6/10 - Falling.

I'm sitting here in the library once more after a quite extrordinary and terrifying day..

I awoke at the usual 6:50 and got out of bed to be able to check once more I had all my things packed for the day. I had this feeling I had been sleeping extremely heavy since when the alarm went off, it started ringing in the far distance.

I packed my stuff and headed for breakfast. Same "demi-wholegrain"-bread, bowl of tea, glass of orangejuice, yoghurt but today they also served leftover fruits which for me meant a banana!

I got to my historylesson which today was transformed in to the premier geographylesson. I sat there, trying to take notes, trying to think in french but soon realized that I had major difficulties with both my concentration and my understanding. I always find it difficult, but today it was as if the teacher all of a sudden started speaking Greek or latin or some completely different language. First I thought it was only because I was more tired than usual and that it was early in the morning, but when the world around litterarly started turning I started sensing something was wrong.

I endured the first hour, the break, and twenty minutes in on the second half of the lesson when I realized my ship was sinking.

I raised my hand and said I needed to go to the Infermerie (Schoolnursery, skolhälsovârden) to get some help. As I got up I realized I had no balance and my legs were weakening under me so I had to hold on to something. I got out of the classroom and had a sentinemental breakdown because I had no idea what was happening. Marion and Sofiane (guy, not a girl..!) had promised to help me so they more or less dragged the half-sobbing dizzy-near-to-vomiting-frail Swede to the Infermerie. I think I cried almost all the way, or half-cried really. My head kind of felt like an exploaded goat-cadaver on speed.. Not very well that is to say.

I explained what had happened for the school-nurses and they lead me to a room where I could lie down. I lay down and they checked my bloodpressure, asking the ordinary questions "What have you eaten? How have you been sleeping? Do you have any cardial-diseases?". I ended up lying in that bed for almost 2 and a half hour. Half-awake, half-dreaming. I drank a glass of something containing paracetamol and "awoke" at 1200 .

Florence had been notified so she came to see me aswell. I was feeling somewhat better so I convinced them I was strong enough to go on the rest of the day.

I was hungry as wolf so I passed the SELF and went to eat with Delphine, Marion and Sandrie at Quick. 2 LARGE burgers, a large coke and a pack of Fries later we headed for Delphines house, where I slept another 2,5 hours..

Well, after a catastrophical control in Allemand I'm now going to the Internat to rest myself some more.

Bisous!

Loads of love from the library!
