Rinse - repeat.

I feel so icky ... in my mind a voice is constantly telling me that I now have only two more treatments left but I feel as if I have just started with the whole thing. Getting the IV today (or any day after a resting time) is always the worst. I desperately try to keep my tea in but I think I will loose the battle.

Additionally, I think I'm coming down with a cold or something as all my limbs are aching. Ganbatte!! Need to finish this chapter and then I'll take a nap. Hopefully I will feel better later today.

Ah, this is from my work experience. :) In 2002 McLaren F1 team invited international group of journalists to their tests at Barcelona racing circuit. The hit of their program was the ride in a car with one of McLaren racing drivers. Not the F1 car of course, just Mercedes SLK, but specially tuned, very powerful, almost like F1.

I was in the car with Juan-Pablo Montoya.

The Columbian drove me only 3 laps, but it was quite enough for me, I confess! :) My vestibular system is not that strong, so already at the 3d lap I felt myself almost sick, like at the ship in a big storm!

But it was great experience anyway. On the main strait Montoya made almost 300 km/h! Also I can imagine now the F1 style of hard braking with it's huge g-forces - this is very impressive.

Wow, SUGOI!! Must have been a wonderful experience :) Almost like flying a jet.

Yeah, it was great! Gave me a lot of shrills. But a bit nauseous, too. You know, the strongest impression is not speed - the car is so good (and the superb driver - too!) that even at almost 300 you just don't realize that it goes SO quick.

The strongest impression is F1 style braking. This is really something special! The car, which moves at a VERY high speed, suddenly just "stops" - and begins to turn into the corner... Oh, the g-forces are SO strong that you can't hold your hear straight and your stomach just jump somewhere! =( Not a very pleasant feeling, I have to say! these F1 drivers are great athletes to go on like that for 1,5 hours of the race.

I can imagine :) Though I wouldn't mind such a ride for 1.5 hours :)

Oh, no, this is not for my stomach! ;)

But of course it was in Ferruary 2005, not in 2002...
I'm always a big mess with dates! :)

Still, it must have been a great experience :)
