Have I mentioned that I have no immune system? It’s only the second week of class and I’ve caught a nasty virus 
I’ve missed 2 days of summer class, which is equivalent to missing a week in a regular term. My professor said he’d help me catch up, but it’s not the same as attending lecture. Oh well, there’s not much I can do 
On a brighter note, I’ve received more goodies in the mail!
Ashley sent me a package full of wonderful goodies:
When Ashley mentioned the puffy octo stickers in her blog, I secretly coveted them. I was so excited when I saw that she’d sent me some! 
I also received some kawaii Japanese stationery and stickers from Melissa!
I have such wonderful online (and offline) friends

I love the octopus snow globe. It is cute! All I have been getting in the mail is some rather typical ATCs.

I have a long letter for you… but I am in Spain at the moment and it would take twice as long to send it from here. So I will be sending it soon!!

I love the cute stationary! I’ve had a sticker and stationary collection since elementary school and it just keeps growing! Hope you feel better.

I swear I’m going to mail you stuff back one of these days! I know, I’m a terrible correspondent. But I really do love getting things via post and do plan on returning the favor!

I’m still so glad you liked everything.
And sorry to hear you’ve been sick. 
I’m usually pretty sick when school is going on. (Little elementary kids can really spread the sickness around.) I think I’m having a little bit of an allergy issue myself right now (feel kind of icky in the throat.) I hope you’re back to your normal self soon!!

Awwww, the octo-globe is sooooo cute! Those are some awesome friends, indeed.
I hope you’re feeling better, chicky. I hate trying to do class work while under-the-weather. I’m playing catch up with my drawing class as well, so I know what you’re going thru. Enjoy the rest of your weekend and get better!

I absolutely ADORE receiving mail — the excitement of receiving a letter (better yet: a package) is unparalleled!
Sorry to hear your sick. I’m so proud of myself — the month is almost over and I was never absent! However, with the obscene amount of literature assigned for each lecture, that would have been the equivalent of suicide. Good luck on your class!
