On the 6th day of sore throat, my mother said to me...

"Go see the doctor"

Finally... I'm coming to school for UT first and leaving straight after that.

Today, my throat took an even bigger turn for the worse (ive been coughing, bleeding, losing my voice thus far), today, my throat is swollen. till the point where when i drink a mouthful of water, i have to divide it into two... kinda scary... suddenly, the joke about throat cancer doesnt seem so funny anymore...
