One week of school left and the year is over. I will have completed all of the prereqs for med-school with straight A's.
I am doing pretty good. The one thing I would say is that I have been distracted by real life issues, which sometimes can hamper my ability to study. I just wanna get through this week and next so I can relax for a few days before I start studying for the MCAT. Ah... haha, seriously, maybe a little relaxing... but most likely will start studying immediately!

Loving my post from two posts down about the lady friend. Yes, it is still unfolding... I have laid back, and have let her go pretty much. I find it interesting how much attention girls want even when they are NOT interested in a romantic relationship...
It's like... come on, seriously... I am not 18 and I am not interested in games or attention seekers...
So, everything else is good... Lost is on tonight, my sister is in town, and I am absolutely slammmmed with homework... which I will now get back too before I have a mental breakdown.
:)
It is awesome to be sober today! Awesome I tell ya!

PS: WTF, my sponsor won't call me back. (not normal for him)

What what!?
I am a LOST HERO onboard BATTLESTAR GALACTICA! Lol, ok... just kidding. I love those shows though. I am dissapointed that BSG is over now... they found earth, but the ending to the series seemed kinda off... almost like it was not that great of an ending. I was hoping for better anywhooo.
So. Not much new with me really. I am really getting into school lately. I am way more active on campus than I have ever been in the past. Today I joined one society based on my major... pretty cool actually. We are going to the local Medical School for a visit here on the 10th of April... so that should be cool.
Relationship wise, no complaints today. I really have very little drama to complain about. Oh wait, nope... found one. My mom. My brother called today and said he thinks that she is an alcoholic like me.... and for him to say that is pretty big. Appearently she swore off the booze about a week ago, claiming to be a whole 3 days sober and a new person. I mentioned AA, she kindly declined... said she could do it herself. My brother took his daughter over to see her for lunch the next day... my mom says to the waiter "Do you have any decaf, unsweet, green tea??" Waiter says "no, we have some ice tea though..." My mom says "In that case, how about a glass of wine?" 3 glasses later... you get the picture.
So... I am not really all that affected by this, but it is annoying, and a source for fear and anxiety to crop up.... but not much, I immediately ask for these fears to be removed and pray about it. It seems to work for me... imagine that. It works if you work it!
Peace out

Thomas Jefferson and John Adams, two great friends during revolutionary times, had a slight falling during Adams term as President... Adams and Jefferson did not speak but once while Adams was President and Jefferson was Vice President. They did rekindle their friendship later in life, and got passed old agrievences.
The last thing Jefferson's hand wrote to John Adams, rather how he closes his letter to Adams:
Oct. 12 1983
"Beseeching you then not to suffer your mind to be disquieted by this wicked attempt to poison it's peace, and praying you to throw it by, among the things which have never happened, I add sincere assurances of my unabated, and constant attachment, friendship and respect."
Awesome qoute...! Man those guys could really write!

What it means to be a friend
It means not to be deceitful, it means to not ignore them, it means to just show up once in a while. It means to not be hateful... it does not mean to completely disappear. It means to be sincere and to not be selfish. It means not to reject them. That is what it means to me...
When people act negatively in this regard, I usually take it in passing.. but when a friend suddenly acts differently... and treats you as if you are some other Joe... that hurts. That hurts my feelings. It makes me feel rejected. It hurts. Let me say it again, and let me emphasize the word "HURTS". That indicates pain, real emotional pain. It hurts... It hurts my very sole, or ego, whatever... friends don't suddenly act different towards their friends. If you do, and you don't tell them why, then you are hurting them! It is emotional pain... it hurts... It really does.... as occured in the past recently when I figured out after a while.. (I am dense) that I was being treated less then ideally.
So I looked at that, and decided to get over it. What do you do to get over it? The rejection of me by someone else is by no means an assult on my perona or person. It is merely that person making the decision that they no longer want to be in my life in that capacity. At first, that's not what it feels like! Naturally it has taken some time, but I feel like I am getting over the loss. That is what it is to me... a loss. I didn't make the choice, it was made for me and the actions made were clear indicators.
As I was saying. The rejection of me does not diminish me. I am still me! Some people do like me for me and do not have ANY expectations outside of me staying sober and present...
Random post tonight
Yall can figure it out, had to get it off my chest.
