Hey, it's kinda hot in here!

Guess what? Today I went colorblind. Well, kind of.

The temperature today was absolutely BURNING, and I, being the stupid little girl that I am, decided to wear a jacket and jeans.

So when the PE coaches decided to take us out to the park...

I started seeing things kinda like this:

There was slight color, like I could almost  tell that the trees were green, but it was more like I sensed it. Then I started feeling nauseous and slightly sick. No need to say that I was majorly freaked out. My friend, her face looked white to me. I could only see that her hair looked grayish brown and black waves where her hair made shadows. The grass, it was white. I could only tell where I was going by the black shadows. I almost tripped on the curb because I couldn't see it. It wasn't like normal blindess where everything is black. I saw white everywhere. The pink flowers looked white. There was barely a bit of yellow where the stamen where. The sun was so bright, I had to squint. I felt like throwing up.

Thankfully, when we finally reached the shade of the tree, I was able to sit down and rest my spinning head. Gradually, color began to reenter my eyesight. I could now see the yellow-green leaves and the blue and red flowers again. The grass was green. I sat there the whole period just keeping my eyes open and hoping not to lose the color again.

However, when we had to walk back, it happened again. This time though, I felt slightly better because I was fairly sure that my eyesight would recover inside. But the park was so far. Rosalind and I were the last to enter the gym. My tongue was dry. My throat felt like a desert. My head was spinning. My stomach clenched with cramps. It hurt.

In 5th period, I was made to go to the nurse. If I haven't told you before, our nurse is rather...incompetent. She checked my temperature and told me I was very dehydrated and probably had a heat stroke. Really now, Sherlock. Then she gave me some saltine crackers, (crackers are her solution to everything. They just throw up? Here, have a cracker. But they were good) and I went to lunch. 

Thankfully, I felt better after 6th period, though I highly doubt it was because of the crackers. I think that it was more likely due to the nap I secretly took while Mrs. Penny was going on about portraits and stuff. I hope we weren't supposed to take notes.  

But anyway...that was a rather interesting experience...that I hope won't happen again. But I can understand colorblind people now.
