Diarrhea, Or Something Like It.

I don't know if there's something going seriously wrong with my digestive system, but I think I'm cool with it. As in, as long as it stands with the new argument I've formulated for myself in order to avoid risking going to the doctors here (an experience in itself I wish to never have). Here's my theory on why I've been needing to go to the loo at least once a day for the past week or so:

1. My body is not used to a vegetarian diet, and all this fibre going into me now is rushing to get out cause the system doesn't recognise it, or recognises it all too well as vegetables.

2. 21 years of eating meat for every meal and avoiding vegetables is finally taking its toll, and the body is taking the opportunity to PURGE.

3. The body got used to the veg diet when I first arrived, with the mind overworking to keep the body adaptable to the prospect of a daily-veg-diet, but I went to Delhi, had beef in every meal, enjoyed too much good food there and now it's revolting against the sight of MICA Mess Food.

4. The Beef I consumed is sacred in this country and anyone who eats it is cursed to spend a part of each day in the toilet enduring the fumes of bodily gases and melted "playdough" shit.

5. The Chocolate Cake of Upper Crust is just nonsense compared to the desserts had in Delhi, and so the body is revolting, or a combination of this and the good food in Delhi argument.

6. I ate something wrong that had worm eggs in it and now there's a worm residing in me which would explain my insatiable hunger and stomach aches. This seems rather plausible, but I've been observing my stools (which is what everyone does in the toilet but will never admit) and it doesn't seem to show any signs of dead worms.

I shall go to the doctors in about 5 more days if it doesn't clear up, or if the situation gets worse. Do not worry, I am well-aware of the state of affairs in my anal tract, and will take the necessary steps to safeguard my health. If anything else develops, I'll be sure to take a photo and describe in (all-too-graphic) detail what came about. Cool?

Now back to South Park and wondering about the Body and Technology and Cyberspace (learnt in Metaphors and Narratives class today).

Tomorrow there's the Alumni Meet which is when all the old students are invited back to MICA for 2 days, and alcohol will be available, a dance floor with a professional DJ will be constructed, and drunken debauchery will reigh supreme before our very eyes. Yes, we will be there, we will be watching everything and laughing our heads off - we've all heard stories of people sleeping with one another during this 2-day event. Woohoo. Wait in eager anticipation dear reader, and for the parents who actually read this blog, don't worry, your daughters are in safe hands.

Not mine of course, I'll send you pictures of whose. That's if I'm not preoccupied with the entertainment parading before me of course (but seriously, I'll watch out for them).

"Don't worry" has got to be the worst line in the history of Man.
