It's that time of year again.. when the wind whips through all of the buildings on campus and the sky is constantly overcast.. in other words, my least favorite time of the year. :/ Don't get me wrong, I love Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Year's, bonfires, the scent of pine and cookies in the oven, it's just the weather that always gets to me. I thrive in the sun and warm air, and the lack of it during half the year simply sucks.
It's also the easiest time of year to get sick! I feel like I may be developing a little bit of a cold, too. :[ College students just can't afford to get sick! I have a three exams over the next two weeks, two labs, a lot of work shifts, and I'll be traveling to New York next weekend for the Quidditch World Cup. I think I'm going to drink A LOT of orange juice over the next couple of days and make sure that I stay out of the yucky weather..
In case, you do get sick to the point of needing medical attention, Olin Health Center is conveniently RIGHT on campus in East Circle Drive up by Grand River. MSU students are allowed a courtesy prepaid three visit limit for simple services like obtaining a doctor's note and prescribing medicine for illness. They offer a variety of other services including flu and allergy immunization, drug abuse and health clinics, distribution of birth control and sex education, and just general health information. They even have transportation services via courtesy van or cab if the issue is that serious! But if Olin isn't the place you're looking for, there's Lansing Urgent Care and Sparrow Hospital in Lansing as well. You can check out all that information here.
So moral of the story.. don't get sick! Stay safe and health conscious and you won't have to worry about any of this. :] Happy November!
