It's been some time since I've written here...School has kept me busy, and I've kept myself busy, trying to get in shape, swimming, running and what-not. I've lost about 7 pounds, just so you know. Anyway, I've been meaning to write in this again with school being over and all, but found reasons not to, then I was quite sick for the last couple of days. Meant to get back in the swing of things now, when I get the news today that my father has about two days to live. So I don't think I'll be writing a whole lot tonight, but wanted to just jot a few things down in note of this news. It's very bizarre to think I won't have a dad anymore. I was never particularly close to my father, but I loved him and will miss him. And I really don't like this waiting, especially since he doesn't know he's dying (I mean, he knows, I think, but he hasn't been told the full extent of his illness). Anyway, looks like it will be a depressing Christmas this year.
