Down with cough & flu

Chinese New Year holiday has just passed and I've been sick for the past few days. Cough is getting worse and the minor flu don't seem to go away. To make things worse, there are too much homework and assignments from college which makes me feel like fainting. I still often wonder why do the school/lecturers gave us so much work till we can barely breath. According to one of my friend, we have a total of 13-14 assignment to complete in a 4-month semester (including the CNY holidays). God~ please let me recover asap so that I can complete the "tortures" a.k.a assignments, given to us before the due date!
