Who knew there would be downsides to quarantine? Certainly not me.
Quarantine hasn't exactly been the dream, as there is still school. It feels harder than regular school. The teachers assign just as much homework if not more, even though they have two classes a week rather than the regular five.
But that isn't the topic of today's blog. Today's blog is about my eye.
I'm not sure how I contracted sty, but I think it was because I rubbed my eye with dirty hands. But that's not important. I can't remember when I first realized I had it. I first realized something may be wrong when I looked at myself in the mirror and I saw that my left eye was more swollen than my right eye. After a while a lump formed on my bottom eyelid.
Just for information's sake, this isn't me, it's a picture I got from google. But my eye looks similar to his eye in this picture.
After finding out the name of the infection I had, I went straight to the internet. I found that it can last for a matter of days to a few weeks. I was given some medication to combat it, two different eye-drops. One is supposed to be taken three to five times a day, and the other is only used for when I feel discomfort.
When I first speculated that I had an infection, I remembered a Friends episode that I watched. Rachel had an eye infection, but since she hated having her eye touch things, she didn't want to go to the hospital. After refusing eye-drops, the doctor said she could come back in a month to get a glass eye, which evidently freaked her out.
I'm not sure whether or not my infection would really do that to me, but I was still kind of worried. I didn't act on that, and I only tell you because I find it pretty interesting.
That's it for today's blog.
I will actually be posting another blog today, because this was a draft from yesterday that I forgot to publish,

You can remove the last two paragraph as it doesnt add value to the blog.
