[Image: 6-piece blue colored background with a Siamese cat.Text reads: “Your completely legit medical excuse: I slept through my alarm”] Even though it is caused by genuine health reasons, I still find it really embarrassing to have to apologize to my teachers or my teammates for being late. I can follow it up with “I’m sorry, it’s because of my illness/the side effects of my medication”, but unless I elaborate on my entire medical history, it still just sounds like “sorry, I hit the snooze button one time too many”.
