God has granted me a gift: I am nearly always sick in some form or fashion. Therefore, I can only miss school when I am absolutely contagious and am a danger to my fellow students. Somedays, however, when I feel terrible because of any one of my issues (hypoglycemia, migographia, dyslexia, etc.), I must feign an illness to avoid school. As I've grown, I've become incredibly convincing.
1. Start the night before— if you have a feeling that tomorrow will not be your day, make sure to "go to sleep" earlier than normal and remind your parents that you feel sick.
2. Use makeup, if you can—I apply a base coat to my face in my mom's shade to appear paler than normal (if that's possible) and use concealer on my lips to really look sick.
3. If things get really desperate— put some water in your mouth, stand over the toilet, and let it all spill out loudly. Then immediately flush and go to your parents.
Use these tips wisely.
