Confessions of A Swineist

According to my mother, I have caught the flu. The swine flu to be exact. I thought it would never happen to me, it couldn't happen to me.  Swine flu was just something you saw in movies, not something you actually had.  Well, I have it.  That is why I am at home. That is also why I am blogging during the school day.  Anyway, some confessions are listed below.

-I honestly haven't felt this bad since God knows when.  Ask God the last time I felt this bad, he can tell you.

-Swine flu makes it sound dirty, please call it H1N1 (hydrogen monitrogen).

-The doctors office is very busy with all the people catching the flu, they probably aren't too happy about that.  It makes you wonder why doctors never seem to get sick.  They see tons of sick people each day, why are they not sick themselves?

-The worst part about this flu is the dizziness.  Whenever I try to stand up, I almost pass out and have to sit back down again.  And the back of my head feels really weird, like a scary clown yo-yo movie.

-I realized that missing school isn't nearly as fun as it used to be.  Yes, you can eat whatever you want, have your parents wait on you, and do whatever you like, it just doesn't seem the same anymore...

-I think teachers need to recognize how troublesome an illness can be for a student.  When you are sick, there is almost no way you can do homework.  You generally want to sleep, not work.  I thought I would be able to catch up on some homework today, but found myself in bed more than expected.

-It is hard to keep my thoughts focused...
