I have a final tomorrow and on Friday.
Youth pool party on Friday.
Saturday and Sunday I need to pack.
Then I'll be home for a week and a half.

Mixed feelings on it. Alot is going on. Going home is always half-and-half. I get to see all my friends, visit old haunts, and whip up some new memories. On the other hand, one of my best friends is mad at me I've pretty much all but lost contact with another best friend, and my parents are so wound up it's been hard to talk to either of them recently.

My dad went to M.D. Anderson in Houston a few weeks ago. He's clear of cancer. Though, since Febuary he's lost and gained back about 50 pounds. We simply cannot get him to control his eating. Before I came back to Denton my mom's shins had been hurting. We chalked it up to 'shin splints'. Turns out she ruptured another disk, this time in her lower back. This means another surgery - and this one is again placed in such a position that the wrong turn could leave her paralyzed. The surgery however costs money. Not only for services offered but for the time off she'll need to fully recover. Not to mention, this is going to keep happening, and there's nothing anybody can do to stop it. It's simply a degenerative disease. It's a huge blow to my mom who has always been somewhat independant and more adventerous than anyone realizes. Not only that, but it's genetic......and it's more likely to be passed down to Females. She's stressed beyond all imagination. I won't be there for the surgery either. I'll be away at school. When I go home a good chunk of it will be spent helping her fix up her classroom.

School, (as I mentioned before) is nearly out. Then fall starts. I'm slightly excited about fall. My classes are going to be o-so-intresting. I've also found a few local places that I'd like to check out, not to mention...I now am the happy happy owner of two tennis rackets. Not to mention it'll also be nice to answer that question "so, what are you going to do afterwards" with a vague idea. I want to go to Grad school and be a librarian. Of course, I also want to try and do some photography on the side but we'll just have to see what life throws at me.

Speaking of life and it throwing stuff at me....
I've decided i'm going to take up the piano again. I'm more than likely going to bring my keyboard up from Laredo and I've been looking around for music schools in the area. Which, isn't all that hard seeing as Denton is the Jazz capital of Texas and thusly the area is fairly rich in music. There's some other things I'd like to take up - but for right now I'm going to pull a Zanzibar and keep it under wraps for awhile. It might not even happen.....but you never know.

Other than that, everything is as it has been this past age. Full of it's comings and goings.

Sounds fun.
I do like to keep my secrets, yesssss.
But as long as the secrets are secret-acts-of-relentless-self-improvement, that can't hurt anyone eh?

So sorry about your mom. That must be a terrible blow. I will pray for her.

I went to Laredo just the other day! I really liked it there.

And it makes me happy that you can answer the "so, what are you going to do afterwards" question. It is such a difficult question to answer.

Come ooon, I want to hear what you think about... uh... colonizing the ocean/other planets.
Also I want to know if... everyone in the whole world disappeared, would you drive the wrong way up one-way streets?
Also... what is your favorite type of cloud?
