When you're away in school and become sick, there are certain things you realize about the process. You might wish you were home being taken care of by your parents, or that it was easy to just pay a visit to your familiar doctor, and you'll probably wish that you had all your normal home remedies to get better. You'll probably relate to all these scenarios when it comes to being sick in school.

1. If one person in your class coughs, there is a good chance that the entire class will be infected.

2. Without the care and reassurance of your parents and physician, sometimes your only option is self diagnosis from Google results.

3. This self diagnosis will often come as a result of WebMD. If all your symptoms match then you'll probably end up thinking you have something much worse than it actually is.

4. The only way to get better is to buy all possible remedies within reach. By the time you're done being sick, you'll be beyond prepared for any future illnesses.

5. Accomplishing anything, other than getting out of bed for medicine and food or changing your position on the couch, will be nearly impossible.

6. But when you finally have the energy to attempt to be productive, you dress and protect yourself in anyway possible to prevent yourself from getting worse.

7. Dealing with the side effects in class can also be one of the most difficult parts of being sick in school. After a few coughs, you begin to feel self conscious from all the piercing stares.

8. There's always a little bit of regret after being sick, such as wishing you wore another layer or just took care of yourself a little better.

9. And as if coughing excessively wasn't bad enough, your nose can't give you a break either.

10. After a full recovery of being sick and miserable you can't take any chances of getting sick again -so you take every precaution necessary.
