Useful advice... show me please...
So i've been sick, really sick, but not seriously sick. Its not a virus, bacteria, or habit. Its allergies... I haven't had them since I was in highschool but starting from mid-October when the school decided to build a new building to house labs and since then I had trouble with my sinuses. Especially the one that controls the airflow into my nose so its a pain to breath with my nose at times. At first I did't think it was really serious, and I still don't think it is, I didn't have any fevers, colds, coughs, flu like symptoms, the only thing was that my nasal sinuses kept on becoming inflamed, runny nose and uncontrolled sneezing that could launch a car about 50 meters. That's it. So yeah allergies most probable... real serious sickness no way. Now I had these allergies till end of January. What happened? I visited Hong Kong and the moment I was in a different environment it was gone. Wow that fast? Instant? Okay then I come back at the beginning of March, and on the second day I get the runny nose symptoms again and haven't been able to shake them off since. So now who would argue that I wasn't allergic to something here huh? I still love the place no doubt, but the environment makes me hesitant to stay longer in this place then my contract.
Now that you have the background, now for the humor, or sarcasm, take it as you please but no offense is intended. But people do say useless things all the time, in fact I think 9 out of every 10 of my posts are truly, remarkably, the most useless pieces of writing. ever.
Eventually the head English Teacher in the high school found out about me being sick after coming back, and we had a little chit chat. Something like this:
teacher "Hey Chris, I heard your feeling sick these days after coming back"
me "Yeah, that's right, but I know for sure that its something in the environment, I've got allergies.. " and go on to explain to him how I know.
teacher "oh, i'm sorry for that, hmmm well you know I think you should wear some warmer clothes"
me thinking in my head...." WHAT??? Its a BALMY 28 degrees at the moment during the middle of the day and nice 20 degree temperature at night when I sleep not including the insulation factor underneath my blankets."
me "yeah I'll think about that, thanks for the advice"
Silly me, I shouldn't be mocking him, maybe wearing thick sweaters and long johns will get rid of this allergy that I have. So just remember if you've got any illness or disease the first thing you should be doing is wearing warmer clothes, and as an added bonus for the next hour only, if you send out this piece of advice to 10 people you will be protected from getting sick for a year. For every friend that also sends it out to ten people you get another year of protection.
