The college kid germs have gotten to me. And I am sick. It is no fun, as I was sick a week before I got here too. It is not even like, sick like it's going away soon. Last Monday I got my first coldsore in many months, and also two cancker (I know that's the wrong spelling, I just don't care) sores. On Friday I got a sore throat which lasted until Monday when my nose started running. On Tuesday night, amidst the nose running my stomach started hurting. Today, Wednesday I have developed a cough to add to the ever persistent running nose and mildly irritated stomach. When will it go away? *sad face* I have a chem test on friday, I have no time for this.
And I don't know what to do. I have limited myself to drinking only juices, water, and milk (despite my extreme desire for diet coke and other sodas) and eating much less junk. Twice a day I Clorox disinfectant wipe my desk, my laptop, my computer mouse, pretty much everything in my room that I touch. About every two hours I empty my filled trashcan of tissues, I wash my hands constantly, AND I have upped my usual 2 vitamin pills per day (which is recommended as "good") to 3 pills a day (recommended as "best")
I am distressed and it is no fun :(
