After being up for 33 hours straight followed by only 6 hours of sleep and another 15 hours of either volunteering at the local hospital or partying, I am finally sick!!!!
And why was I up for 33 hours?? Well because I wanted to show my supervisors at work that I am a workaholic so that they give me a good evaluation. Well, this was part of the reason. I worked from 11 pm to 7 am. I then attended my classes and worked on my research the entire day. I was supposed to work again 3pm to 7 pm only. I knew I can do it. All I had to do was get home asap after work and sleep. BUT the next dispatcher was late. And not like 5 or 10 minutes late, completely two and a half hours late.
REASON?? Well, she usually comes in at 2300 hours but that day we were both covering someone else's shift. I was covering the first fours hours and she was supposed to cover the remaining four. But she forgot and was sleeping . It happens. It could have happened with me too. But I WAS UP FOR 24HOURS NOW and I HAD TO SLEEP.
Anyway finally the next dispatcher came, after having called him tons of times and leaving innumerable voicemails, and I was off duty.
So, I went home and slept, right??
WRONG!
I went to my friend's place to catch up on her love interest and to tell her stories about my Mr. Incompatible. And once we started talking...
And we talked and talked and talked...
...until 5 am when we both slept.
Woke up 6 hours later, went to the hospital where I volunteer at the emergency center, saw a mother crying over her dead baby, went to school to do research, went home, dressed up and went to the biggest dance event on campus (which was like my friend said, "Just a publicity stunt"), took a long walk before returning home and chatted for another 3 hours with my friend before finally going to bed.
Slept for 11 hours and that should have made me better but I guess that was just the starting of me falling sick :(
I feel like blaming God but I know I am at fault!!!!
