Advice & Tips
Just know what you're getting into when you start. For me, I could really care less, so it doesn't bother me. Whatever keeps me occupied. For other people it might not work like that. For one thing, your immunity system is wacked, so you're sick easier and longer, which might not be the best thing for someone already feeling like crap. So again I say, KNOW WHAT YOU'RE GETTING INTO.
