I had a really rough winter... a really rough year actually but this winter break really opened my eyes and it's sad it took this to happen for me to realize some things... My mother ended up in the hospital. We all had pneumonia and I guess she took it the worst.
I'm extremely close to my mother and I'm pretty well versed in basic medical practices and terminology. I've had pneumonia before and I know how serious it can get it. I guess it was one of those times where knowing too much about something made it worse. I was horrified. When you come close to losing someone like that is really opens your eyes to how precious family is. And I was so sick I couldn't go outside to pick up my mail let alone take the train, subway, ferry and bus down to see her. I haven't seen her for well over a month and she was just over this past weekend with my little brother. I guess I planned to get work done but when she got here... it all flew out the window. And now, I'm trying to make up for the time lost. And this movie... my mind is blank right now.
My cat has decided when he wants to be fed he knocks everything off every flat surface... and this usually starts around 3am and lasts until I feed him at 7am. It's tough, I'm working off very little sleep.
As focused as I am on school I do still have obligations out of school to my family and even to my boyfriend... to a point. We've been together for almost 3 years so he understands the madness I go through every semester so I guess that's something.
