Should've kept my mouth shut

Well, apparently, my motion sickness has gone crazy. Yesterday was my second day off the plane, yet, when I was standing around reading a magazine, it felt like I was on a listing boat. That feeling perpetuated throughout the day until I finally asked my professor if I could see a doctor. I was scared it might be an ear infection. I forgot you need health insurance in this country; it’s not like that back in Thailand. Anyhow, it turned into a big fuss and I wished I hadn’t said anything. Finally, I just took my professor’s advice to lay down and slept from six last evening to six this morning. Truth be told, it’s still not that great, but I’m not gonna tell anyone anything. You’d think my appendix ruptured or something, the way they’ve been going on and I feel so bad to take them away from their other duties, especially the professor who’s here at the university taking care of us. God, I wish I’d kept my mouth shut. Anyhow, I’m just gonna shut up today and take care of myself. I only have one session in the morning and after that, I’m gonna go off on my own and try to block out all their stupid voices.

Final thought: When in doubt, shut your mouth.
