hello, old friend.
8:32 AM
her heels are high, her eyes are low, and maybe she doesn't know how to love;----hello, universe.
Okay, so updates.
update #1: my bloodtest results came back today.
Apparently I have mycoplasma (read: my-koh plaz-mah). Which, according to the doctor, is walking pneumonia. A healthy antibody ratio is, apparently, 1:40 but mine turned out to be 1:160 so that isn't good.
wonderful, Cara. Y'know, for once in your life, you could do with a little less drama.
so yeah. I'm not allowed any strenuous activity for the next few weeks. Had a maaajor tiff with my parents over whether or not I'll be allowed to exercise at all. They said no but I stuck to my guns and said yes, yes, I don't care, I cannot stay still, yes I'll take it slow; so eventually I got my way. The doctor says I'm only allowed verrrry light exercise though, and apparently I won't be able to hit my maximum stamina and symptoms of mycoplasma also include decreased stamina and depression so look out ahead, Cara, it's gonna be a ride.
albeit a very slow one.
but the worst part is: I can't take part in track nationals.
...you know what; I don't even want to talk about this any more.
I hate being the Almost Girl.
moving on.
update #2: the lotr concert was tres magnifique. I kid you not. I was bouncing up and down in my seat, especially during the elven songs and the Ride of the Rohirrim. Ethan Elessar and Luthien Inglorion're two awesome fans, yaw. every now and then we would lean over and whisper "...Anduril!" or "...Look, Lothlorien!" or, in my case-- "omigosh zomigosh look look LOOK Rivendell!" and then breathe a happy "...I love Rivendell." before sinking back into our seats.
I started wheezing halfway through the concert though, and I could feel my chest rattling, it was scary. Ethan hurry up and become a doctor so my mind'll be at ease.
...digressing. I loved the concert. I really did. It was worth every cent.
update #3: I'm leaving for teh beach holiday tomorrow!
and I'm not even packed. Ohmigosh. I haven't even packed my clothes yet.
or, in my mum's words: "Cara's theory about packing is to go there and buy a whole new wardrobe."
not. parents can be so mean. hmf.
Sooo anyway. I went to the library today and borrowed three books about faeries and one book about mermaids and one book about sweet sixteen, so I think I'm pretty set.
not expecting to meet any Austin/Tom/Alex so most of the time I think I'll be by the pool.
I can't wait.
update #4:
no, RJ, I am not a ditz by nature. I swear.
I miss the Clique. some people have been so awesome and honestly I don't know where I would be without them. You know who you are. I love you guys so much. thank you for helping me through all the crap and still keeping faith in me.
I'm in a weird mood now.
So much has changed and so much has happened and some of the stuff isn't so good.
But hey, no sad thoughts yeah? The sad stuff doesn't sell.
it's still summer so I won't complain.
g'bye, y'all. I won't be home for a while.
happy holidays, amigos.
