Jason's Daily Notes

Be careful what you wish for: A few days ago I just wanted to get better from my flu. And I really just wanted to be able to sleep a lot, like 14 hours, to get fully better.
Well, last night, I came to the apartment after work, lay down on the futon, and fell asleep as Louise browsed on the laptop. Before I knew it, almost 3 hours had gone by. I groggily watched some American Idol and then went to IHOP with Ruchi for free pancakes. Ihop tried to close us out but it was still 9:30. Ate, dropped off Ruchi and returned to the apartment. I slept 9 hours more. It felt great.

Now at work. I'm still sleepy.
News: Charlie Sheen is "bi-winning"
I'm happy. I love this time of year. Longer days, better weather.
Lunch: Trader Joe's Indian fare and bread with mayo. Yum (?)
I'm SO SLEEPY today. Just wanna doze off...
Music: Ke$ha (I know...); Radiohead

Yeah... I'm totally napping at work. Yawn.

Stayed at the apt last night. Watched HIMYM, Anthony Bourdain and slept. I needed the rest. My body is still healing.

Happy new month!
I'm still kinda sick. Randomly very tired. A bit of a cough hanging around.
Lunch: Chipotle run (w/ coupon) with Andy, Ryan, and Harry.

Sandra's back in Germany now.
The weather is nice. Not as chilly.
... I can notice the sun higher in the sky. And the longer days. Yay.
I can't stop smiling, thinking about my life and what's gonna happen the rest of this year.

Oscars last night. Brian came over. We trove to Hollywood. Went to Canter's. And Sheddy's. It was cold. Lisa arrived at the apartment, Felix's friend from Germany. Said bye to Sandra.

I feel weird. Surreal. Fidgety. Unable to focus. Energized but also sleepy.
I'm just so drugged-up. Stupid flu.
I feel like a 10-year-old. My brain is racing but I can't focus on one thing.
12:30pm and I feel inexplicably euphoric. Thinking about Europe this summer.
Music: Linkin Park - Waiting for the End
Lunch: Canned chicken soup.
I'm still drugged and feel out-of-body.
Let me try to concentrate on work...

Sick. Stayed in. Watched TV, rested. Had soup.

Groan


Sunday: Still sick but not as bad.

Oscars.
Brian came over. Met up with Patricia, Sandra, and Matthias. They were in the crowd in Hollywood Blvd. We went to Canter's. Then to Sheddy's. Dan was there. I just had soup and hot water. Then back to West LA. Hung out for a little bit. Then that was it.

Went to Leaf Organics last night with Laura and Sandra (whom we picked up). Then to the Fox Hills Mall. No soy milkshakes at Millions of Milkshakes, so we got Hawaiian coffee and cocoa instead. Watched Forgetting Sarah Marshall. I rested through much of the movie and Laura chatted on the phone with her friend Justin in Portland (while Sandra watched with Matthias).

I'm sick. Really. Coughing. Taking lots of Vitamin C.

Left work early: 12:30. I am really in no condition to be at work today. Drove home, slowly (my mind was not moving fast at all). It took 1 hour, even with little traffic. It had begun to sprinkle rain. Stopped by Tommy's to get something warm and greasy in my stomach. I felt very nauseous.
Laid in bed the whole afternoon, groaning in pain, waiting for my mom to arrive from work with medicinal relief.
Music: Sigur Ros; Explosions in the Sky.

I'm getting congrats all around for my acceptance into LSE. People seem much more impressed than I thought they would be.

I'm also feeling sick.
Watched Valentine's Day last night. Went to Cafe 50's with Laura and her CS friend Morgan.
Music: Kelly Clarkson - My Life Would Suck Without You

Night hike to Hollywood sign, after getting vegan food last night. Sandra was feeling ill.

Music: Saves the Day - Anywhere with You; Trey Songz - Bottoms Up

I GOT INTO LSE. NOTHING ELSE MATTERS!

:)

Tired from a very eventful weekend.
News: Libya protests, now they're violent. Devastating earthquake in New Zealand (Christchurch)
Music: Die Ärzte - Wie Es Geht
Lunch: Trimana sushi - spicy tuna
Today I am 8698 days old.
Going hiking to the Hollywood Sign tonight with Laura and Sandra.
