A freaky review:
The Common cold is a condition, which sticks to you. It strikes at the best times, weddings, before a presentation, a big date vaghera, vaghera. As I sniffle into this review, a warning, this aint for the weak of heart.
:-)
The cold is the amalgamation of a lot of messy and jelly-like stuff called phlegm(Is'nt phlegmatic a complement? :).
The cold usually catches onto your system, when a pal sneezes in your face and sheepishly muffles a sorry-something. Or when you use a'infected' straw to gulp down the cold Pep$i.
Cold usually leads to sore throat, heaviness in the head and a very very nasty-tasting tonic from your local GP.
As you have prolly guessd by now, I have the cold(or code, as you may hear it) and have sneezed on my keyboard twice.
I am one of those people who has multiple sneezes( very much like the multiple'unmentionable word') and so when I get a cold, usually I bring down the house in a day or two.
Remedies:
Have heard that Vicks in hot water and breathing the steam works, well it dont for me, only makes it worse. I usually have an ice cream or two, and then sleep
throughout the day.
Another thing that you could do, is go to the doc, ingest his chemicals and hope for the unstuffening of the nose to occur.
Nothing works against the cold, and its better for nature to take its own time and pray that the body takes care of the cold in a few days time.
The only positive I see in a cold, is the'sexiness' that shines through in my voice, suddenly my brays get replaced by a bass-heavy Barry White kinda voice(that presumably is supposed to drive the ladies wild. will leave that for another day).
Signs that you're having a cold, and a bad one at that:
1.Tee shirts that have wet spots where you've just wiped your nose(eeewwww!)
2.Lots ans lots of hankies suddenly find use.
3.Half the nose-hole, choc-a-bloc with Godknowswhat amd the other half, like the Bhramaputra in full flow.
- People suddenly stay away from you and eating their dabbas at lunch is nigh impossible.
