This week I have tried to sit next to the aisle when I have attended lectures. This is because sometimes I would have a very serious coughing fit and the coughing would last for a long time. Therefore, in this moment, I would prefer to leave the classroom as I don't want to interrupt the lectures.
However, my French classmate told me she feels this behaviour is weird although she knows the reason why I left the classroom. She said that western people would not act like that maybe because they are generous. They like to share viruses. I appreciate her for telling me what she thinks and I think she is very thoughtful and kind. But I will still get out of the classroom when I have a coughing fit next time.
