Things are looking up.
Abdomen is fine. Yay! I've lost more weight and I feel pretty good. I'm not on a diet but I am watching my sugar intake. And, I'm eating a lot less which is another good thing. I still splurge but I'm completely okay with it. Like I said, I'm not on a diet.
I finally caught up in school and then my computer crashed. :( Now it's fixed and I'm even slightly ahead. Don't really know any grades. Two classes we haven't had anything graded yet, and the other two I don't really know my grades. But, I think I'm doing fine.
I went home yesterday morning. It was somewhat of a last minute decision and I'm so glad I made it. I don't like Valentine's Day very much but yesterday was a really good day. To cheer me up, my parents sent me flowers and Mom sent me a small care package a few days ago. It really made my week. :) Last night I went to dinner with my parents then met up with Rusty and a couple of his friends for some drinks. Super fun! I like his friends a lot. Mom made a big breakfast for me before I came back to school.
I am diligently working on creating a scholarship/raising money/coming up with events to raise money for my friend who passed away last summer. I didn't plan on having (as large of ) a role as I do, but it just kinda happened. I'm really glad it did. Last week I was asked to attend to upcoming meetings regarding plans for the scholarship. Then, I was made a member of the Student Council for College Advancement (SCCA) which apparently you have to apply for but I don't? I'm honored but why me? Yeah...I have taken on quite a bit this year. This week will be really busy but I'm okay with it.
I'm pretty content with life at the moment. I'm handling things well, even the things that are unexpectantly thrown at me. It was awesome visiting home and I think it has given me a slight boost to get through this week.
And, Mardi Gras starts this weekend! I can't wait for New Orleans.
