Salutations fellow internet people!
Now before you judge me for my song choice, just listen to it. Really pay attention to the lyrics because they are just.....**sigh** They're deep. It brings me back to the good times.
ANYWAYS! Back to the topic.
So I have a bit of a cold right now which sucks, but I'm pushing through it. And by pushing through, I mean taking as many medications as I can to get over this as quick as possible. Because its the time transitioning between winter and spring, the wind has the tendency to blow pollen EVERYWHERE, thus sparking allergy season.
When I went to school today, I thought I wasn't the only one that was sick because the vast majority of students were sniffling and rubbing their noses too. Then when my friend groaned and said "oh you have allergies too?" that's when I realized I was the only one that was legitly (yes I know that is not a real word but I like using it) sick. When I told them I was sick, they asked why I was at school and apparently not all parents force their kids to go to school when their sick...? My mom says that being sick is not an excuse to miss school. During one of my easy classes, I just sat there and pondered the pros and cons of being sick.
Pros
  1. You get to stay home
  2. You get extra time to do assignments
  3. You can finally finish that book/tv series/movie/DIY project you started
  4. SOUP
  5. You get to sleep all day because you need to "feel better"
  6. No one wants to touch your stuff because it's "contaminated"
  7. Special treatment from your caretakers
  8. You can stay in bed all day
Cons
  1. You might be forced to go to school
  2. You are behind in both the lesson and assignments
  3. EVERYTHING happens during school the day that you're gone
  4. It's hard to sleep because you can't breathe, so you sleep with your mouth slightly open so you end up drooling everywhere
  5. Coughing feels like you're about to throw up an organ
  6. You're hot and sweaty from fevers
  7. You can't have any dairy products (it creates more mucus in your throat)
  8. No one wants to be around you
  9. Gross-tasting medicine
  10. Showers feel like you're drowning
I feel like I'm missing more, but I just can't think of them right now.
I always know when I'm sick because it always starts with a sore throat. Is that just me, or does anybody else get that too? **Groaning** I think I've sniffled about 50 times while writing this post **congested sigh**
