1st thing...Get over the flu
November 14th 2007 00:25
So a few days I was at work, working extremely hard, lifting boxes, unpacking Ceramica, just plain working and I feel a scratch in the back of my throat. I drink some room temperature water and keep it moving. But it wasn't two days that had gone by when I felt paralyzed by the flu, my entire body throbbed with pain and congestion. I couldn't sleep, couldn't eat and worst of all, couldn't breath. It was horrible. I prayed, I cried, I drank garlic soup that my sister forced down my esophagus, along with this weird concoction of tea she conjured up.
How can I grow up if I can't take enough care of my body to not get the flu? Honestly, I was making amends with all that I did wrong in my short life time. Was this sickness brought to me as a curse from a friend that I recently kicked to the curb? Was this because I cheated on a Vocab Exam in the eleventh grade?
No, its because I took to many precautions. I may not have gotten a free flu vaccine when they were being passed out, but I did start wearing full winter attire two weeks prior to full winter weather. I prepared myself for the flu by making myself susceptible to it. Now that doesn't sound too grown-up now does it? Wish me well!
