bronchitis and other stuff

So it started out as a dry sarcastic sounding cough about a week or so ago and people teased me for sounding shady every time I coughed. I assumed it was from allergies since the radiator in my room works so well that I have to open the windows every night in fear that I'll end up baking overnight. Anyways, I took Allegra assuming it was a dust allergy but then the cough just started getting juicier and I sounded more and more like death. Ya..I have bronchitis. I always got it when I was a kid, so often to where bronchitis might as well have been a part of my identity. I haven't had it in a while so I guess my old friend decided to pay me another visit. How kind:) This Saturday I'm singing at a church coffeehouse event and if I don't sound any better by then, I have no idea what I'm going to do. Maybe I'll just shut my mouth and focus on playing cajon, but I also don't know if I can deal with coughing up my lungs for another day. 
Today I went to volunteer at O'Bryant and there was a senior class reading their final poems that they had written. They were called "boasts" because the poem was supposed to be written like an ancient Greek piece to brag about their accomplishments and how great of a person they were. The kids were referring to themselves as "___ the Great" and it was definitely a unique assignment I have never heard of before. A lot of the poems were actually surprisingly good and at one point I felt like I was at a poetry slam. It was definitely one of the more enjoyable times I've had at O'Bryant, to be honest maybe the only one, but cool to see some works being read out loud.
Oh, also I'm 99.9% sure I failed my chemistry test yesterday and I really couldn't afford to do that so I guess I can cry about it when my grade comes back. I did fine last semester in chemistry but I don't know if it's because the material is a lot harder this semester or if I have a new teacher now and I just can't learn from him but I am high-key struggling. Hopefully I didn't do as bad as I feel like I did but also I'm not ready for the cumulative chemistry exam coming up later this month. It's so crazy how my first year of college is almost over, I feel like I just found out I was even coming to Northeastern a few days ago. Yikes let me just ride out this wave of existential crisis real quick.

Bye:)
