The sound of crickets

Sunday, January 3rd, 2010

Lately I’ve been hearing the sound of crickets around here. Where did everyone go? I thought that the domain giveaway would attract more visitors. Don’t people want a free domain? What is up with people these days.

I’m currently watching the show “Roseanne” from the 90’s. I’m cracking up. I love how this show makes you laugh even at the most critical moments, they always find something funny to say.

Anyways, rememberer those scans I’ve been promising? Well, here they are. 43 new paper scans. The scans are from all sorts of stuff I’ve been collecting, mostly old papers my mom found me.

I’m working on my new layout, an by surprise, I actually love it! ‘Ive been wanting to do something like this for a while. The new layout features angles and flowers.

I would love for you guys to check out my best friend, elena’s blog Breakable-Emotions. She just created today, I helped her out with the layout and Wordpress stuff.

Most likely I won’t be able to contribute a lot to the website due to midterms. I also need to finish 3 photography projects: taking pictures for 2 different assignments, developing the pictures, starting and finishing a stupid project that I was assigned to create a board game. In addition to my photography projects I have write part b of my Historical Investigation. I really despise the question I picked to prove, however, my teacher likes it and he told me other IB teachers at a conference liked the idea as well. The problem is I have to start and read books and actually investigate my topic. I love history but I really wish that he did not have to do this historical investigation.

Whats next? Giveaway!

I have an excuse to why my new layout and updates took so long. two Wednesdays ago my leg started to hurt when I touched it, it sort of looked like a pimple was emerging. The next evening I noticed that the area around the ‘pimple’ was extremely swollen and red not to mention I was walking like a penguin due to the pain. I showed my mom and she decided to take me to the emergency room since my doctor would not be in the office due to the Jewish Holiday. The Emergency Room doctor told me it was most likely to be a cut that was infected and so they treated the swollen area like a MRSA infection. The doctor prescribed be 2 different antibiotics. For the past week I’ve been forced to learn to swallow pills and other gross antibiotics.
A couple of days later I developed a fever blister around my lips, I’ve had this many times before that doesn’t make it any easier to deal with. My lips became swollen and I was talking funny, it went away quickly because I applied medication on it regularly. After my fever blister cleared up I woke up with a really itchy rash all over my body. My mom called by doctor but It was early on a Saturday morning so he was not in the office. I took another trip to the ER. This time the nurse took my vitals and told me she would put me on an IV. The second she told be that I automatically started to cry hysterically, I have a huge fear of needles not to mention pain. After they “calmed me down”, stuck the needle in my vain and gave me medicine for an allergic reaction I felt a lot better. It turns out that the rash was cause by an allergic reaction from the first antibiotics. I stayed home from school today because I got all red and itchy. Tomorrow I will return to school and hopefully things will get better.

If I grossed you out, I’m sorry. The updates are all scanned and I will post them soon. The new layout is simple and was put up because I could not stand to look at the other layout one more time.
