I'm still alive, just haven't been online a lot lately. Working a lot, burning out on it. Finished a full year of French this summer and got all As. Enjoying my month off but looking forward to classes and new weather in the fall. I'm especially happy about buying textbooks and being able to participate in classes.

I came home after work today with the worst stabbing pain in my stomach and after I woke up from my nap my parents were home. My mother has been at my grandma's house for two weeks now helping her after her surgery ( Read more... )

I just wrote a kick-ass essay AND I came in ten words under the limit.

Boo-ya mothafuckas.

Despite today being the first day in about seven weeks that I haven't felt ill in some way, well... damn. Okay I've been nauseous, nervy, and headachey all day. Nevermind ( Read more... )

Oh. And in other news my sore throat and constantly sore/cramping tongue is probably the result of bruising from coughing so goddamn much in the last month. Looking forward to a day when I can swallow/breathe/eat/talk without feeling like my vocal cord is going to rupture.

Reason #368 why living at home isn't so fun sometimes ( Read more... )
