April Fools Post

Our Mantoux testing was scheduled for tomorrow. However, I won’t be having mine done. You see, the Mantoux test is contraindicated in anyone who’s had a viral illness within the past four weeks. This past Friday I got a cold so I’m skipping this round of Mantoux tests and I’ll have it done four weeks from now. What a hassle. I’m not completely in the clear for tomorrow though. I need to have blood taken to assess my immunity to some pathogens before getting all those vaccines.

The weather has recently changed it’s much cooler at the moment. Yesterday I woke up to pouring rain which was awesome. Luckily, a few weeks ago Danielle and I each bought an umbrella in preparation for the wet season which pummeled me last year. I think it was 25*C today and the girl sitting in front of me at lecture was wearing a scarf. That’s how cold 25*C feels!

At my 8 AM lecture today Steven tried a week attempt at a practical joke. Something about him getting into a car accident. I totally believed him because he’s been in TWO car accidents in the past 8 months and it was 8 AM. Either way it was a weak attempt.
