Learning Experience #6

Summary:
Of course, I have to write about some events that happened during the homecoming weekend! It was a really crazy weekend, indeed! On Saturday night, a group of us freshmen decided to rent a party bus that would take us to the clubroom. About 4 pm that afternoon, I started to cough and felt like I had a sore throat but I was so positive to not let that affect me because I can not ever imagine missing out on my first homecoming clubroom! I stayed positive and promised myself I would go no matter what. I took a nap, and woke up to my friends telling me to hurry up and get dressed, and I was still half awake at that point. I decided to get ready and do all of those things every girl would want to do to look their best. I did not feel any improvement but I did not care about my sickness. I rushed and got ready by time the party bus arrived. We got in and it was so hot inside with 30 of us freshmen, I started feeling worse at that point. We stopped by Chipotle (my favorite food ever!) and we ate- I started to feel better so I thought thank god I’m feeling better! I sure spoke too soon. We got back on the bus; everyone was so excited and danced while I tried to do the same but just ended up sitting down. I was too down to even enjoy my time but I tried to do my best. By the time we got to the club, I was really sick. I went into the club for only fifteen minutes and I couldn’t even stay. I just wanted to leave so bad, a friend of mine was willing to go back with me so I went back to Gallaudet University.
Response:
I know you are thinking “wow that must have sucked!” Yeah it sure sucked for me especially it is my first homecoming. I went straight to bed after I got back, and I took a temperature and I had a fever of 102 degree! I was so hot but cold at times, I kept on coughing, and my throat ached so bad. I tried to go to sleep but it was not easy especially I was hot and cold off and on. The next day, I woke up and took my temperature and I had the same degree still. I knew right there that I was really sick. I rested all day but on Monday night, I’m finally starting to feel a bit better. I’m so sad that I missed clubroom on Saturday night ☹ but hey health comes first :P
