Today is a rubbish day in my world as I'm sick....yes...I'm afraid to say I feel very sorry for myself, but surely the first step of a cure is admiting that? I have a common cold, which really annoys me as it makes you feel like utter rubbish and yet you get NO sympathy as you simply have the common cold. Where is the happy medium? You can't even cough or blow your nose before someone says a sarcastic comment such as ''ohhhh get over it'' or ''it's only a bloody cold''.....well yes I know that, but it doesn't take away the fact that between the black eyes, lip bleeding every minute, nose like a watertap and voice as tho I've smoked 40 cigs a day for 10 years... the cold is making me feel like crap! I'm also on countdown mode to graduating University (hopefully obtaining a degree) but there is one thing which I shall never understand. Students attend the average university course for 3 years - I have recently been told that it is only my 3rd year which counts towards my degree, thus bringing me to ask what have the past 2 years been relevent for?? Why on earth have I been paying ridiculous fee's to attend a campus and stress myself into a hermit to do coursework and revise for exams when they aren't relevant to the piece of paper which I'll get handed in July which will tell me whether I have the mental capacity to gain a degree....The older I get the more I begin to look at situations without rose tinted glasses - in other words everything can p*ss off and let me mope about feeling very sorry for myself - Now someone pass me a cup of tea and a soother and leave me to grump at the world in peace!
