So that thing i said about feeling a little sick. Turns out I was really sick. Sicker than anything I can ever remember. I woke up later that morning and was up tossing my cookies for about 6 or 7 hours. It was so bad I had to go to the hospital and get an IV for dehydration because i couldn't keep anything down. Just looking at water made me lose it and i couldn't even think of trying anything solid. It was pretty dramatic.
After about 30 hours of feeling like i was being dragged through hell, heaven was waking up in the morning and being able to drink a glass of water and keep down a bowl of rice crispies. It's been about 3 days now and i still dont have my appetite back, and i still dont know what caused my sickness. All the food I had that evening was shared with other people and nobody else was sick, so...i dunno. I do know that it will be awhile until I eat green olives again. Those things are disgusting coming back up.
Also in the realm of bad news: the CELTA program I was planing on taking here at AUK has flaked out on me. I responded to an e-mail i got from an admissions person awhile back with my current phone number and was "kindly informed" that the program has been delayed until June. so..that sucks. I am really disappointed. I was looking forward to getting that certification. I think the course would have helped for me to do some international exploration, traveling around and teaching English possibly help me pick up a language or two. I guess i need to find some other way to do it. I need to find something else to do while Im here too. That was supposed to be about a months worth of my stay here... fuckin a! stupid school.
since i have been pretty sick i have been taking it easy, not up to too much so not too much to share. I did learn something new today, pretty interesting. Kuwait University and all the public schools in kuwait are segregated by sex! how ridiculous. The private universities here are integrated but there is a push from the more conservative parts of society to make the private universities segregated as well. pretty lame. Insecure politicians with their stuffy dist'ahas.

Yo...no CELTA program? What the ass! I had a feeling they were gonna do that again when you were telling me about the initial delay. Twats. Sorry to hear that happened. You gonna end up staying even longer or are you just gonna ignore it and make a triumphant return eventually? We all miss you here...come back tomorrow. Oh and check your e-mail.
oh and that the shits that you got that sick. I was worried as hell and all paranoid about a specific situation when I was reading that...and then I saw you wrote everyone else had the same thing to eat. Dunno man, be careful...
Glad your feeling better bro.
