12/20/01 09:19 PM: Back to school

Today I finally returned back to school for a full day. However, I am faced with a problem now. Yesterday I thought I would be able to study enough to prepare for a Calculus test tommorow. However, due to that problem with my medication I ended up having to be at the ER yesterday for a few hours while they did a test on the sores in my mouth to see if it was indeed a reaction to the medicine or a bacterial infection. Anyway, that seriously cut down on my study time. My Calc teacher asked if I would be ready for the test on Friday, and I had said yes. However, tonight while I was studying I realized I really won’t be ready. I had missed about half of the unit (It was a four day unit, I missed 2 of them, the first day and the review day). I really don’t want to have to ask for an extension, but I know I will do awful if I take it. Its so hard for me to admit that I can’t do it, because then I feel like I am being lazy or stupid or something. I mean, it’s hard for me to explain to people how I have been really sick lately and how I had more and more complications and everything. Oh well, I’m sure he will be understanding, I just hope he doesn’t think I am being a slacker or something, because I am certainly not.

Tommorow is my birthday. I don’t know if I want to be 18. After being sick lately, I certainly don’t feel like I’m ready to be an “adult.”

I added a search engine to the archives section. It’s pretty neat, check it out.
