I've caught a cold TT_TT It began last week when my throat started hurting so I went to the drug store by my dormitory (pictured) I bought some pills that said "throat" on the box in Japanese in hopes that it would help. The next day I took a trip to Tokyo which I will post about next. Anyways, the medicine did dry up the drainage in my throat but also made my throat extremely dry and scratchy and now I sound like a frog :P This week however I have also started getting a runny nose as well and feel congested.

Tomorrow I will go back to the drug store to see if i can find another type of cold medication. Another problem I have been having is I am shedding hair extremely bad. I think it may be because last month I got a Japanese straight perm done which made my hair straight and silky but maybe now I am having a bad reaction to it. I hope it's not permanent damage T_T. I bought some Iron supplements because I read that one reason your hair will fall out is because you are not getting enough iron. I hope I get better soon! Only 3 weeks left before I return to America!
