Well, lets see...
This weekend was busy, to say the least. Michael was over from friday until monday. We finally made a visit to Ally's together, I always tell her that we'll both visit one day when he comes down to visit, but I never make the call.
Aky, Ben, my mother, and Sharo all have Pneumonia. It is bizarre that it hit everyone like this, it took four doctor's visits for them to notice that Aky had it. The final time my mom took her in, because Aky was taking painful tiny breaths, they took an x-ray and then declared that she had to be briefly hospitalized because her entire left lung was full. My poor Aky had to be given the antibiotic through an IV.
She's finally walking around the house again, I'd missed seeing her be lively. She'd been in bed for two weeks.
But yes...I'll get my school decisions back in the next few weeks. I hope that at least one of the schools accepted me. I may just have to give in and take the damn GED, even though I find it pointless. I have an Associate's Degree, *WHY* do I need to show proof of high school education?
I hate not being in school right now. I feel like my life has been pointlessly put on pause and that whatever force is supposed to restart it is either on vacation or broken beyond repair.
Where am I going to live in spring? Will I be in a dorm? Am I going to stay living there for the next 2-3 years, or will I come home when over breaks and the end of the semester? Either way, I'd rather know sooner then later. I like having all the information in my hands.
On a side note, I've begun reading the bible. For a number of different reasons really, first off the two years I got of Catholic school taught me little except to fear nuns and to color within the lines of the Jesus drawing. Another reason, the little I do know about it tends to make me hate it, and I would like to know precisely what it is I do not like.
I am very impressed by religion. I am very impressed that so many people have come to believe the things written and told in specific documents about how things should be. There are a number of things that I understand but don't actually see the reasons for, Human beings have needed religion so that they have a reason to keep going, so that they can use it as the answer to the mostly unanswerable questions. Also, I feel that it has been a crutch, you hand your responsibility over to it, and you feel better, often when you don't deserve to.
