where am i?
Who are all these people walking around like zombies on speed? I hear yelling and cars are driving by with their horns screaming. There is a water fountain and a bunch of people are trying to cool themselves. The temperature keeps rising. It is now 35C (or 95F) and it is meant to go up […]

10 days left
And so it starts. The final countdown to what will hopefully be the end of my life as an undergraduate.
My first exam is tomorrow but my mind has already skipped to the end of this academic year. Even though I have a rough few days ahead of me I just need it to feel over. […]
lies on top of lies, mum is still doing okay though
It was not a Lipoma. It was a Meningioma. It was a tumour. It was a brain tumour far more dangerous than a Lipoma. It was causing her headaches, nauseas, lack of balance (which was a result of episodes of partial paralysis) and who knows what else.
The doctor said that had it been left untreated […]
update :: mum’s doing okay
I spoke with my father earlier. It turns out that he is a liar and quite a good one too. I always wondered where I got my skills from. Both him and my mum are good liars and so am I. When I was in school and I was caught doing something I shouldn’t I […]
what is the opposite of a mother’s day present?
I received some bad news last week. My mum has been having some very bad headaches lately. She has been taking pain killers but they would always come back. I have asked her, nay, begged her to go see a doctor. She never did. She kept saying she would but never actually arranged to go. […]
not dealing with my stress, aka the denial approach
Wait, what? I haven’t posted since Monday! It feels like it was just yesterday! How can it already be Friday. Okay, it’s only been Friday for like 4 hours but still. Almost a week has gone by and I have no idea where it went. I’ve spent every day between Uni, coursework and pretending I […]
10 hours, 4280 words, 2 print outs, 1 brain turned into jam
So, one minute I’m on the phone to my parents and I start to cry uncontrollably and 24 hours later my mum is here. I don’t want to say where my parents live but let’s just say they don’t live very near, in fact they live quite far. I was totally floored when she walked […]
a real mental breakdown
My stress levels have risen to a point I didn’t think I could reach. I just spent a few good minutes crying over the phone to my parents. It was involuntary. They were telling me to try and relax and that things will go okay and even if they don’t, it’s not the end of […]
driving in style and scared… family summer holidays 2007!
I’m having a few problems with my Internet connection and managing my time between friends, holidays and being on my computer. I am away from Brighton at my parents’ house and in a few hours we will all be leaving for a family holiday which we haven’t done in years. This is good and bad […]
