Sick days were the best growing up. My mom would get me popsicles to "get down my fever," I would eat alphabet soup, and watch movies all day. Being sick now is definitely not as fun. Being an "adult" means that when you're sick you have to take care of yourself. Here's why being sick while in college is a struggle.
1. When you feel like death, but your class has an attendance policy
2. Showing up to class looking straight out of the Walking Dead
3. Trying to cough quietly in class, not to interrupt
4. When the whole class acts like you have the plague
5. Having to make your own doctors appointment
6. Having to make your own soup and it not being brought to you in bed
7. Discovering how expensive cough medicine is
8. Calling your mom and telling her how gross you feel
9. When your roommates ask if you are feeling better
10. Remembering your student loans and actually considering dying
11. When you start feeling better
Feel better my friends!
