I don't like being sick if I have a fever or something really terrible. But if it's a 24- or 48-hour cold, then that's fine. They are much easier to cure than a fever, which saps my energy and makes me feel tired and useless.
When I have a fever, all I want to do is sleep and drink milky tea with honey. But I don't like to miss school because the only thing worse than a fever is having to catch up on all the lesson I missed. I'm presuming the same goes for work if you are an adult. It's kind of like a bus stop: if you miss the bus you can run to try and catch it, and sometimes you do. However, if you miss the bus, you have to take the one, which means you're going to be late.
All this talk about being sick makes me wonder: why are we always getting colds? Maybe we don't wash our hands enough? Is it that the virus is always slightly mutating?
The common cold doesn't make me sick so much as annoyed.
