This is my last night at this house and it hasn't hit me yet - that I'm not coming back to ever sleep here again.

I have to say the weirdness of it all hasn't gotten to me yet. It couldn't be normal to have lived in a house for 17 years and not feel a bit of nostalgia? Well I do, a little bit, but not as much as I thought I would. I guess I have to ( Read more... )

Yesterday I met with the surgeon at UCLA Medical Center and turns out my Pectus Excavatum is a severe case.  Because my chest sunken in, my heart's been pushed to the left and I also have mild scoliosis in my backbone.  I was told the depth of a concave chest to be considered for surgery is a 4.2 (pectus severity index).  Mine is a 5.37.

Now I'm ( Read more... )

Moving day has finally been designated as this Sunday, January 25.  Funny thing is I'm moving in first and my parents will be moving in later, so I'm going to be living in an 8 bedroom, 5 bath all myself for the next couple weeks.  But I figured I was going to get a little spooked out by the echoing of the house along with just the fact I'm going ( Read more... )

Yes, I've been stressed to the max. (Warning: Long Entry)

1) I'm working everyday. I just started last Monday and it's been sort of hectic trying to get back into the swing of things. It's full-time work, but because of the new house (below), I'm not able to get much work done.  And I don't have time for anything else.

2) I'm overseeing the ( Read more... )

I fell asleep at 8:30pm last night and woke up at 1:15am. I got a good 5 hours of sleep. I brushed my teeth and washed my face. Is this getting ready for the day or getting ready to go to sleep again?? =/

We got the day we've all been praying for - the day of SUNSHINE.

So what if it only lasted until 6 o'clock or so? It was still several hours of sunshine and dryness that I got to bask in.

I was actually supposed to work today, but I didn't. I didn't do anything productive. Who wants to work when it's 40 degrees outside and raining like cats and dogs? Lucky ;)I have the option. Instead, I registered for classes and turns out to be a pretty heavy load, but I think I can handle it. Classes start on February 7- my birthday. Bummer ( Read more... )

It’s time to reflect on the past and present, drop the lighted ball, and take stock of what was and what wasn’t in 2004. What’s on tap for me next year? Moving for sure, working, a 20th birthday, hopefully a camping trip, trips to New York, and a possible surgery. However you choose to ring it in, and whatever you promise to do differently (or do ( Read more... )
