Under my nose, is a bit raw from all the sneezing and wiping my nose. And every time my head is down, my nose gets all runny and ...makes a gross mess.
What can I do for tomorrow in school? We have essays to write and I can't keep my head up.
Is there anything I can do? I'm taking a tissue box of course but anything else?

If you've never done them, you take a bowl (preferably plastic) and fill it with VERY hot water, even boiling if the bowl can take it. Then you put a few herbal tea bags into it, and put your head over the bowl and breathe the steam (put a towel over your head too). This will help temporarily, and is great for falling asleep.
For a more long-term solution (like school) take something like Sudafed (even though it tastes horrible) or something for sinus pressure (depending on what you have). CVS makes something called Cold and Allergy Elixir. I find this stuff to be absolutely amazing; it works great and lasts a looong time. It's worked for everyone in my family, so I gues it's worth a shot. It's not that expensive either.
