最后还是不抵感冒而倒下了。因为担心是Flu还专门去校医院做了一个流感测试（很难过的测试。。>_<）

幸好没得。

Finally have to being sick once for this winter and have a Flu test to eliminate my concern. (It’s a terrible test… >_<)

Glad I don’t have flu….

都怪上周乍暖还寒的错觉，让我以为春天要到了，熬了很久冬天的自己，一下子没收的住狂躁的心，第二天早晨醒来，嗓子开始疼，随之而来的是咳嗽和流鼻涕等症状。

Contributing to the spring illusion in last week, I naively thought spring is coming. After expecting it for such a long winter, I probably was too exciting, and turns out with sore throat in the very next day.

Eura很激动，Color你一定要听我的，赶紧去做个Flu Test, 我当年就是耽误了48小时治疗期，然后才一拖很久…………

Eura is more exciting than me, “Color, you have to listen to me, go to have a flu test now” she said, “I was in your position and wasted my time for best treatment within 48 hours, and make it a serious one later.”

Okay. Let’s go.

药物建议

Medication Suggestions

• 抗生素是没用的，如果你一周过后没有缓解反而症状加重的话，可以开始使用抗生素，但是之前，尽量用你自身的抵抗力来对抗感冒
• Don’t use antibiotics for normal cold. It is useless. Antibiotics could be used only after you did not feel any better after one week. Before that, let your own body’s defenses fight off the germs.
• 为了减轻感冒症状，可以使用一些非处方缓解症状的药物，譬如acetaminophen, decongestants, nose drops or sprays, cough remedies, and throat lozenges.
• 最好使用那些对某一症状有作用的药物，譬如runny nose, 而不要使用针对多种症状的药物
• If use drugs, use product works for one symptom, such as a runny nose, rather than a multi-symptom product.

情人节快乐！ 

元宵（sweet dumplings）- traditional food in Lantern's Festival

元宵节快乐！

Happy Valentine’s Day, nerds!

Besides, happy Chinese Lantern Festival!

我在肯特见识过了各种各样的人才，以及各种各样的生活态度。这不是一个复杂的生活环境，却装满了各种各样复杂的人物关系。星座书说摩羯座今年会变感情咨询师，有时候和各种各样的人聊起这里的生活的时候，有时还真有这种错觉。

生活在一个全新的环境，当爱情，友情，亲情全线位移，生活的地点180度的旋转，但是生活的态度却仍要坚守在一个坐标。

I have seen a lot different kinds of people here and a lot different attitudes of living abroad. This is not a complicated environment but fulfill with complicated relationship. Horoscope book says that Capricornus this year is playing a consultant role, and I do feel that way sometimes. 

Lantern Exhibition

Living in a total new environment, while there you have to replace your whole relationships including love, friendship and kinship, but the only thing you do not want to replace is your attitude towards them.

爱情 Love

很多人在坚持一场异地恋，很多人被异地恋打败，生活是一场演出，却演不出人心的苦辣酸甜。我是异地恋的失败者，但是我由衷地佩服那些能坚持到底，至少是坚持到现在的人。

时间是谋杀一段感情的凶手，距离也是.当你们之间的共同话题越来越少，当你们看到的未来越来越模糊，你怎么维护这段爱情？有时候正是因为把感情看得太过认真，所以犹豫太多，迟疑太久，然后不知该如面对支离破碎的感情。

朋友说了一句话给我听，有时候，我们总在想前面有多少困难，多少辛苦，于是在这些困难还没到来的时候就把自己吓退，可是如果我们真心想要在一起，就会去想想怎么样克服这些困难，怎么样在一起。另一对坚持了很久的异地恋情，也常常吵架缠身，但是她说，不管怎样生气，在道别的时候都要对对方说“我爱你”。

我们的爱情，就是要被这些小小的真心连在一起，然后才能看到一个闪亮的未来。所以，请不要吝惜你对爱的表达。

Long distance relationship, I never see so much long distance relationship in my life. Sometimes you win, but most time you lose. Life is a show, but cannot perform your heart. I am a loser of long distance, but I do admire those ones who still hanging there, at least hanging for now.

Time is a murder for killing a relationship, so is distance. While the topics for sharing are getting less and less, while future is getting blurrier and blurrier, how can you find a way to maintain your feeling for each other? Most time, we just treat it too serious, so we hesitate too much and too long, and convince ourselves to give up this hopeless feeling.

I question myself, and maybe get an answer by chatting with a friend. He is saying based on his own experience, “We are always thinking about how many difficulties we are going to encounter, how long we have to hanging there, and scare ourselves away even before we actually face them. But if I want to be with this person, I would like to think about how to conquer tribulation and be together.” Another girl who lasting for a long time LDR said that, the quarrel is unavoidable, but no matter how mad they were during the quarrel, they made a rule to tell each other “I love you” before farewell.

Our love, it connected by these tiny heartfelt expressions and indicates a shinning future. So, do not hesitate for your expression of love to those person you truly love.
