Sinister: the cube we had for fresh air...

[LunaLilly at xxx.com]

Yes, hello. 

  How might you all be? I think some of you might say very well and some 
might just look at me and not say anything at all and which in this case I 
would know that meant awful. So I had a weekend from dream world. What do I 
mean? Oh well this is what happened....I am going on a trip to Europe and I 
have no money since my business decided it didn't want to work for about 2 
months and silly me I kept spending like it worked better than ever. So I was 
hearing these things about these medical studies that take place the town 
over. I like the town over. It's pleasant. My friend's parents live there 
too...so we frequent it. OK back to the subject.....I decided to do one of 
these studies. It was to pay $830.00 and a friend loaned me a nice chunk too. 
Well, I go there on Thursday night....managed to find some nice boys to chat 
with about books and so on.....we all went to sleep knowing we were to be 
woken at 6 am to have tubes (IV's) into our arms. Ok so I wake up and manage 
to walk into the ward....there were 12 of us on this particular study....and 
after going through the hell of having tubes stuck into my veins.....the 
started to take my blood...out of one of the tubes mind you.....Ok to make 
this long boring story short...I got so so so sick from the med. they gave 
me. It was so awful.....I got to go outside like 2 times and it was this 
courtyard and all you could see when you looked up was this tiny patch of 
sky. Just awful. And everyone in there was smoking (there were 5 other 
studies taking place)....I found another nice boy....sort of a hippie...not 
my fav.....but he was so sweet. Then the throwing up started. I threw up so 
much and so violently.....my abs hurt very badly the next day. Not that you 
wanted to hear this. So I have to go back next week and do the same thing 
over. What have I become? It's quite sad to know you are subjecting yourself 
to torture for money. My veins are so bruised too....like a junkie. Then my 
batteries went out in my walkman and I couldn't listen to Belle and Sebastian 
or anything else for that matter. Oh well. I think it will be ok next week. I 
managed to paint my friends parents house yesterday and I also managed to 
walk about that town covered in my paint clothes and but some nice music. So 
what am I complaining about? Ok I am sorry to subject you to this awful 
email......maybe you won't have even read this far. But thanks if you 
did....Olivia
