getting sick at school SUCKS. i’m the same as leah377, i get sick constantly – when i was little i would be sick every month. now i get sick atleast a few times throughout the winter for a week or so at a time, and even in the summer i’d get sick (i’m sick now. LOL… it sucks. and i’m still working)

i really, really am horrendous at taking care of myself, and i once fell sick at school during finals when my family were all on vacation in AUSTRALIA. needless to say, i panicked and slept all day long and drank a TON of some asian herbal medical crap, and it was not a very fun time in my life, especially with two roommates that stay up til 4am yelling (i do not kid). just be sure to get plenty of rest (as much as you can in a college dorm anyways), drink alot of fluids, maybe have soup in your dining halls, eat alot of fruits, veggies, and so forth… tylenol/advil PM extra strength helps too, esp the cold kind.
