thought these things only happened to old people
woke up in the middle of the night to a searing pain in my lower back, thought there was something wrong with my spine and panicked. fell back to sleep and in the morning, called mom and dad who were at the market to tell them about it and i was scared i almost threw up. but i told myself that it was just hysteria and i showered and tried not to panic. went for tuina and it still hurts like fuck but it's a lot better without the mental scariness! just hoping it'll resolve itself in a couple of days, and that i won't have to sit on a plane for 20+ hours with this ache.
in other news, sent jez off on thursday morning and then proceeded to sleep the entire day away. sometimes i miss him and sometimes i don't. the pain isn't so acute as to be unbearable, and most of the time it's not so much a pain as it is a matter of fact. i guess that's a good thing. i think i could learn to live with it. but of course, going from seeing him almost everyday for long stretches at a time to not seeing him at all is bound to take some getting used to. texting helps.
hoho speaking of texting i forgot to refill my prepaid so i think i wasted about $60... dad was pissed. i don't know when i'll learn to manage my money more efficiently. i keep thinking that i'm getting better at this being an adult thing, albeit very slowly, but still there's more to be cautious of, and more to learn. next semester i'm going to try and save $2500 so that i can have some money for travelling again. i like being financially independent and not being a burden to my parents. so i guess that means i'm going to have to start using money wisely and maybe cooking edible food, since i'm not getting any income other than what the ministry's giving me. hmm. have to remember to call them up on monday to ask about whether i'm allowed to work. that would help.
... this must be the longest i've blogged in a really long time.
