Dear god in heaven I hate writing 'I'm not coming into class today' emails! Next to writing to R. it's gotta be the hardest thing. I'm writing to Professor Levene to say I'm not coming (for my fortnightly humiliation). I felt really ill yesterday, but I am fibbing a bit today. However, the whole point of going to see him today was to show him an essay draft that I was going to write yesterday but couldn't. I just think it's better to have something to show him on Monday than nothing at all to show him today. Like I said yesterday - my body just has the worst timing. I have an undiagnosed pain in my lower stomach which I've never had before - so quite interesting!

Now this month I really do have to go to the doctor's and see about getting put on the pill. That's probably what they'll offer to make my period pain better - that's what they offered last time. I suppose I'd have to go on it anyway eventually so best to get it over with. So that's my fun job for the week after next. Next week I have to write my essay. I have to write my other essay for the following four weeks, but I also don't have to go to Leeds. Yay!

I think that the only thing that can make me ill is me. I think that stress made me ill last time - I've never had flu before or even anything remotely like it. The only thing that ever kept me off school was my period pain, which has always been nasty. It's not just some random aching, we're talking can't walk, can't think, can't move. Need hot water (bath, hot water bottle) and breathing exercises or singing to make it bearable. It really knocks me out for the whole day. It's been kinda better recently, but I think it lessens or worsens depending on how I feel myself - right now I'm very stressed and that can't possibly help with muscle cramp based pain!

Anyway. Off to the doctors soon, and not going to Leeds today, which alone is a huge relief. Every other Friday I get that dread feeling you get before exams - for about six hours. Not fun.

INFJ - "Author". Strong drive and enjoyment to help others. Complex personality. 1.5% of total population.
Take Free Myers-Briggs Personality Test

ISFJ - "Conservator". Desires to be of service and to minister to individual needs - very loyal. 13.8% of total population.
Take Free Myers-Briggs Personality Test

Now, I guess these could both be me. I tied (put the middle answer) on a fair amount of questions and the site says that if you did that it probably just splits the tie randomly. But of the two, I think I prefer the first - big shock there!

Just took the Enneagram/Myers Briggs test and got another result!:
INTP - "Architect". Greatest precision in thought and language. Can readily discern contradictions and inconsistencies. The world exists primarily to be understood. 3.3% of total population.
Take Free Myers-Briggs Personality Test

And yet again, I feel that my enneagram test result is wrong, even though it's the one I keep on getting. Oh well, they're just random tests I guess. I don't think they'd do very well quantifying my personality.

Just got an email back from Prof. Levene - and he's a sweetheart! Just says not to worry and come and see him Tuesday or Wednesday next week. Bless! I'm always so glad when people turn out nicer than you expect.
