I have colds and my head is aching, I think i have flu. But I still come to work. Its been my bad habit to still go to work as long as my body can. I don't want to just laying down at hospital or in the house and doing nothing. At least I have my medicines and I think I can deal with it. I just hope it worse or else my savings will also get worsen. But as I have said, its been my bad habit.

if you work outside your house, like in an office, or when the air there is somewhat polluted, may i suggest that you wear a face mask because getting colds lowers one's immune system.

@ilocosboy not at all, kabsat. better to use the face mask or eye mask in their respective uses, and please do not wear a spiderman's mask because you cannot see, breath, and talk. hahaha!

I also don't like staying in the house when not feeling well. it makes me feel more sick.

that is the reason why as much as I can I will not just lay down. It gets me more sick.
