Today is the day that this beloved project is due.  Truthfully I was freaking out yesterday about this.  Until someone kindly told me that it wasn't due until today.  Then I was able to calm down a little bit.  But not very much, since I still had five chapters to read.  I had to work today.  It was just another plain old day at work.  Nothing special really.  Is that even classified as an actual sentence?  After work I came home, had a snack like usual, and then started on homework.  I read three chapters in this book and then i had to stop.  I was getting to the point where my eyes were hurting and I wasn't fully comprehending what I was reading.

Today was the grand day that everyone refers to as April fool's day.  To be honest today was the worst April fool's day.  Nothing exciting happened.  Nobody tried to pull a joke.  Not even an extremely lame one.  Someone played one on my dad.  But it wasn't that big of a joke.  We didn't have school today.  Which I thought was kind of funny.  Did they plan that just so they wouldn't have to worry about anyone playing any jokes?  Haha I doubt it but, can always dream right?

On Friday Tyler and I drove to Watertown to our grandma Marge's house.  After we got there we colored eggs.  We colored eggs with: our mom, aunt Brenda, uncle Aaron, and our cousin Jaide.  It was fun coloring the eggs and seeing them become all the different colors and designs from the magic crayon we used before dying them.  One of the eggs that I colored was my favorite.  It looked really cool (it's the purple, pink, and coral one in the close up picture).  My aunt had boiled eggs and made the whites colored.  I was kind of nervous to eat one; wondering if they would taste different.  It didn't taste any different than a usual deviled egg.  We also made a late night trip to Wal-mart.  That was tons of fun.  And went through Dairy Queen drive thru where my uncle did an Australian accent.  It was great.

Today I did the Cinnamon Challenge.  I was at the bowling alley talking to Dani, and just simply said that I've always wanted to try the cinnamon challenge.  Next thing I knew she had a spoon (a soup spoon none the less) and the container of cinnamon.  Then she put down some napkins on the counter.  And while all the older ladies were down on the lanes bowling, I did the challenge.  It was horrible. It burns SO bad. My dad was one of the first people i told after I finished cleaning up my face and attempting to get the taste out of my mouth.  All he said to me was: "DUH".  I also told Kayla and Camille.  Basically the first thing they said to me was: "You know you can die from that right?!"  Haha all in all I'm glad I did it so I know what it's like.  But I wouldn't recommend that anyone do it.

Today I finally finished my mosaic collage for art.  It look a long time to finish.  It was frustrating at times.  I don't think ill ever rip more pieces of paper for anything else in my life.  Thank goodness for music and people to keep me entertained while I worked on it.  And also Elmer's glue.  Everybody knows how entertaining it is to but glue on your hand and let it dry and then peel if off. :)  I'm glad to be done with this project. Even though it was kind of relaxing.  I wouldn't mind doing it again, but I wouldn't want to do something bigger than this.

Also when I hear that someones grandpa or loved on in general is in the hospital or having problems of any sort, I feel bad for them.  From the experiences I've had with my grandma.  Even though I know some people's situations can be worse.  I still never like hearing that something of any degree on 'not good' is happening to them.

That was the last time grandma was i the hospital for major reasons.  This happened my freshman year of high school.  It constantly reminds me to value life in general.  But also for the most part how special and important the people in my life are to me.

Words cannot describe how I would feel.

I just want people to be overall happy and pleased with their lives.

Because only once do we live.

It's great that even though she doesn't work overseas anymore shes's still been able to go back and visit.  The book was good overall and it is a great thing she is doing, bringing more awareness to the fact that things like this happen to people everyday.

It's good to read that even though she didn't get to go back east right away, she still got to work.

It's nice to read that she's making progress.  Also how so many people reached out to her which in result is helping her along the way.  It's crazy to read about all the life-changing, or life threatening things happened to her while she was just getting her career started.

It's good that she liked the next hospital she went to.  And learned to do more of the things that had been second nature before.  Also becoming accustomed to doing things by herself again.

It's understandable for how her parents couldn't want to let go of 'protecting' her again.  It's good that even though some didn't agree her doctor stood his ground saying she wasn't ready to leave yet.  What a relief yet bittersweet moment it must of been for her as she was leaving the hospital (Bethesda).
