I haven't posted a serious blog in exactly two months. But let me tell you, if I had, you would be seriously bored.

So my last post was December 15, 2006. Daniel had a birthday (he turned 14) on the 17th of December, and Christmas was the 25th (well, duh). My mom, Daniel, Nisha and I went to my papa's house to celebrate Christmas with my aunts, cousins and some of Kay's (Kay is my papa's girlfriend) family.

For the New Year, we went to my moms friend Sherry's, brother's house. It was so boring and my mom got SO drunk. Around eleven o' clock I managed to talk my mom into leaving, and we went to my papa's house.

On January 5th, I started feeling sick. I week later I went to the doctor, and found out through a blood test that I had mono! I had it really, really bad. My throat was so swollen that I couldn't eat, and my head (yes, MY HEAD) was so swollen that it was squeezing my eardrums (or something) so I that it felt like I had a never ending earache. My ears hurt so bad that I had a really hard time sleeping. If you've ever had mono, you know that all you DO is sleep, so it was horrible. I would sleep for fifteen minutes and wake up because of my ears, and then I would turn my head and my neck would hurt. It would feel like I had just gotten major whiplash or something. The mono also affected my liver, so technically, I'm still in full blown mono right now. I feel pretty good on the outside, but if I press against my liver, it hurts slightly. And the horror of my liver being affected is that I can't eat greasy or SPICY foods!!!! I just about died when I heard that, because I adore spicy food. Of course, at that time I couldn't even eat anything so it didn't really matter, but still.

Because of the mono, I had to drop my winter class. So now I have a big, fat W on my transcripts. Since my bloodwork still isn't coming back normal, I have to take it easy. Unfortunately, I just started the spring semester, and let me tell you, my schedule is INSANELY CRAZY. I have four classes MWF and I made them so they are all seven minutes apart. I also made my schedule where I have to literally run from class to class, because they are all on opposite sides of the campus. And Stan State is pretty big.

Yesterday was my first day of classes, and I feel like crap today. If I don't take it easy, I could relapse and get much worse than I was. At least if I don't relapse, I'll be losing a lot of weight from all the running! Haha.

So pretty much since January 5th, I've been doing absolutely nothing. I went back to work last week, which was hectic. While I was gone, the schedules got screwed up and the paperwork was barely touched. I spent the whole first week fixing everything and catching up the paperwork.

So school! It's interesting. I'm taking LOGIC, CHEMISTRY, PUBLIC SPEAKING (ew), and ITALIAN. I am so, so, so excited about learning Italian. Yesterday, the professor walked right in the room and started rambling in Italian. At the end of the class, she talked in english, and told us that she will never again speak english because we won't learn italian that way. Which makes sense. It's a really awesome class, I can tell it's going to be lots of fun by the way she teaches it. She pretty much parades around the room talking nonsense, but I actually did learn a lot (for a first day) and left the class with a huge smile on my face. Come ti cheeami? Mi cheeamo Jessica. LOL. I don't know if i spelled that right.

Chemistry actually looks easy. The syllabus describes every chapter, and it seems like at least half of it I have already learned in the Chemistry class I took freshman year, and a quarter of it I learned in Enviromental Science last year. The class will probably go into more depth then what I have already learned, but it seems I have a good basis for succeeding.

Okay, no one is going to read all of this rambling about school, so I'm going to shut up now about that.

In other news: my mom bought me and her new queen sized beds with her taxes. I have had the same, twin sized bed since I was two, and it's kinda nasty now. My dad said he bought it for fifty dollars, so I guess it's not even a nice, old bed. I've slept on it for sixteen years, so I wouldn't know if it's a cheapy bed. It's all I've ever known! 

NISHA: Things with him and I aren't going so well right now. A couple of weeks after I got sick I found out about a huge, CONTINUOUS lie that he told, so things have been pretty rocky. He really needs to move out, as I need my space to get over it, and so I can learn to trust him again (if I can).

DANIEL: Brothers, geez. So annoying, but you gotta love them. He is doing a lot better in school now, which is good. Danny did get suspended for cussing out a substitute teacher a few weeks ago (hah, he is our mothers child), but at least he isn't in danger of working at Burger King for the rest of his life anymore. Gosh Burger King, how I totally do not miss thee. I can't believe it's been almost a year since I QUIT. Gah.

CHRIS: is doing well. He got a good job in Sunnyvale or something (?) that pays around seventeen dollars an hour (I think? lol).

I guess I've rambled all I can right now... I can't think of anything more to say. Let's pray I don't over-do myself and get mono again. No more W's!!! Hehe.

The OC is starting in a few minutes, so I have to hurry downstairs to watch it. I can't believe how entirely stupid the show has gotten. Since there are only two more episodes left, I feel obliged to watch it though.

Later!
