A Boring Update

The chicken pox are gone and the next virus has moved in. I'm currently getting over a respiratory virus. No medicine - doc says I just need to get rest and drink plenty of fluids. It could be worse. Hopefully next week won't be =)

I'm in my third week of school and it's actually going better than I expected (event though I don't know any of the other students). I did eat lunch by myself on the first day - but now i go home for lunch =)

So that's all the exciting news for now.

Happy and Healthy 2008

So I started my re-immunizations. I got 5 shots the first time. I could barely move my arms!! That was fun. and for Christmas - Santa gave me chicken pox! Yes, I had them as a child but my immune system hasn't had them yet! Luckily they were juvenile chicken pox and not the adult version (shingles). I hear those are pretty painful. They kept me in the hospital for a few days because children's chicken pox can do some damage to an adult body (I think something in the brain and may make you sterile! like that would be a problem...). I also learned that chicken pox is one of the 8 types of Herpes viruses that affect humans. On the bright, non-itchy side, I should have lifelong protective immunity from further episodes of chickenpox.

What a way to start the new year! I hope yours started better!
