My Farewell to Tumblr
latikaaaa:

I just got home and I feel like crap.
I have the crud in my throat and chest. I’ve had a headache all day. I feel nauseous. I’m thirsty, and I’m really craving a slush, which I can’t get at 1am. and I have to work tomorrow, feeling like this, or probably worse. not sure why I even got on here tonight because I’m about to pass out. I guess just to share that, haha.
