My roommate Amanda is really sick tonight. She has severe stomach pains that started out as heart burn. Apparently stuff like this have been going on since the beginning of her freshman year in high school, but tonight it is especially awful. It is stressed induced, so that would make sense with the night before finals. I feel terrible for her and don't wish I could do something to help out. Our friend Kelsey went to get her medicine and I am staying with her in case she needs anything. I wish I could do more, but there's nothing much to do.
I feel terrible that she has a final tomorrow and is this sick. It makes me feel incredibly lucky that I am not ill from stress the night before all the craziness starts. It's given me some perspective on my situation. I have been complaining about my finals and my juries and all my stress for weeks now, especially these past two. However, I have it a lot better than Amanda does, since I can still function and am not in severe pain. It reminds me that there are a lot of people out there who have bigger complications than a theory final tomorrow and other busyness the rest of the week. Just something I was thinking about.
