I have a lot to say but right now isn't really the time to be saying it.

I really just need to express my sheer ANGER:

My roomate is a nice girl. We're very different, but that's ok. We don't fight (at least over anything realistic) and we really don't argue. We keep our stuff to ourselves and ask if the other needs something on the other's desk. But if it's a pair of scissors to cut off a tag, my life will go on. I promise.

Anyway, my roomate has had a cough for a week now. I keep asking if she's ok, and she keeps telling me yes. Funny thing is, the cough keeps getting worse. I'm not going to play doctor or anything, but i can hear the difference between a "there's a funny feeling in my throat" cough and a "there is shit in my lungs" cough. I keep asking her to take medicine, mostly because i have no interest in getting sick, but she keeps making excuses.

This isn't a big deal, except for one key fact:

SHE DOESN'T COVER HER MOUTH WHEN SHE COUGHS.

She just sits there and coughs her gross bacteria and sickly germs into the air we both breathe. At the age of 18, how do you not cover your mouth when you cough? How do you not realize the unsanitary factor? I mean, really, how can you be dumb?

It just sucks because i can feel myself getting the cough, and i know i wouldn't have it if she would cover her mouth.
