So I haven't updated in a while. Been kinda busy with school, work, and play. School this year started off kinda slow. For some reason I'm just not motivated. I remember last semester when I would get upset at myself for getting anything less than an A, but this time around I don't mind just getting by. I have 2 jobs now. I'm working as a potwasher and a front desk clerk. It took me a job at the dishroom to realize how awesome my front desk job really was. The front desk job is getting kinda stressful though. I feel the need to perform because people are getting fired left and right. I can't afford to lose this job. I finally paid off all my debt to the school for this semesters tuition. I'm so proud of myself. I actually financed something on my own. I feel like a big boy now!!! I'm gonna be an adult soon! HAHAHA!!! Wow. Scary!!! HAHAHA!!! I've been practicing for a basketball tournament. $3000 for the winning team. I need the money now more than ever but I let myself go. I think I'm too fat to compete. Can't keep up a fast pace. I also found a "new friend"!!! Her name is Dana but she pronounces it as Donna. (I'm dating a girl who can't even spell her own name!) HAHAHA!!! JK!!! She's really smart (might be too smart for me), funny, really really ree-diculously gooodlooking, a humble servant of the Lord, BUT... she walks like Quasi Motto. It's been a while since I updated on my sister's condition but she is doing really well or at least she looks well. It almost seems like she doesn't have cancer. Once in a while she would feel depressed because of the medication but she's doing fine now that she started living up on campus and hanging out with her school friends. Her hair is starting to fall out and we joke about how she's starting to look like Smeegle from Lord of the Rings. Maybe I should be more sensitive but she jokes about it more than I do. She's getting a wig for her head anyways. I hope she gets a mullet. With chemo going as well as it is she will be completely healed in no time. Thanks for all your consistent prayers. And I just wanted to ask for you guys to please continue praying for my sister that she will be completely healed after treatment. Well I gotta go back to work now. We're expecting around 7000 people in and around our hotel today. The streets are so packed. There are motorcycles, cops, firetrucks, and horses everywhere. I guess a police officer was gunned down and he's having his funeral at the baseball field in our backyard. It might be on national TV. The cop was only in his mid 30's. Just makes you realize how short life is and how it's not guaranteed day by day. |
