Name that quote!
Okay, so, here's the deal.
I found out on Tuesday that my boyfriend of just over a year has a brain tumor.
Yeah, I know.
What happened was this: He had gone to the doctor over winter break to go back on his ADD medication. While he was there, he told his doctor that when he stands up, he frequently gets dizzy and has to wait a minute before his vision clears. Not that worried, they did some blood work and an MRI, just in case. Well, much to everyone's surprise, they found a tumor. Its made his brain swell so he's on medication to make that go down, and on Tuesday he's going for another MRI. Then on wednesday he's having a biopsy to find out if the tumor is malignant or benign, and if possible, they're going to go ahead and do some surgery to see if they can get some, if not all, of the tumor out. Fortunately, the tumor is in a part of the brain that usually heals quickly and normally, and the only thing it could affect is his basic motor skills, which can be re-learned through therapy if needed. No affecting his speech or movement or mental capacity, thank god.
So that's what we know right now. Its been a rough couple of days, and any thoughts/prayers/good vibes/whatever you can send our way would be much appreciated. I plan to keep blogging as much as I can, and I'll let you guys know what happens.
I don't mean to bring your days down or anything, sorry. I just thought you all should know in case I go missing or something.
Anyways, I hope you all have a great weekend, and I plan to see you next week.

Real fast
ZOMG! I have no time! EEK! And I had so much I wanted to talk about. Welll... I'll make a better post on my personal blog tomorrow. Or at least I'll attempt to.
Okay, so really fast, new news=
My dad now knows I have a girlfriend. He's cool with it. Which is good. Apparently he 'experimented' back in the day and I was like "oh... Oh... OH!" and yeah. It kind of freaked me out. But the point issss I've got another person down. Which also means that all my really close family knows. Woot.
I've been feeling kind of gross lately, but now I'm on a strict diet of happy music and good things. My faja says me being sick and such is just me missing Piph. That girl is making me sick. But my health is slowly getting better. I feel slightly more enclined to get up in the morning.
Except for the cold floor. ZOMG. It is sooo cold in the midwest. I have suddenly remembered why this is my least favorite holiday. Just a few more months right?
I can never decide if I want time to go fast or slow. Sometimes I'm screaming "Get me out of here, now!" but other times I'm like "Oh dear... I need to do something productive and fast or I will fall on my face." it's an interesting period of transition. :/ and I'm kind of nervous. Does every senior feel like this or am I just filled with more anxiety then the random 18 year old? I wouldn't doubt if I did. I stress waaaay too much. I should have made it a new years resolution to work on it. But I didn't.
How about mid- January resolutions instead? I will not stress as much.
Your turn girls
What would be your ideal wedding proposal?
okay... umm... I've never been a girl to think about my wedding. Never. Not even when I was a little kid. It always seemed so far away and foreign. Even now the subject doesn't hold much meaning to me. I mean, I love it when other people get married. But it seems years away from me. I think if it was done in a way that completely took me by surprise. That would be cute.

$293.06
^ My thankgodihavesomemoneytopayforinsurance paycheck.
imum wage is the best!
Anyhow, it's 2am and I'm listening to the Bloodhound Gang. I worked all day, then saw Bride Wars [it was so good!]. Which leads me to my question of the week:
What would be your ideal wedding proposal?
In the movie Anne Hathaway [my fashion soul mate] is proposed to via fortune cookie and it was adorable and I've always wanted to be proposed to that way. ;DDD
Bengi - mehh I'm so sorry about your loss, I saw on facebook... sending virtual love your way...
Melissa - WHERE THE HELL ARE YOU? :P
Lysky - happy birthday!!!! I'm singing a strange made up version of the birthday song to my computer right now...
Chelsea - hope your mom feels better!
Karen - uhhmmmmm I'm probably at least as indecisive as you, if not more, so follow your nonexistent heart?! or pick the school with the bigger library :]
Melissa -mehh both Melissas are absent. bummer. hope all's well.
Alright sooo currently, work is good, school is good, and I'm auditioning for The Fiddler on the Roof tomorrow! :D This is my first musical so I'm kind of nervous. I'm trying out for Tzietel, but I'd love to be in the chorus. Also, I might talk to the director about the student director position, because I love musicals and I really want to be involved in it this year, but my voice isn't exactly super strong and I haven't really been on stage in a while...
Besides that, I really want to try fencing, I don't know why but I do.
In other news, I got two new nail polishes, one is a Margo-esque dark red and the other is a shimmer dark blue. Nail polish makes me happy.
Also I'm reading The Jungle by Upton Sinclair. I wasn't sure how I would like it but it's actually quite interesting. After The Jungle I really want to read Angels and Demons because my friend described it to me and it sounds fantastic.
Alright well hope everyone has a great week! <3
