Schools done, hooray! Now i just have to finish my correspondence course and i get on with my life. I've applied for school in the fall, though im having complications with OSAP as apparently the place isnt eligible for it or something....time to try and hit up the family. EIther that or i need a plan B....need to think about that, because there is NO WAY IN HELL i'm taking a year off. I'd rather die.
Had to come home all of a sudden this weekend. My grandfather had his spleen and his stomach removed because they were full of cancer, so now he has to be fed through a tube and sit miserably inside a dark room in a hospital. Honestly, in his position, i'd rather have just been put to rest instead of being a vegetable really. My family in BC flew in thursday night, and i was supposed to meet them at the airport, which i did, but we couldnt find each other, so i ended up having to call my dad to come get me. My mom drove down south also. Was in the hospital for a couple hours today, it was so horrible. He's so feeble, and skinny, and he's losing his mind. Has a bad attitude, he knows it over. It's sad. He is an old man though, 82, so i guess its to be expected this happens sooner or later. The doctors says he has 6 weeks....but for some reason i dont even think it will be that long, hes in such poor condition.
Today was the first time in about 12 years though my aunt, my mom and I have all been toghether, so it was quite nice, even as much as i cant stand my mother at times, she is still my mother, and have learned to get past things shes done in the past and just move on. No point in staying angry forever, doesnt accomplish anything, just makes things difficult.
Have to be up bright and early to go to the hospital again to say my final goodbyes before i head home....probably the last time ill see him. Though i dont see any reason to be upset and make a big deal about because lets face it, hes old, and its going to happen sooner or later. I guess its just time!
Pride week is coming up, i get stuck working during the entire thing. Great....but i dont really see the need to party excessively anyhow, so i guess it all works out.
Must be off to bed now, early morning
