Never Getting Out of Bed

So, literally I couldn't agree more with Ash. In the exact same position, I can't sleep because every time I lie down, I start hacking up a lung and can't stop, so no more sleep for me. Then I can't put it better so I will use her term of FOMO (Fear of Missing Out) so I always go out which doesn't help my cough or cold. So now my cough and cold have gotten so bad my mom wants me to come home for a weekend, but that is silly. Sadly I have to just get my butt to the Health Center tomorrow again for more medication so I can sleep. I went to the Health Center last Thursday and they gave me medication for my cough and my cold so I am crossing my finger hoping that it will work and get me better already.
Not only do I have a fear of missing out, but here at school it's so hard to stay in bed when all of your friends are someplace making extravagant costumes and heading to a crazy party! You want to go, you don't want to miss out on t
he funny memories, so you drag yourself out of bed feeling like absolute hell because you don't want to stay alone in bed. However, this weekend I did stay in, because I had to. But I was so sad when all of my friends went out and I was forced to stay in. I'm beginning to feel better though, I just wish I was in bed at home instead of here.
My fear's similar to Ash's are definitely the fear of not getting my work done because I'm sick, or the fear of missing out! Hah!
So, what I have come to realize, is that if I miss out, I can not only get a good night of sleep which is important, but I can do my work and do it well! If I don't miss out, yes I go out with my friends but it's not healthy and then I'm stuck with all this work that I have to do well on when I feel like complete hell and so sick. So, I can miss out once in a while like I did this week, it's necessary and I'm so happy I missed out this weekend actually because I feel a tad better!

    Very smart staying in because well... I can only take being woken up in the middle of the night by you hacking up a lung for a little bit longer ;) I didn't think about using the chart in real life I like that you did that instead of using it for a class. FEEL BETTER

    I think i have a case of FOMO too! I talked about in my blog how I love to go out, so i use that as a reward for getting my work done. Last year I would always go out rather than stay in and do work. But these year I definitely have a lot more to work towards and a goal i am trying to achieve so I am willing to do anything (include staying in on a weekend) to achieve my goal!
