I think I finally figured out why every life on the earth has to die while drinking weird-tasting and soap-smelling coffee from a freshly washed cup. The bitterness is still on my tongue. I open the lid and find out there's still a bit of bubbles from the soap on the lid. "Whatevah." I pour the coffee in. "I can wash the lid when I get to my room." And I totally forget what's on that lid by the time I do get to my room. I drink the coffee. "Friggin' hell, what on earth is this?" Oh yes, it's the soap. Stupid me.
This isn't the point. The point is that on the way from the dining hall back to the dorm, I said to my friend, "A couple milliliters of soap can't possibly kill me." (By the way, there're two L's in milliliter. Need to remember that.) Now I'm brilliantly sure that the things that "won't kill you" will eventually deposit to kill you. That's how everyone dies. Yes, I am sure. The candy you picked up from the floor and put in your mouth will kill you. And really, don't pick up a candy from the floor and eat it. That's gross. Candies are sticky.
Oh, my mom and dad just told me once again about how scary swine flu is and to buy masks. I don't dare tell them that I was sick on Saturday.
