Writer's Block: Quarantine Etiquette

Dec 15, 2008 00:26

Oh goshes how weird is this? I just so happened to have caught a cold right now!! It sucks. And I know how I got it- a couple days ago, during my final, the WHOLE lecture hall was coughing and sneezing and I was so afraid I'd get sick too!! And I did. I haven't had a cold or the flu in... two years, I think. I get stomach problems- like gall stone or ulcers and stuff, but never the flue or colds... and I owe it all to orange juice! But now I finally did get sick, and I'm tired of sneezing and the area around my nose burns from using so many tissues!

I try to stay home and just get over it- I hate getting germs, so I try to avoid spreading them- since I haven't been sick in ages and haven't had to miss anything, that's good- and school just ended two days ago for me so that's amazing timing too!

I think the best thing to do when you're sick is to just stay home, keep warm, drink lots of water and orange juice and soup, sweat it out, and then you're good to go. Literally just take an entire day off to suffer, and it pays off. It really takes only a day or two of doing exactly that for it to be over with! (Oh GOSH unless you have the stomach flu, which really is horrible and takes several days, sadly) Otherwise, if you try to go to work or school... unless something extremely important is going on that really can't be rescheduled... it takes longer to get better, drags it out, and you also get other people sick. Seriously.

:) Weird timing with this prompt tho!!!!
