Book Tag

I have been tagged! Here is the fifth sentence from the book nearest to me on pg. 123.

The rest of that ride is scattered bits and pieces of memory that come and go, most of it sounds and smells: MiGs roaring past overhead; staccatos of gunfire; a donkey braying nearby; the jingling of bells and mewling of sheep; gravel crushed under the truck's tires; a baby wailing in the dark; the stench of gasoline, vomit, and shit.

-The Kite Runner, Khaled Hosseini

Here are the five people whom I must I tag: October Rising, Michael, Calvin, Kengo Biddles, and A Crow's View.

April Fools?

Today was such a weird day for me. First of all, I was up really late last night. Then I actually woke up up to my alarm which has not happened since I started having insomnia. I got to school about an hour early so I could do some homework and last minute touch ups on my homework that was due for my first class. I turned in my homework and sat down. Next thing I heard was "Die Another Day" by Madonna. I quickly answered my phone (after singing along in my head for a little while).

On the phone was the BYU Catering Service. I thought that it was really weird for them to be calling me. I told them that I did not order anything. They told me that I had a care package that someone made for me. I started thinking, "Yeah right, April Fool's. Nobody ever does something like this for me or would even think to unless it is a prank." The reason I thought this was because Delilah works in a kitchen at BYU and I thought she set it up. They told me that I needed to pick it up before they closed at 6:30 pm. I could handle that. It was 9 am.

I went in about 3 pm and kept thinking to myself that it was an April Fools joke. I sat down and waited for the receptionist to get off the phone. She asked me if I had a pick up. I told her yes and then she brought out a lovely surprise for me. It was a goodie bag of treats, a drink, and bubbles (personally, I love bubbles and being able to play with those when I went outside made me really happy). It had a giant smiley face balloon and a note that said, "You are the greatest!" It was really sweet of whoever did this for me. I do not know who did it but if you read my blog, thanks! I really appreciate your random act of kindness because I have not been feeling too well lately and it really brightened my day. It is times like these that I am truly grateful for the friends that I have and the love they share with me.

PS I do have some suspicions of who sent me this but I am not going to call anyone out.

PPS Happy Birthday Caitlin!

Street Dance

-Step Up 2

This is the last dance in this movie and it is HOT! I absolutely love how they are dancing in the rain. I wish I could dance as well as they can.

PS Happy post #100! :)

Adventures in My Bowels! :)

I want to thank all of you for praying and probably fasting for me this past week. I think that your prayers and fasts helped a lot. Here is an update of what happened last week.

On the Friday before I posted about myself bleeding, I started to feel like crap. Pain was coming back, but it was not too bad. I sort of ignored it. Then on that Saturday, I still did not feel up to par. I was sleeping a lot (about 15 hours a night) and then take tons of naps during the day. I never felt like my old self. Then on Sunday, I started to excrete blood and it was not fun at all. I was in extreme pain and at some points I could barely move. That pretty much wraps up the event before my original post.

On Monday, I tried to get into the doctor's office, but I could not. There were no slots with other doctors and my doctor had surgery all that day. I went to school and did my best to be my happy self. It was kind of working, but people noticed that something was wrong. Then came Tuesday. I still could not get a doctor's appointment, but the good news was that I was able to get in on Wednesday. Tuesday was hell. I hurt so bad and I just wanted to rip out my intestines. Then Wednesday finally came! I went to the doctor and he gave me some new medications that are more intensive. There are also a lot more side-effects with these ones. One of them is insomnia, if you have not noticed from my random postings and facebooking times.

I am generally feeling much better, but I am still in a lot of pain. The doctor told me that I am having another flare up and it is on a worse level than the last one I had since I am bleeding. The bleeding has generally stopped. It only comes every now and then--it mostly depends on what I eat. My bowels basically have adventures everyday and I have to go on a ride with them. ;) Hopefully I will start to feel up to speed and go do what I normally do.

Thanks again for all of your prayers and fast! You guys are great! :)

Life is good... :)

PS Whenever I am sick or cannot go 80's Dancing, I crave it. I have been craving it since I started bleeding. That is probably why I posted tons of Madonna's music videos and One Night in Bangkok. I love the 80's...
