Had a bad cold + End of the Term

(Police officer on the Horse, near Liverpool Street Station)

• On 5th December, I caught a bad cold. I felt very tired in the previous night, and I found that I had a fever in the morning, though I didn't know how high my body heat was because I didn't have a medical thermometer. All I can say is I had been feeling chilly all through the day. So I couldn't do almost anything but sleeping in the bed that day. I just sent an email to report that I was not going to attend the class in the following morning. Actually, that was the last class of the course. I really regret I couldn't participate in it because I can enjoy the language class very much every time. Although I was shuddering with cold, I ventured to the nearest pharmacy called Boots to buy some medicines. I couldn't sleep well the night before, so I wanted to get a cold medicine with drowsy effects. But I couldn't find anything like that. Therefore, I had to spend another terrible night. By watching Japanese comedy shows on YouTube, I was trying to keep my mind distracted from the loneliness and sufferings. Thanks to them, I slept well in the morning on Saturday. I knew that just the effects of the medicine helped cooling down the fever, I really wanted to have some Japanese foods like noodles and steamed rice, I went to Japan Centre in Picadilly Circus in the afternoon on that day. I took a bus at first, but it terminated at Marble Arch. Then I was waiting for another bus toward Picadilly Circus, but most of the buses don't go over the station. So I changed my route and took a tube to the same destination. Buying some Japanese foods, I left the store immediately, and went home. After having an early dinner in my room, I spent the rest of the day on lying down on my bed. It was on Monday I felt better, though I was still sleeping a lot on that day. Now, I'm worried about my papers. I have to submit two essays for 5000 words on January 5th. I don't think I can enjoy my Christmas vacation.
