I usually don’t do this but even though I have only known this person for one semester at Texas State I can’t ask enough for you to read her blog and keep up-to-date about her condition and keep her in your prayers for her, her family’s, and everyone-she-has-met-so-far-in-her-life sake. Please & Thanks you.

Running

I went running tonight, this would be like day three in a row, and it just so happens that when I was going to time myself running 400m I ended up pull a muscle in my left leg. So now I’m sitting in my room with ice on it to try and numb it and keep some of the swelling down. Running injuries hurt and suck…

Already starting the day off at a good pace

Already from the first errand I have to run I get the day off to a good start. First off let me start by stating I’ve never fainted or even have come close to ever in my life. So let’s begin, on my way to an appointment to the hospital just so they can have a sample of my blood to make sure I’m progressing good enough to get off my meds. When I get to my appointment and they begin drawing blood I am full of joy as I’ve gotten use to the needles poking me after so long of always freaking out. But anyway, the first attempt to draw blood was a fail but the second attempt was excellent other than the fact that the collection tube for the blood had a bad suction on it so instead of pulling the needle out and letting my blood recirculate before I lose all oxygen to my left arm she decides to leave the needle in and think about what to do. Solution: she grabbed another collection tube that actually worked. Sad part is after the blood was collected I started to feel light headed and hot at the same time, something that almost never happens to me. As I proceed to tell the lab tech she starts to freak out as if I’m about to die and all I can think of is damn I need some sleep or some sugar cause I’m so out of it. After resting in another room I become normal once again and take my time getting home. On my way back home though I decide that I need sole energy (sugar) so I gave in and purchased a red bull energy drink. I have to say that for someone who is against energy drinks my first one wasn’t too bad but damn does it wake you up and make you focus on one thing, that being whatever is in front if you at the time. So yea that is my awesome morning, wonder how my day will end, hmmm?
