I managed to make my way to the School computer, good deal. Now I got ot input all of the themes into anki. I am almost finished with my sandwich and i am not trying to rush that.

I am almost not itchy. I am trying to let the medication work its magic. I didn't even have time to eat a gummy. I am just trying to relax until that medication works and the little itching and nerve endings buzzing stops.

Wow he only spent 8 dollars on 2 boxes of cookies, so nice. I feel alone, I want a man or person to talk to. I need to talk to someone but tomorrow Keely comes, I think I can wait until then.

I feel a little dizzy so I should stay sitting for now. I am getting mayonaise on my dress and tuna on the floor, I am a mess. I probably should just lay down but I feel like I need to be productive. If I am feeling dizzy though, I need to just rest. I have been doing nothing but resting as of late.

I feel I am going crazy. My mental health is bothered by the itching though, I am pretty sure. I don't know why that started up all of a sudden but it won't last forever.

And it didn't I am all good today, eating a pajeon sort of burnt. Drinking lemonade, enjoying myself again. This is the School Computer though so I don't know how long I am going to be able to speak on this one.

Before doing my Powerpoint, I wanted to complete my list for anki. I am about half way through it so I think it will be good.

The tea is really relaxing. I bought a bunch of Oi ocha tea packets.

I am still itchy, not a lot but just a little bit which is kind of annoying. Is it the gummies making me itchy? It could be, who knows. But Keely annoyed me just sitting there. I think I handled it fine since I sort of just ignored her. I mean I am busy, I am not going to have time to talk to people or participate int he ACT team really.

I am wondering if I am being sort of... not rude but, ungracious? I don't know. I could continue to utilize them for something, perhaps they could take me to school sometimes.

I just know her visit didn't really help at all, but I didn't let it hold me back so I guess it sort of doesn't matter at that point.

Maybe I will make eggs. I dunno, I guess I feel like I should eat something or maybe it is just me being annoyed about being itchy.

I only got to enjoy 1 orange out of the whole bag I bought, the rest were rotten. I feel like I should go back and complain but I don't have time for that. I have plenty of food other than that too. Perhaps I will order some food today. Ah, I guess my mom is going to dye my hair today.

We are also going to be doing laundry so, it will be a day for sure. I don't know why but I want to go back and lay down. I don't feel it in my body so I am not going to do it but I feel like the itchiness makes me want to seek coziness.

I did tell Keely a little about Bobby. It brought up an interesting conversation about language and pride I guess.
