What kind of illness (if any) am I being struck by (details)?

Sorry, I know it's long!

Alright. I'm a college kid so I know that I'm getting exposed to all kinds of nasty bacteria and viral critters, but I want to get an idea of which one might be biting me at the moment so that I can deal with it as best as possible. (It's finals week, and I really don't need this added stress of what it could be. I know I won't be getting doctoral answers, likely, but if I can narrow the long list down a bit, fantastic!) Saturday, my stomach was kinda blah, but I wasn't super nauseous, per say. As I was going to bed tonight, I suddenly got nauseous and my stomach got a hungry-sick feeling. I had eaten popcorn about a half hour before as I sometimes do for a night snack, so I know I wasn't hungry. After a little while, I got very cold and shakes started. Checked for a temp- I was normal for me (slightly low, actually, but only a little- nothing alarming). Now, about an hour later, I'm feeling better. I'm still a bit cold, slightly shaky, and a little nauseous (took some pink bismuth, seems to be working). What the heck?! Is this two different colds or one big one. Oh, I've been really really tired (not sure if that's the period, the finals, or the critter though... maybe all three) What could it possibly be?

*Also, got my period Sunday night. The Saturday ickiness was not woman-originated. It felt different. As usual, I only felt like super crap Monday and a little Tuesday morning (day one day two). This bug is not related, totally different thing, as far as my experience tells me. Just ruling out woman-ness.
