That pukey kinda feeling...

There's a heatwave going through Europe at the moment and Italy isn't even among one of the countries that has been hit. Yes, 100°F daily is normal. Meanwhile, people are dropping like flies over France and Germany because of the same temperature.

Yesterday, I couldn't even make it to class when a bout of sudden dizziness and nausea combined with the feeling of being cooked from the inside out took over me as I waited patiently at the bus stop, behind the pole that displayed the bus routes, for the teeniest sliver of shade. (My poor feet couldn't fit into the shady area and got scorched.) I suddenly realized that I couldn't sweat, my head began to pound and I felt like I was about to internally combust so I walked back to my apartment to lie down asap. Perhaps a bit of heat stroke. And by the way, all this happened at 5pm.

Later on I had dinner with a bunch of girl friends at their apartment (I made pasta with garlic and oil, my mom would be so proud) and then returned back to my place, where Fran greeted me at the door. Strangely enough, the same dizzy-nauseating feeling washed over me after he invited me to see a movie with him. Of course, I immediately but politely declined (this is the 3rd or 4th time he has invited me out with him) and then, just to be a bit social and remain on his good side, I asked him what it was about. He tells me it's an erotic film. O_o Oh, okay, well good thing I'm not going then, I say. He replies: 'What, you don't like erotic films?'

Just another 'wtf' moment in my Perugian life.
