Visiting the Land of My Undergrad

So all week I have been counting down to my trip to the great north to visit Marquette. I was going to help my brother move in for his freshman year and to see all of my friends who were in the area. It was all planned, see as many under 21 friends when I got there, see most of my legal friends at the bars that night, and see everyone else the next day. Well lets say this plan worked for only part of it.

My brother and I hit the road at 6am on Thursday. We made it to Marquette by noonish and got him unloaded by 1pm. Well several awesome friends/sisters, A and M, stopped by and I was so excited. Two of my IV friends, M and P, also helped my brother to carry his stuff in so I got to see some unexpected friends. Well my brother sent me away and I went and visited my friend A. After several hours of hanging out and chatting, A, my brother, and I went to Applebees for dinner as I was starving.

After dinner we went to Walmart to do some shopping before A dropped me off at my friend C's (different C than in later posts) house for the evening. Well we both started to feel a little sick after dinner and were thinking it was dinner and maybe was just food poisoning, except for the fact that my brother felt fine. Well I just blew if off and ignored it to the best of my ability, but it kept getting worse.

Well to make the disgusting story short I for some reason went out to the bar with my friends. Felt so nauseous that I even drank some ginger ale, I haven't had pop in months, and that didn't help. Went outside for fresh air, threw up in the ash bucket outside, went in feeling better, went home and was sick all night. Note to the reader: I have not thrown up in over 5 years. It was a miserable night.

The next morning I had my mom pick me up and take me to the hotel where I slept the day away nibbling at a little food and just trying to feel better. I never did feel better until today, Saturday, and that was after hours of sleeping in the car on the way home, drinking lots of water, and eating bits of food along the way.

But I am finally feeling mostly human and counting down until I officially am moved into my place in Portage. Only about 24 hours away until I am officially there.
