2. When they mention that they have a fever:

3. When you're trying to take care of them, but the idea of getting sick has you like:

4. When there's a pile of tissues on their bed that mock you from across the room:

5. When you realize the door knob probably has millions of germs living on it:

6. When people tell you that you're bound to catch the plague too, and you're just like:

7. When your roommate apologizes for the spread of their germs, and does the best they can not to infect you:

8. But then you start to sniffle a little bit, but tell yourself that you're fine:

9: And then the sniffles turn into sneezes, and a sore throat makes an appearance too:

10. And then you become a victim to the plague:

11. And then your roommate gets healthy, and you're just like:

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.
