TOO LEGIT TOO LEGIT TO QUIT...

so this past week has been a complete blur....school started and my anxiety levels have been hitting the roof. it started wednesday at 7am 1010 intermediate algebra...oh my. preface...i haven't been to school in 2 years. and its taken lets see, 8 years to get my generals done, its pathetic, but its coming. so i went to bed early tuesday night around 930 just to make sure i wouldn't be tired....and before i know it i wake up look at my phone and guess what time it was....6:54...EEEEEEEEFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF. so i layed in bed trying to decide if i should go or just skip it. i decided to go. the class is only 50 minutes long and i walked in 20 minutes late looking like a million bucks. (you can only imagine). it wasn't so bad.
i raced home washed my hair, put on some make up and ran to work on time. AMAZINGLY. i did my math homework on my lunch break because im a good little student like that. After work i went to chemistry. I have been so worried about chemistry. my brain doesn't understand chemistry or biology and so thats why in my salt lake community college career i saved it for one of the last classes i needed. i was so early, so early. finally every came to class and the professor came in... oh my talk about science geek!. but its totally cool, because he is so "flighty" he cant remember what he's talking about. all of our tests and quizes are open book! HORRAY! this class is in the bag. hopefully everything will pan out, i'll get A's for both classes and then i'll be able to transfer to the U...

MONTY

My dad was diagnosed with Non Hodgkins Lymphoma July 23rd 2008. SCARY. Its cancer. Alot of people don't know what that means, I didn't know what that meant. It means CHEMO. It means loosing you hair, weight, and immune system. Chemo kills not only all the bad cancer cells in your body, but it kills all the good healthy ones too. That why they have to do chemo over a period of time. Its a dose of death. That's scary in and of its self. He can't be in crowds and can't be around peopl who have been around a lot of other people. So if I've been at work all day and want to go see him, I'd have to go take a shower before I could go over to his house. Which is no big deal to me, but it just sucks, the whole situation sucks. I have to keep reminding myself that people survive cancer everyday, and they live with it.
My dad started chemo last friday. He was there for 11 hours.....yep 11. We as a family got together the Monday before to celebrate my dad...this is our whole family. IT WAS A BLAST!!!
