Catch Some Z's

I always know when I am about to get sick.  That time is right now.

I can feel it in my eyes, nose, throat, and pretty much everywhere else.  By no means am I a doctor, and by no means is my advice the be all end all.  That being said, I have three tips to avoid falling even further into a cold once it's already on its way.

1. Drink tons of water.  I typically realize (in retrospect) that I don't drink as much water as I think I am.  I'm convinced that if I walked around with a Camelback full of water, I would not be sneezing.

2. APPLES!!! So, I am very allergic to apples.  Every time I eat them my nose, eyes, and throat start itching.  Regardless of how annoying this is, I eat at least one apple every single day.  I tell myself that this will help me avoid meeting with Susan Kitei, and as a result, also avoid the email she will inevitably send the entire student body about what's wrong with me.

3.  Last, but certainly not least, sleep.  I think that taking a nap every day not only helps me rejuvenate after six hours of classes, but it also makes whatever symptoms show up in the middle of the day essentially disappear.  I always feel better after resting in bed for 20 minutes before starting my work for the night, and I think you will too!
