These are just a few things on my mind right now...
-My gastroenterologist discharged me on an 'as needed' basis instead of the every 3 week visits that invade my privacy. Or colon. For that I am thankful.
-12+ hours spent at the dream cruise. (Some spent driving the 71' Cuda, but mostly just watching). I am so much of a square that I did not race anyone or squeal the tires. Either because of my phobia of police or because the owner was in the seat right next to me.
-The fact that 99% of my friends are spread out all over the country now. I'm in a constant state of missing people. This was always the case, but now it's more than ever.
-I'm hoping to have a healthy year. No more getting sick and no more going to the hospital. I'm hoping everyone else has a healthy year. That's right. No getting sick or hospital visits, guys..
-The amazing people I met at Sarah's last Monday night and the amazing time I had.
-My graduation date. I could graduate as early as August 06' or as late as May 07'. So it'll pretty much depends on when I feel like paying off my student loans. Which ideally would be never.
-With graduation dates comes Grad School (which ones to apply to, should I apply to Med school?, the whole application process, and how I can't afford any of them)
-My cat is now 50% into renal failure. No telling on how long she has to live, but when you lose a pet that you've had most of your life it's like losing a best friend. Needless to say I'm a wreck.
-Bar hopping on Friday nght with Uncle Mike, Paul, Frankie and Patrick was way fun. I've never consumed so many non-alocholic beverages in such a few short hours. I've also never had to pee so much in such a few short hours.
-Everytime I eat something, I always worry if I'm going to get sick again. I find myself giving my food a pep talk before I put it in my mouth and saying things like "Alright burnt lasanga, I know I'm not supposed to eat tomato sauce, so please please don't make me sick" or "Hey Chocolate Ice Cream, I know I forgot my Levisin pills but I'm on a date right now and I would greatly appreciate it if you wouldn't give me the runs. Atleast not for a few more hours". If you think that's bad, I've even resorted to "Hey intestines, please stop with the spasms. You're makin me sick!"
-Awesome get-togethers like the Melting Pot with exquisite chocolate fondue and fantastic friends whom sadly, I rarely get to see now. I believe Tuesday night was the first time since commencement ALL of us were in the same room at the same time. It was great seeing you guys.
-The walks Sarah and I had every week. Unless it's chocolate, exercise is the way to my heart (not food). I am indeed, studying exercise physiology.
-Glen Lake/Glen Arbor times and of course missing the people I met on Glen Lake/Glen Arbor. And of course I miss my cousin, Jenn.
-The fact that I'm afraid to take the black pills the doctor prescribed to me to take as needed for the stomach cramping and spasms in my colon/intestines. Fortunately this phobia has only included the black pills. I guess if they were colored green or purple maybe they'd be ok with me.
-Moving in with Amanda Hosteter. Again. I'm quite excited. Our room will once again be equipped with a DVD/VCR player, couch, and now a blender to fulfill all our mixed drink fantasies. Visit visit visit. I cannot express that enough.
-I hate my failing colon/intestines. Infact I hate my whole GI tract.
-I love..... all of you (even though it's just Sarah reading)......And chocolate too.
