to insert the needle, it was like fucking KILLER pain like I don't know where the hell she was trying to stab me but it felt like right into muscle and everything. I was like, "oh god why does it hurt so bad?" and she readjusted and when she tried again it was no worries. I wonder how much it will bruise.

She said I can sleep for an hour so I'm like yay. Good night.

10:35pm

Nurse should be back soon. I just had another diarreah festival and nearly passed out again. There's this process that happens, like I get really really woozy and the sweat just starts to pour out, just gushing out. I wonder why it happens, but it's pretty interesting to feel my skin activating like that.

11:45pm

My energy seems pretty low. Nurse Yuki let me sleep for another hour. I told her I diarreahed again, and she was like, "poor thing" but I wasn't telling her to get attention; I was telling her to help give her information about my status. She said I should have someone cover my classes tomorrow. I don't intend to do that, but I do intend to go to bed now.
