this is really an emo thing to whine over but it really hurts.

it is ok when i have been coughing for days, no one ask about it.

it is not ok when i have been coughing for days, bro coughed for a day, and he got nagged at to take medicine and to see a doc.

sometimes, i wonder if im too independent or too emo. maybe it's the middle child sydrome. maybe it's that i have my fair share of attention when i was much younger.
