Last Campus Safari


As a college student it is very easy to get sick since you are always around people. For example, I have been sick twice while in college going to the health center because of colds which later turned into strep throat the couple of times I have been sick, then when I got better my roommates got sick which I felt bad cause I thought that I had got them sick. What they recommend me to do when I got the health center was to do when you have strep is to make sure you are drinking lots of fluid like tea and Gatorade. Also, it is important to get your rest, so you should try to go to bed early. If you are not feeling better in a couple of days then go back to the health center to get checked out again to see how your progress is going if it comes down to it for you to be put on antibiotics. But the question I ask myself. In college how you can stay healthy? First make sure you are always washing your hands and don’t put your hands near your face. When coughing or sneezing do those things into your arm not your hands because when you go to touch something you are spreading germs. Secondly, you need to make sure you are getting plenty of rest and eating right. If you abuse your body not eating, or drinking correctly going to bed at late hours your body will never heal, and you will stay sick or need medicine. Lastly, if you feel like you are becoming ill make an appointment to get checked out at the health center before it becomes worse you wouldn’t want to go home and be sick and miss out on classes and have all this work to make up on if your professor lets you.
