Yay! :-D It has been a good time for me in general. We had the traditional family dinner, went for a trip the next day and yesterday I went on another to see an old friend. Can't really complain except I caught a cold and I'm not feeling very well now :disagree:

Just a quick heads-up, it's been changed to Unreal Tournament 3.

Random thought: colds aren't horrible per se, they're horrible when the weather outside is wonderful and you have to stay inside with a fever. Good thing that was yesterday. I feel better today. :-D

I loved being sick when I was a child. It gave me a great excuse to not visit school. Lying in bed all day, reading, watching TV, my worrying parents buying me stuff. Yeah, that was life.

It did have a positive aspect but I'd rather I was healthy even then! :)

I used to think that way too before I really got sick. Such a horrible feeling... I'm telling you, I'd prefer to go to school instead of being sick at home. Even watching TV or playing on the computer becomes boring when I'm sick (don't ask me why, I don't know...)

I won't wish to be :ill: ever again!

Man, you're sick. :|

Of course, you didn't had to visit the same school.

I'd still prefer to lose half of my day (at school) and then coming back home healthy than being at home all day but not feeling well and having fever...

Of course, it depends on the type of the illness. Some of them can be really nasty, but a simple cold was less horrible than that school.

Oh, I was reffering to some nasty type of illness, a minor and simple cold is alright :D
