Emotional Release D: Final

This week-end I have been very sick (and still am). Being sick can be a very emotional experience filled with the frustration of not being able to clearly think, walk, sleep, eat, etc. As I write this I am constantly sniffling, rubbing my eyes, going to the bathroom, sneezing, coughing, feeling weak, and of course being fairly annoyed with the situation. I also would like to say that having homework does not make this any better...

But that's besides the point...

In addition, this weekend I finally got a new computer which ordinarily would be awesome but the effect is weakened by the fact that every few minutes I find myself staring at my bed thinking about sleeping and then realizing I have to type this. I would not use the verb 'explode' to describe how I am writing this anyway (nor would I describe it as 'therapeutic'). In all truth I hope I never remember this weekend except for getting my computer and going on Skyline Drive with my Dad, (which is about 10000 times more therapeutic).

Hmm...

I also thought it might be fun to write pretty much exactly what I'm thinking about right now (mostly I wish I was not sick and I wish I had no homework.)

I hope that I will be well enough to go back to school tomorrow. I also can't tell right now if I'm hungry or not.

To get back on track:

Being sick is really irksome. You don't want to talk and can't talk right even if you wanted to because your throat's sore. You can't taste anything, which makes meals a little less exciting. You have to take vitamins and/or medicine and most of all you can't focus. One of the most frustrating things about being sick and having a sore throat is deciding whether or not to take cough drops. It's a no-win situation because if you don't take them your throat will still hurt and if you do you'll get a stomach ache. You also have to deal with being extremely tired but lying in bed all night because you can't sleep. This is usually because of either a sore throat or a stomach ache. Another wish I have is for a cure for the common cold.

Also, being sick is bothersome because I always have to either stay away from everyone or risk spreading your cold to my friends and family. I usually stay away and end up feeling sort of lonely and mad about the whole situation, (like now). In a way I guess writing this is sort of an emotional release but it's not enjoyable and really fixes nothing. Right now I'm thinking it'd be fun to put some onomatopoeia in to this like 'sneeze' or 'sniffle'.

Overall I feel annoyed at myself for not writing this before I got sick and wondering if I will feel well enough to go to school tomorrow. I'm not up to it at the moment... I really hate being sick the most out of the 'normal' types of inconvenience because it makes everything else seem worse than it actually is.

In conclusion, being sick is quite bothersome, annoying, perturbing, vexing, irritating, disturbing, and agitating. For many reasons I find that being sick is one of the worst conditions, especially for working, that you can have. I really want someone to end disease altogether so that nobody else will have to go through a weekend like this one. I hope I will not be missing anymore school this year. Anyway, stay healthy out there.

In conclusion, I'm sorry if I rambled too much but being ill is definitely one of the most negative influences on my writing. I wish this topic had been on something outside of my world to distract me from being sick. I guess it could have been worse and I'm glad I'm not in any serious trouble.
