Roommate had the flu, now it’s my turn

On Friday, my roommate started feeling sick. By Saturday, he had a full-on flu: fever, coughing, and a nose like a running faucet. The worst part is, he’s super clean, washes his hands, covers his mouth when he coughs, throws his tissues out of the room… the guy’s a hygiene role model.

And yet, this morning I woke up with a sore throat. Guess it was only a matter of time. Now we’re both here, buried under blankets and tissues, coughing our souls out.

It’s not the first time—we always end up passing around the viruses that are going around campus. Do you guys get sick from your roommates too? Share your worst stories so I can feel better about mine.
