The H2O Factor...

So with school starting this week I'm way off in my water and food intake. I'm already bad at drinking enough water but I was doing good for a while there. Now that I'm back at school and water is at a steep $1.35 a bottle...I forget to drink any. Now I feel like I'm paying for it. My face felt really puffy yesterday and I didn't feel like talking a whole lot. Drink, drink, drink is my new motto!

Also, I had someone else tell me that my voice sounds a bit different. Chris had already mentioned this to me once before. He says it sounds a little higher pitched. I can't tell! I know it feel a bit numb on the right side of the roof of my mouth and a little in the way back of my mouth too. I wonder if it's still swollen and that's why I sound different or, it's just because the roof of my mouth is a different shape now which affects the sound of my voice?? Hmmmm...

Why don't you just bring your own water to school? I keep getting that too- "Water's so important!" I try my best to get what I need but it seems more like a chore right now.
The other day I had a very small breakfast before school (nutritional shake) After about 3 hours of sitting in class, I started to get really light-headed. I felt like a was going to throw up. What I'm trying to get at is, eat and drink a lot before you go out for the day!
Today I have 9 hours of school- I'm going to gorge myself pretty soon :-)

Hey Amy,
My voice sounded different for awhile too! People kept telling me that, and I didn't really notice it till I heard my voice on our home message machine. It sounded sorta nasally, or like I was deaf or something! It was definitely due to the swelling in the rear part of my palate though. Once the swelling came down my voice returned to normal.

So...hopefully yours will too!
