14. Laryngitis

So....Laryngitis..... ewww right? Yeah I for sure had that this week! At first I thought it was just a cold. But then I started losing my voice. Now, I usually don't lose my voice when I am sick, it has only happened to me one other time and that is when I had strep throat. So of course I went to the doctor, it wasn't strep but it was Laryngitis. So I was fine with that, it's just a cold in your throat. But I realized something.... I HATE NOT TALKING. It sucks! I was completely mute for two days, and the other two days I sounded like a guy going through puberty. I knew that I loved to talk, but I didn't realize how much I talked. It was seriously so hard for me to not talk. Everyone was so shocked that I couldn't talk. I didn't realize how much I took my voice and talking for granted, I know that sounds kind of weird, but it is seriously so hard to not talk to people. Talking to people is such a big part of.....well.... your life. It was seriously so hard to have people not understand you and in order for them to hear you, they have to be like an inch away from your face. It stinks. It didn't help that I had three Reviews to go to and I had plenty of questions for all of them. I had to write all the questions and have the TA read them and then answer my questions after the class how sad is that? But I just thought it was crazy how much I use my voice everyday. Crazy what you take for granted.
