This spring, I got a cold. It started yesterday when I woke up with a sore throat and a red nose. My head hurt, and I felt very tired. My mum said, “You should stay home today.” In the afternoon, we went to the doctor’s office. The nurse gave me a note for school. The doctor looked at my ears and said, “It’s nothing dangerous, just a virus.” He also asked, “How do you feel today?” I said, “I feel sick and a little sad because I missed swimming class.” He smiled and said, “yeah, but you’ll be better soon.” He gave me some medicine and said, “Take this twice a day for three days.” Now I’m lying on the sofa in my sweater, drinking tea and watching the rain outside. I hope I get better by Monday!
