SO. MUCH. SICKNESS.

Yep, it's that time of year again. That time of year where just about everyone you know has some sort of illness. Whether it be a little cold, the flu, or my personal least favorite: the tummy bug. It seems like everyone is coming down with something. Including my own family...Yes, we've had a bug come to our house. Luckily, it's not the dreaded tummy bug, but I've still had to deal with my mortal enemy: Vomit. Mostly, it's been fever, sore throat, runny nose, and coughing so much that it triggers the gag reflex thus creating vomit. I have to say that I've done absolutely amazing when dealing with it. I guess knowing that I can't catch it really helps. Anyway, my little sister is getting over it, but now my mom has it. Just the fever and sore throat though. Oh, and lots of muscle aches. I have no proof, but I have a feeling it's the flu. My little sister didn't get tested for it when she went to the doctor, however, she did get tested for strep throat which she didn't have. Their fevers are just too high to be a cold. I mean, a couple of days ago, my sister's temperature went up to 103.3 and today my mom's temp was up past 101. Either way, I'm preparing myself because I know that I'm next. My sister was pretty miserable the last couple of day and my mom is miserable today so I know I'm in for a rough couple of days. No, I haven't had any symptoms yet, but I've been around both of them for days and I've shared drinks with my mom so I know it's only a matter of time! Okay, you guys wish me luck!


Wait, one more thing! I hope everyone else out there dealing with sickness gets well soon!

Why I kept living even though I didn't want to...

Okay...I'm just going to go ahead and warn you that this is going to be a very emotional post so beware! I'm posting this in honor of Suicide Prevention Week and I'm hoping to spread awareness on this issue. I have a feeling that people might not look at me the same after they read all of this, but this is a part of my life story and I want to give others hope. I saw something on Facebook and I decided to share it then suddenly it hit me like a ton of bricks. I remembered all of those times I thought about or even attempted suicide and I started to think about all of the reasons why I wanted to keep living. The number 1 reason why I kept living was just thinking about the aftermath. I didn't want my mom or older sister to come into my room and find my lifeless body. I didn't want my little sister or nephew to ask where their "May-May" was. I didn't want my friends and family to wonder what else they could have possibly done to prevent this from hap...

Life's Difficult,but Beautiful.

Life is hard for everyone, but it has such beauty. Lately, I've been making a lot of mistakes like shattering a glass plate all over the kitchen floor and killing my mom's car battery while waiting in the parking lot. Sorry mom! Even when life's at it's ugliest, it's still beautiful. I know. It's hard to think like that. People are homeless. People are starving. People are being murdered. People are dying from cancer. It's horrible and sad, but life will always be beautiful. Your life. Her life. His life. All beautiful. I'm telling you this because I want you to realize it before it's too late. I don't want you to realize it when your family member is on their deathbed or someone you know goes missing. Enjoy every single moment with your friends and family. For every beautiful life cut short, live for them. For every beautiful life starving, feed them. For every beautiful life homeless, shelter them. For every beautiful life going t...
