ReplyDeleteyeah you DEF get the shakes, but you get the kind of shakes where you can't evne get up out of bed. I get the shakes where I get up way too soon/fast and then like if anyone looks at me I feel like theyre being mean to me. One time, mom called me at school and I had the shakes and it was during finals and she was like " yeaaah...you should probably go to bed and i'll check ya later" so that was funny... rully?

ReplyDeleteMy roommates were supposed to go on a train to some other city in Austria a couple weeks ago: meeting point Train Station 9am. So at 9:15 some girls from their group called them.
ReplyDelete"Hello??" Groggy voice
"Umm, Jenny, why aren't you here?!"
"What?"
"Jenny, we're leaving in 10 minutes!"
"HOW DID THIS HAPPEN!?"
I think the how did this happen question is legit, and maybe even an example of the shakes.
