Never Will I Ever meme: Name three fics you think I will never, ever, ever write. In return, I will attempt to write a snippet of one of them.
I think I can handle writing snippets. xD I think.
So today was our first Botany lab going out to collect plant specimens. I lasted, oh, about an hour, and then I suddenly got struck with the worst kind of head rush-- tunnel vision, ringing ears, nausea, all that jazz-- completely out of the blue. I felt fine, and then I didn't. I crouched to try and catch my balance/get a grip on reality, and Dr. Aikman asked if I was okay, and one of the girls was like "you don't look okay, your lips are blue and you're really pale."
Three weeks into class and I end up in the nurse's office. It's like high school except I could decide to leave, and when half an hour of laying down didn't really ease the headrush-y feeling, I did just that. So. I should be in class in 20 minutes; instead I'm home, hoping I'll feel okay by 4 because I absolutely can't miss Forensics lab, and it should be quick anyhow.
What surprised me is that Dr. Aikman called my house to make sure I was okay after the nature walk was done. That was totally sweet, I don't think I've ever had a college professor that concerned, and he told me he'd have a copy of the notes for me and to make sure I felt better before I came in and it would be okay if I missed Wednesday. Which I don't plan to do, but still, that's so NICE of him.
I'm going to have to go back out on the nature trail myself at some point this week and get specimens of the plants I was around to learn. We have 40 must-know species, and I think I was around for about 15 of them... that's a lot of catching up to do. :/
The nurse was super nice, too, which hasn't always been the case as far as school health personnel I've known. The faculty at CCCC are some of the sweetest people I've met in a college setting. ♥
