Anna & Sophia

North Face

When i thought things could not get any worst.  It did.  I’m am officially sick.  A cold and a sore throat.  But i should have predicted it.  Sophia coughing at me, not getting enough sleep plus stress.  Everything does add up.

Still manage to get Sophia some warm clothing since it feels like winter outside already.  I got her a coat from Gap last year.  So this year i thought about getting her North Face since i know their down jacket are warm.  Can’t imagine her getting any sicker than right now. * Knock on wood*  I’m just confuse if she has gotten sick from going to school or is just the season of  germs.  But however she got sick, number one defense is keep her immune system strong and staying warm in the chilly weather.

No matter how bad the weather gets. I always get dress and drag my little butt to Starbucks for my daily dose of caffeine. I think just sitting here by myself. Have some noise to keep me companion but at the same time, being left alone. Not being bother. I really enjoy these time.

As Papa bear and i were driving yesterday. The topic of what am i living for came up. Then i told him. You live for us. You wake up everyday knowing you have work so you could support the family. The reason you are doing it because you love us and you want us to be taken care of.

Then i went home and started thinking. What am i living for?! I know i wake up everyday for Sophia. She needs me. But besides that. Somehow i feel so useless. Like i am not doing anything for the family. My daily activities used to be shopping. Really! How much could one buy. Or shall i say. How much money do i have for shopping.

I think that is one of the reason i apply for the course. I want to do something in life. Not sit on my ass the whole day and do nothing. Working would be beyond about money. I will feel more useful somehow. I guess, i hope.

This is what my mom would call. Too much time in hand. She would say. You don’t know how lucky you are. I always listen to my mom. But is she right this time?!

So i made it alive.  I did my studying.   Jam everything i could into my brain.  I am telling myself.  If i don’t pass.  At least i know i really tried my best.  I really did.

As for Sophia.  She is still sick.  She threw up the other night because she could not get her phlegm out.  She just ended up coughing till she threw up.  It was just horrible.  She was so frighten.  She screamed and cried.  There was nothing i could do to calm her down.  She didn’t even know what was happening because it was in the middle of the night.  I just felt so horrible inside.  There was nothing i could do to make her feel better.  I helped her wash off.  She quietly went back to sleep.  The next morning, i think she forgot what had happen.  Which was a good thing.

I am going to bring her to the doctor again.  Hopefully they have something better to say then i don’t know.

I love skin tone bras and underwears.  So when you wear white.  Your bra don’t show on the shirt.  But i never seem to find anything that is closes to my skin tone until i found this web site called myskin.com.  They have bra and underwear in different skin tone color.  I am so happy something thought of this. Now i am just working on which skin tone i am closes to.  I am either number 2 latte or 4 parfait.  Still thinking.

All you have to do is go to their web site.  Have them send you a color chart by mail.  I think is more accurate when they send you the chart then to print it out.  Different printer prints different color pigment.  So is best to have them send it to you.  Have fun!  Now you may wear white pants without showing your underwear.

Finally peace and quiet at home.  Sophia off to school, Papa bear off to work.  All by myself at home.  QUIET.  I don’t even want the sound of the T.V.  Ever since Sophia was brought home.  I knew peace and quiet doesn’t come by that often and is more like a treat to me.  But lately, i really really do appreciate quiet time.

I’m starting to think i picked the worst two month to apply for school.  Sophia’s been sick for the past two weeks.  Still coughing her lungs off.  The doctor said it can’t be a cold because it’s been too long.  She should be allergic to something.  But what !!!! That was my question, her answer of course.  Don’t know.  Which mean no sleep for 2 weeks and her tantrum gets worst.  My stress level is up the roof.  To top it off, my final is this weekend and nothing seem to be storing in my brain.  The more stressed out i am, the less likelihood i will remember anything that i study.

Although nobody is at home.  For some reason. I still feel stress.  Less stress but stress.  I really do feel like a bomb.  A ticking bomb….any second.  I am going to turn into a crazy lady.

Lately, i been dragging the time to bring Sophia back home.  I know i sound like the worst mother in the world.  But once she gets home.  She throws her tantrum any second, anywhere.   It is unpredictable and it drives me nut.  I know she doesn’t feel well, and if there’s anything i could do.  I really would.  My thing now is just stay calm and not do anything crazy.   I must add.  Breathing in and out does not work.

I have about couple of hours where i could sit at home by myself and study.  But i really just want to relax which i can’t.  How do people de-stress themselves at time like this.  Give me some pointer please.

This has been the longest weekend ever.  I took my mid-term for my Phlebotomy class.  Got a 82.  No matter how i study.  There are just certain things i could not remember.  Not to mention there were some tricky question.  Then to find out that i will be having my final next week.  That just drove me off the wall.  I know what you must be thinking.  What..Final already.  Yes is a very short program.  Just think about it.  9 weekends.  3 Certificate.  So you could imagine how tight the schedule is.  4 weekends on Phlebotomy, 2 in EKG and 2 for nurse assistant.

I must say.  They are jamming as much stuff into your brain as possible in a short amount of time.  6 hours per weekend seem long, but when you have to understand body function and blood vessel.  It is no where enough.  Even if you were to do most of the reading at home.  I feel like i’m reading another language.  Everything is in another term.

After taking this class.  I give credit to all the doctors out there.  If becoming a Phlebotomist is this hard to me already.  I can’t imagine what doctors have to study.  No wonder it takes about 8 years to become a doctor.  There should be a holiday to all doctors out there.  Ha! Ha!  But really, i do give credit to them.  They really do work hard.

This whole week.  My main focus will be studying on my final and taking care of Sophia.  Sophia is still not feeling well.  It’s been two weeks already.  I just don’t see any improvement.  Although she had gone to the doctor again.  They just gave her refills and even more medication.  I just wish she could get better soon.  She doesn’t sleep that well because she would cough herself awake.  That just makes everything worst.  All i could do is lots of hugs and kisses.

Military Wool Blend Coat $ 44.80

I actually went to Forever 21 yesterday.  I tried on this military wool blend coat.  It is so cute.  Definitely a must buy.  And the rest i thought it looks cute too.  As for the ruched chiffon pleat dress.  I cannot find it anywhere.  I might just end up ordering online.

It has finally caught up to me.  I must admit.  I have not been taking care of myself.  Not sleep, eating junk, more like lots of it.  Over doing everything.  My body are showing me signs that i need to start taking care of my body.  I woke up today feeling like i haven’t slept for daysssssssssss.  Just weak and tired.  Moving my arms were a work out for me.  Don’t know what has gotten over me.  I usually like to move around.   I’ll do something in the house, something, anything.  But today, i just felt like staying in bed.  I did push myself to go out.  I didn’t even bother with putting on my face. ( putting makeup )  That is when i know i am feeling shitty.  I went out and did not help at all.  I felt even worst.  I just ended up going home and finally took an hour nap.  I was so glad i did that.  I so needed that.

I do hope i have a better day tomorrow.  I will try  my best to do better tomorrow.  Better…… as in taking care of myself.  Because if i don’t.  I see something bad happening to me real soon.
