on behalf of all my fellow lepers

*my writing differs in POV thru out this but i don't care...enough to fix it at this point


i apologize. i know i'm one hot mess lately and i'm sorry you have to look at me. i blame it on the a-a-alcoh--- on my terrible immune system. i have the immune system of someone who's just contracted HIV.

it's like it's on its own fucked up schedule, and it never fails to miss a class. ever since 7th grade i've contracted the common cold, or the awkward disease as i've now deemed it, about three times a year for a period ranging from 2-4 weeks, or 5 weeks (case in point: the beginning of 8th grade- i set my own personal record!). not only does it never go away, but it always comes on during the worst possible time (i.e. the first day of school, coincidence? i think not.) also, seeing as its length is ridiculously long, it means i have such a shitty immune system that my body can never quite get rid of the virus (hence the HIV joke, which b-t-dubs, you should never kid about in public).
i haven't even had a full week of it yet and i'm already sick of the misery it's caused me.

i want the following things to end immediately following vnn:
- being the sniffle (more like snort) person, who's constantly gotta do just that while fellow studious pupils try to work and/or listen.
- being the person who distracts everyone by getting up to retrieve a kleenex (not a tissue; a kleenex).
- being the person who when you look at, you immediately want to look away, but you can't - cuz it's rude and they insist on talking.
- being the person that insists on talking despite the fact you not only sound gross but feel gross in knowing people have to look at you.
- being the person who jolts you awake from your in-class nap with their obnoxious coughing.
- being the person who desperately needs to clear their throat but is afraid that it will gross people out.
- being the person who you have to tell has a little somethin' somethin' there (and you're not talking about their sexiness and/or booty.)
- being the gross girl who's immediately deemed not cool because she has "allergies" (i.e. that chick from Ned's Declassified School Survival Guide)

finito.

on the plus side, there's always meds (speaking of which---i just want to clarify that i was not suggesting that i abuse nyquil in my previous blog...i just use the recommended dosage and like it.)

lol!! i can empathize w u on every bullet point... today in biology shit was actually like dripping out regardless of my violent snorting, and i actually had to resort to using the brown paper towels in his shitty room because he can't keep a single box of kleenex in there...god that was nasty and it killed my nose..

don't worry tho, if all else fails we can cut off our noses and just permanently switch to breathing through our mouths..

what a violent approach.
