Life with COVID

You’d think me being home and bedridden now means that I’d have more time to write but NOPE! The first two days were somewhat okay and I was busy emailing teachers of my absence. It sucks because I was supposed to have an exam for one of my classes this week. The teacher said I could reschedule it or just take an average of my test scores later to make up for this one. I chose the latter. The test is easy, but there’s $6 rescheduling fee and an $8 parking fee at the testing center so I’d rather forgo it.

The etiquette lunch went by a few days ago. Even though 20 people signed up and were instructed to notify an officer ASAP if they changed their minds, those entitled bitches just did what they wanted and only 13-14 people showed up (with maybe 5 of those being company professionals). Sucks because the restaurant had to set up so many extra tables for no reason. Even though I was sick with COVID, I was still on standby at home all for the duration of the lunch. It was still my event and I’m still in charge of it. Because other lunches like this in the other semester always had a high turnout rate with around 40 people, I booked the event room accordingly. But, because of how little people showed up, we ended up going under the $1000 food minimum. To make up for this, the restaurant had everyone there order an extra meal to-go. Those lucky bitches. I can’t believe I missed out on all that. The presentation also went smoothly from what I heard, but I imagine it was a little awkward. Club President ended up taking my spot of the presentation and really helped me pick up my shit even though she didn’t have to.

That night on the second day, I was in my room cleaning until my cousin (that’s staying in the guest bedroom next to mine and quarantining from her dad) comes into my house crying really badly. Apparently she had a high fever as a symptom of COVID and had a crazy fever dreams. She’s super scared of the dark and ghosts, and her fever dream was just full of it. Ghosts were chasing her, they were killing the family one by one in front of her, her friends turned into demons and turned against her, and it was all bloody and gory. She comes in sobbing in her pjs with her stuffed animal in her arms, looking so sad and innocent. Her body was scorching hot so I gave her a cooling gel pack for her forehead, fed her some medicine, and let her sleep in my bed. I turned on a purple lit nightlight and stayed with her in bed until she started snoring. On the surface it seems sweet, but the whole time I was thinking, “Hurry up and go to sleep so I can finish cleaning my room you little brat.”

When I finished cleaning, I looked at my bed and saw that she took up the whole mattress. I got a queen size fucking bed and the 4’10, 60 pound punk took it up all by herself. Fucking figures. I bring my phone with me and sleep in the guest bedroom for the night. I get awoken by her at 7 in the morning and we switch rooms.

As the day goes, we find out another family member’s, my aunt, got COVID. Before it was me, my parents, and my cousin. Till now, my uncle is still the only one that’s COVID-free. Each new morning was just filled with sore throats and phlegmy coughs. And oh my fucking god, there is so much snot. I’ve went through so many tissues. At one point, I wanted my body to be dehydrated already so I can stop needing to blow my nose. Night of day 3 was when COVID hit me the hardest. I kept turning and twisting in bed but I couldn’t fall asleep and my core temperature kept rising. Having a stuffy nose always makes it hard to sleep. It’s so annoying.

Being at home is nice, but I’m utilizing most of that time to deep clean my room and restroom. I’m never gonna have another opportunity like right now and really no excuse to not do it.

Hope everyone’s been having a better week than me though!!

Oh! And apparently the dnmx email was raided. I didn’t write down anyone’s email and it doesn’t seem like that websites ever coming back so…sorry… Lost contacts are always a sad story, but I don’t think I’ll make another email. Last time I gave it out, I kept getting emails for CP. There were only a few that actually wanted to talk but oh well. :/

TLDR: The dizziness went away so COVID sucks now.
