Sick in Paris

Let me start off with Valentine's Day...it was good. At first I didn't know what I was going to do until Uko called me and we went out to just walk around and see some more sites of Paris. It was an absolute beautiful day, but it was cold. Clear skies with the sun, but cold. We walked around a park that was on top of multiple buildings and then we walked around the Bastille and saw that there was a small carnival going on...nothing close to the Texas state fair. We got some crepes...mine just Nutella, and he also got bananas in his for his "potassium for the day." lol! I think next time I will get bananas in mine because it looked DELICIOUS! The Nutella crepe was absolute heaven in my mouth and for some reason I had never felt so satisfied in my life after eating it. I didn't even want another one...I just wanted to sit there on that park bench and smile.

Anyways the day after V-day.....

Me = one word.....SICK. I had never felt so gross since I had mono. I didn't even feel like getting out of bed. All I wanted was my mom and a freaking walmart full of drugs right next door. Preferably Nyquil....which Paris does not have. I should have brought medicine with me, but I did not even think of how sick I would get. I literally laid in bed all day and barely drank or ate anything. When my host mom got home I told her I was sick and after dinner she game be an ibprofen and some mint tea. It helped A LOT. But I still wanted medicine for my nose.

Today I woke up feeling MUCH better and I got dressed and ventured off to find a pharmacy. I walked too far, but I eventually found one and on my way home I passed one that was closer to my apartment...o well. I then felt like I needed some sprite or 7up because that's what my mom always gave me when I had a cold. Plus it made me burp :) But I didn't see any in the Pastry shop so I just went with the good ol Minute Maid orange juice! I also got a baguette to eat with my jam I got for lunch and maybe a small snack later on in the afternoon and with my medicine. I took another ibprofen and used my nose spray, but the bottle does not say how many squirts to do. So that was my Valentine's day and the day after. I have put off lots of my homework because of how ill I was and now because I'm somewhat healthier I think I have to get some work done.
