i am forgoing a night on the town in favour of sleep.

so the opera is amazing. i mean. fantastically amazing. our voice majors are pretty incredible. and scott. whoa scott.

today we swam and it was good. i am feeling muscles that i wasn't even aware i had: triceps, pectorals. but my eyes were so bloodshot they looked like blood vessels had burst in my sclera. eyedrops cleared them up pretty quickly, but they still stung, and i just looked in the mirror and they're red again, though not as bad.

in addition to that, my throat is sore (that only happened after swimming, but yesterday my voice was stuffy) and my nose is sniffly and sneezy, so either i have allergies like nobody's business, or i have taken ill.

crap.
