Sick

As you can guess, I am pretty sick. It all started when my friend from the dorm got a cold, and then I knew eventually I would as well. While living in the dorms you notice that if one person gets sick, then everyone does just because of the fact that we are all living together. So, as of Monday I have had the same nose running, throat scratching congested cold. Instead of complaining about how miserable my week has been, I'm going to instead tell you what i have found out to be really helpful. Drink lots of water and orange juice, keep away from milk and coffee because it just adds phlegm to your system, get as much sleep as possible (even though as an art student that is very difficult) and keep yourself motivated. The rest is all up to your immune system. I am not saying these things will make you better right away, but they will help you feel better and get over the cold quicker. Besides the cold my week has been awesome though. I have had the best time in my classes and our industrial design group is finally turning into a family. It's a beautiful beginning of the fall and hopefully I will not be sick that much longer in it!
