I came down with something a few weeks back, and man, was it persistent! I don’t know what it was, even my parents and the doctors didn’t know! All I know are the symptoms:

Dizziness
Lightheaded
Temporary bouts of nausea
Aching back
Fluctuating temperature (in between 98° to 102°, back and forth)
Headaches (despite that I get those almost every day)

If anyone has any idea what this illness was, please let me know, because even now I’m still in the dark about it.

I just received VHS copies of films from my math teacher Miss Harumi - three are from her native Japan.

MEN DON'T LEAVE, which I've never even heard of before. Apparently, the back cover of it tells me that it'll keep me roaring. It's a Warner Home Video release from 1990; it's one of the last tapes from Warner to have an end label.

Acquired 9 VHS tapes including my first four Japanese cassettes. Also got me a few magazines. This was done after I acquired 3 tapes and those magazines at Bookman's.

最初の4つの日本のカセットを含む9枚のVHSテープを購入しました。 また私にはいくつかの雑誌があります。 これは、私が3本のテープとその雑誌をBookman's（スピードウェイ）で購入した後に行われました。

(Had to use Japanese writing because of the Japanese tapes I have gained)

EDIT: OK, I'd like to know who had the gall to put a dislike there.
