* first off, an apology for my lack of consistent writing these past couple of months. things have certainly not been easy for me, to say the least, and i needed to take some time off to hang out with friends who helped me to remember that there is more to life than wallowing in your own self pity. that being said, i want to extend a giant thank you to everyone who has supported me and offered me words of encouragement this year. without your support, i'm not sure i would've made it. yeah, i fell into a deep depression which lasted well over 5 months, but i beat it, and i have my friends and family to tank for that.
* second, i just wanted to wish everyone a happy holiday, depending on whichever one you are choosing to celebrate. i am non-denominational, so i celebrate everyday the same way: by giving thanks for the blessing which is my life. hey, when you've been to the bottom of the rabbit hole and it doesnt kill you, you quickly realize you have a lot to be thankful for.
i mean, for crying out loud, who would've thought i would spend as much time in hospitals this year as i did? certainly not me. and while the reasons for my hospitalizations remain unknown (i'm not buying the story that i was having "manic episodes"), let's just say i've come to terms with all of it. it's not something that i ever had any control over, and if i did, i certainly did not know how to possess or use said control. in the end, it didnt kill me, but it has certainly made me stronger.
* we're nearing the end of the school year, with finals approaching next week. i have a couple of papers to write for my classes, and they WILL get done sooner than later. one is due in my political science class on monday and the others are due in my spanish class on wednesday. it's SO exciting to have completed my first semester since missing out on the spring semester because of my well chronicled problems.
i'm certainly looking forward to the spring semester, assuming i dont make a much contemplated move to florida. things are still up in the air with that decision, but i'll know more hopefully by the end of the year. i need to be reassured a little more that it WILL be te right decision, and that i wont be left out to dry if i make this move. i guess i only have time and patience to use as tools in making this decision. i am in no rush, and certainly this is something that could wait, if need be.
* i just wanted to jot some things down in between writing the aforementioned papers, so i have little else to share. i'm going out with my cousin nancy tonight to watch "due date". hopefully, it'll be good. the initial reviews say it's funny, but we'll determine just how funny it is indeed.
with that being said, i'm out, like trout...
