I didn't know I was living in a co-ed dorm!!!
Just when I thought my roommate couldn't get ANYmore girly... he did. I walked in on him. Yeah that's right. I walked in on what nobody wants to walk in on as a guy's doing that thing. Yep, that thing is WATCHING THE OC!!! Now I'll go ahead and admit right now that I did watch 1 episode a few weeks ago for the simple reason of making fun of lawn boy and the drama that he was sure to cause. For you sad OC fans, it was the one when (I don't know names so I'll make it up) she's(Shanekwa) making out with the lawn boy and he(Spiderman) drives up just in time to see the horror. Yeah I saw that scene about 30 times on Saved By The Bell... predictable. Then I pick up the remote, and he squirms like a girl pleading me not to turn the channel. He didn't want to miss the scene that was on, because he was hoping he(Spiderman) would kiss her(Xena Warrior Princess)... okay that's enough on that cuz it must be apparent by now that his lower dresser draw is full of boxes of tampons.
Classes are over for me now. It's very weird how fast this semester went by and looking back at the beginning of it compared to now and feeling all the yady yady yada. Only 2 finals remain, which are Calc on Monday and Chem on Friday. I feel like I'm doing better in my harder classes than my easier ones. In English I received an A on our final research paper that I started writing 1 hour before the day of class that it was due. In Chem and Calc, I don't do any hw and then I study the night before to receive a high C or B when the average grade is 50-60. But in my Health and GT1000, the teachers suck and I received I think a high C in Health and maybe a low A in GT1000(it better not be a B). My health tests are like chemo(spaced out and hard), while my calc tests are like radiation (frequent but easier).
Leading to my next topic (weird analogy and transition but I like it). I have something to look forward to this summer... not being lazy, not the lack of school, and not tanning my bodacious body... but rather being a CIT (Counselor in Training) this summer at Camp Sunshine. It's a camp for kids under 18 who have or have had cancer. My oncology nurses wanted me to do it last year, because they couldn't believe I was doing track with the combined effects of Vinblastine (damages nerve endings) and Bleomycin (scars the lungs). They thought my actions would be a great example for the kids. CIT's are the ones who assist the counselors and interact more directly with the kids. I would've done it last year, but I was receiving radiation treatment. I can't wait to be with a huge group of people who actually know what I went through and don't mind talking about it. During my treatment, I didn't really have anyone to relate to. My friends were a great support group, but most people have shied away from talking about cancer. Either people get quiet or change the subject because they think it must be uncomfortable and sad for me. At the hospital, there wasn't anyone either. Most of the kids were too young to realize what was going on. There was however Craig who was my age and I could chat with him when our treatments were scheduled at the same time. Unfortunately his case was 1 of about 9 cases in the world, and he died 3 months ago. He went to Camp Sunshine several times and loved it, so Camp Sunshine here I come.
