Check-Ups and Catch Ups (a lot of BEDSY days...Sun. May 13th, 2012)

It's me again. The flake.

So...here's the deal...I've been to two doctors in the past two weeks, one for my physical status, one for my mental status, and here's what they found out:

1). I have a type of benign vertigo that's caused by seasonal allergies (to test this, the doctor did all these tests to check my dizziness--which I didn't feel--only to tell me at the end that I did not, in fact, have a brain tumor. Well that's good). Basically, my sinuses get so irritated by whatever's in the air that fluid gets trapped behind my eardrums and makes my balance all wonky. So I have to take antihistamines and decongestants in order to unclog my ears. Apparently it's kind of a common thing. And it runs in my family. Thanks, mom...

2). I am a worrier. But there's no reason why I shouldn't be worrying, with all the stuff that's going on in my life right now. And I need more fun in my life. When my doctor asked me what I do for fun, I couldn't really answer her. It was kind of sad. But it's hard, you know, when your mom works all the time and you don't get out of school until 3:30 every day. And that doesn't even guarantee that you get to go home, though.

So, that's where I've been, stressing to the point of going crazy (or thinking I'm going crazy), being sick (in the body and in the mind...though slightly still in the body...). I don't know where I am as far as what day of BEDSY it is tomorrow (I'll figure it out before I post tomorrow).

Also, I had two AP tests last week that I had to study for. Those are kind of time suckers as well. I have one last AP test on Tuesday, then I'm pretty much done in those classes for the rest of the year. YAY!!

In the mean time, I'm going to try and keep my anxieties in check while finishing up my last month of high school. I promise I'll be better.

Days 'til graduation: 18

P.S. Happy Mother's Day to my wonderful mama and all the other moms of the world : )
