Being sick isn't any fun. Then again, who said it would be? Off the top of my head, I can think of one person who likes being sick. Well she doesn't enjoy it, but she likes something that comes along with being sick. She likes that her voice changes and it gets all raspy. I don't get it but, to each his (or her in this case) own.
What is even worse than being sick is having to go to work or do work when you're sick. Who really wants that to be honest? When I'm sick anyway, the last thing I want to think about or do is work. Yet we still have to. We have to do work and go to work. Either so we won't fail a class or to make green paper which has no real value, but yet America puts their faith in. In God We Trust, no? I personally hate money, but it's a necessity.
So where do I fall? Am I a student, or an employee? How about both. I'm a college student currently enrolled full time and at the same time an employee working around 20 hours a week. It's difficult for me to handle, but I do it because I must. Sometimes I wish I didn't have this job. I would have more free time for myself and more time to put into my schoolwork but at the same time, money is money and any amount that I can make helps.
Am I happy? I'm the happiest I've been in a long time. I know that I could definitely be happier, but I shouldn't complain. When I think about it, there are a lot of other people that are worse off than me, so I shouldn't complain about how much schoolwork I have to do or having to wake up early to go to class or having to do schoolwork. Some people can't work and then there are those that can't go to school for whatever reason.
I should be more grateful for the things I have, I really should, but I'm not. And it makes me feel like an asshole sometimes, just because I have so much, but I'm too blind to see it.
