I woke up this morning with a sore throat. For breakfast, I made myself a part OJ, part water, and Emergen-C drink. That was about 2,000 mg of Vitamin C, and then I think I’ve taken two more Vitamin C pills (each 500 mg) throughout the day. I’ve spread them out, because I know that my body can only absorb so much at a time. The Real Age doctors suggest taking 500 mg four times a day when you feel like you’re getting sick. I was still tired at 11am, after being up and even eating breakfast a few hours before. Then Jenny from work called to see if I was still interested in seeing Twilight again today. That woke me up! I brought mom with me, cause she kind of wanted to see it, and I thought it’d be something nice for her to do on her day off. She enjoyed it very much, even more than she thought she would. Maybe I can get her to read the books with me. Oh, and she was out shopping today at Marshalls, and I had her pick me up the second book, New Moon. I’m probably about half way through Twilight. Jenny said something to me during the movie, and I said “What does that mean?” And she stopped herself, and said “Oh. You’ll find that out in the second book. Wow, I almost ruined something for you. Sorry!!!” Hahahaha. Luckily, she didn’t, but I have some theories of my own.
I just need to say that watching the relationship between Bella and Edward (the two main characters) makes my heart hurt. It seems as if they are soul mates, and are not only completely attracted to each other, but they spend every moment together smiling, and enjoying each other’s company. He opens doors for her, gives her his jacket, and yearns to protect her. I really sometimes wish that I could morph myself into these movies, and spend my life there. I want to be in a relationship like that. The reason it makes my heart hurt, I think, is because I don’t feel like that exists in real life. Or, more so, I don’t think I will ever find that in my life. I think that’s why I like reading these books so much, because I can pretend, for just a moment, that I am in their world. How depressing.
Now it’s 4 o’clock, and I have class in an hour. I am completed exhausted. I feel like I could put my head down on the edge of the couch and fall fast asleep. Since I went to the movie, I didn’t go to the gym this afternoon. Class gets out at 8, so I’m planning on going then, but maybe I should take the day off since I’m so tired. I’ll see how I feel at 8. As long as I can get 20 minutes on the elipitical, I’m happy. I should be able to do that. Then, I’ll come right home, have a warm shower, and crawl into bed with Twilight. I don’t have to wake up early for anything tomorrow, so I’ll let myself sleep as long as I can. I really don’t want to get sick. *Sneezes* Of course. I should wear a hat, scarf, and mittens to class tonight.
