Fwee.
CheerfulUh... where to begin?... I guess I can start out by saying my girlfriend is out of the hospital. She essentially had a blood clot in her lung and a slight heart murmur, and was in the hospital for a week or so... but she's out now. Though I'm worried - they let her out as soon as they figured out she could breathe on her own without oxygen. While I'm more than happy she's out, I'm also kind of worried she may not have been ready... I dunno, I'm a worry wart.
Second thing. I'm really stressed. <_<;; My parents still dislike Ellen, I'm getting pissed, she's getting pissed, my parents are getting pissed, which causes me to get stressed/feel hopeless. To top it all off, my parents decided it'd be a BRILLIANT idea to put parental controls on my phone, rendering it completely useless. The only person I can call/text? Mom. No one else. Which makes it extremely difficult to get into contact with my friends. That, and I can't even get online - the only time I can get online is during 9:00 to 11:50, and that's during photography class. Once the term ends, there'll be no more of that. I mean, sure, I can call my friends... but I can barely use the phone, either. I would have gone to youth group last night, but me and my mom got into an argument. Again. Over differing opinions and beliefs.
To be honest, nothing... nothing happy has happened lately. I'm going to get eye surgery on the 21'st of December, effectively rendering my stretchy eyelids... not stretchy. My eyes will be poofy and swollen for at least two to three weeks, and bruised for a few days to a week. I know Levi's grandpa went through this before, according to him... and "he looked like a raccoon".
Not looking forward to that. XD That, and I don't like the idea of a knife/scalpel slicing away right in front of my eye. So, like, anyone wanna come with me to comfort me?
School's been all right. Getting decent grades, haven't been teased/messed with for a while, all that jazz. I should probably start looking in to college choices, since I'm already a junior... I know nothing, nor have I made any attempt to. That, and I need to find a job. XD
But, uh. That's about it. I'll update this again the next time something big happens.
