ANSWERS! WOO-HOO!

(this is cut-and-pasted from an email message so....you MAY be re-reading this...)


As you (probably) know, I've been having a really crappy last couple of months, but it looks like we FINALLY have some answers!!!


Since mid-October I've had wierd unexplainable pains in my lower right side, and doctors were getting no-where out here in the desert, we went to a pediatric GI in Loma Linda.


And he scheduled me for a EGD, and colonoscopy, (fiber-optic camera's up and down both ends woo-hoo.)


So- Full Story Time!!!




The day before (sunday) the colonoscopy and EGD (down my throat), I had to drink this stuff called "GoLightly" NO JOKE. so, uhm, in essence, it made me....go....lightly....yeah....sorry..... THAT was the worst part I think. It felt and tasted like watered-down snot. It was AWFUL.


I guess had an alllergic reaction to one of the three thingies they gave me for sedation (thats what they told me anyway when I FINALLY woke up), so I guess my face started turning red and I began to wake-up, which I kinda remember but not really, and coming-to took forever I guess, 2-3 hours, and we finally left at five pm once I could actually sit up without passing out. (But I GOTTA admit! The whole "going-under" thing was TR-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-PPY!) And actually "drink" some water not just from the saline IV they put me on, so after I flopped into a wheel chair and flipped into the car, we drove home and I went to bed. I woke up 15 minutes later, realizing that it was getting harder and harder to swallow, so I told my Mom and she brought me Benedryl and ice water.


I'm ok today, my lower-lip's a little swollen, and my throat is WAY sore (when I woke up during the EGD, and gagged pretty bad. Waking up was SOOO hard, everything was double and spinning it was bizzarre.


We don't get the FINAL results until Thursday, but for now the Dr. saw that I have "superficial ulcers". (BASICALLY, it means the stomach lining on my right side, has been completely eroded, near-tearing, so they are ALMOST ulcers.)


I thought only OLD people got ulcers??? Guess not, hahaha, so for now, no more spicy foods, and nothing fried. UGH.


but ooooooh well. better that they found it now rather than later right?

LIFE SUCKS.

why? well, a list sounds good, n'est pas?

• i'm still sick.
• they still don't know why.
• and because they still dont know why, i have to have a colonoscopy.

(in a jiff? they put me under, and stick a fiber optic lens up my ass. yeah. for real. yipee for me.)

• my dad's being let go.

so as of January 31st, unless he finds a job with health and dental, our insurance goes bye-bye.

• my mom has to get a job.

(she's applying at Wal-Mart, Sam's Club, Target, Costco, anywhere and everywhere. (but she mostly does office management type stuff like, a secretary or something, so i mean if you know anyone who needs a good secretary or someone to do paper work & stuff, she's got experience with pre-schools, law firms...)

• when my mom gets a job, if its during day time, grandma comes to live with us 5 of 7 days a week. and i LOVE my grandma DON'T GET ME WRONG, it's just, well, you know when i say something without thinking and its blunt and rude and i dont have a chance to think twice? that would be grammy j, ALL. DAY. LONG.
• when my mom gets a job, if its in the afternoon, i will be watching Philip Kate & Liz. so that Gramma J, bless her heart, won't have to live out here monday-friday.

But, silver lining right?
Liz's B-day party is on sunday, she will be 2.
and she's ADORABLE.

"CHEESE!"

my dad could find a really AWESOME job, my mom could get her ECD degree, and who knows? we might be fine.

oh well, that won't stop me from seeing the movie

the boy who plays jacob???? HOLY MOLEY. hot hot h-o-t HOT!
(not to mention the dude's (who plays edward) hair!!!!!

anywayssss

i'm here at home with ashley (my BESTIE) and we're hanging out and watching 13 Going On 30 and have OFFICIALLY decided we were born two decades too early!

so dancing to Love is a Battlefield like a "Maniac" is totally normal!!!

;]

Whats up? Someone just asked me whats up...welll.....

you really wanna know?


okay...

*deep breath*
i have been home sick for three straight weeks with some mystery illness that disguised itself as a cold before it went to my sinuses then my stomach and now i have this bizarre pain in my lower right side and it isnt apendicitis because they tested me for that i had to drink this incredibly NASTY tasting stuff and get a CT scan but the didnt find anything so they thought it was just that i was like backed up or something , so it turned i wasnt like i told the dr and the pain got worse and hurts WAAAAAYYY worse ( and now i need heavier pain meds but i don't know whats heavier than vicodin AND naproxen and is still legal and covered by the insurance that is probably at the deductible by now...) and i got all bloated and wierd on wednesday or thursday and my mom freaked out and took me to the ER but they didnt know what the @#%$ it is either so they said "maybe endometriosis or intenstinal issues" which doesnt help me for @#%$ because i cant treat either without confirmation and if its endometriosis and they dont catch it soon enough i'll most likely have to get surgery. but in the mean time (why not the nice time btw) i am out of school for another two WHOLE weeks AT LEAST maybe more depending on whether or not its endometriosis. and if it isnt either of those i dont know whats going to happen because i have NO idea where we'd go from there. AND on top of all that, because i will ahve been out 5 weeks, and was missing every other day and not making it entirely through the day before, i have OFFICIALLY lost my spot on colorguard and cannot try out for winterguard.
*another deep breath*

did ya get all that?

I REALLY REALLY REALLY Need.....

• a survey to do to post on MySpace or FaceBook or something else equally insipid.
• chocolate bar
• (i haven't had any sugar in three days sans uno fun-size Butterfinger.)
• ((P.S.- why are they called a fun-sized chocolate bar?? There is NOTHING fun about half-of-a-half-of-a-half-of-a-half-of-a chocolate bar.))
• somebody to talk to me. (WHOA> creepy moment, my phone just rang. a text from Kim, wierd.)
• stronger pain killers. (maybe some mass-murderers instead...wow, that was lame...I'm sorry...)
• a life outside my home.
• to be back in school. I've been out for three and am out for at the very least two more.
• to know what the hell is wrong with me,
• (its either endometriosis or some kind of intestinal garbage.)
• PEOPLE TO VISIT ME.
• (while everyone else was in line to receive tact from God I must-a been chasing some punk or something.)
• to stop making lists...WHO DOES THAT?
• someone to call me or beep me
• ♫♪ if ya wanna reach me / whenever you need me babay / call me beep me if you want to reach me! ♪♫

( I have officially decided to go by my hyphenated-accidental name P.S.)

In a nutshell...I need to haul ass.

I have been in bed for 2 weeks.

I have therefore missed 2 full weeks of school.
(actually i went to monday of the week before last, but left after 5th; and this past monday i came at lunch for pictures...)

This also means that I missed the first Competition, and Homecoming.

And 2 weeks worth of work.

Which means, Jason (CG Jason, not YL Jason) is undoubtebly PISSED...

Which means, I'll be an alternate forever unless I haul ass this week....

which means, I WILL HAUL-FREAKING-ASS THIS WEEK!!!

just thought ya'll'd like to know.

Oh, and i killed my phone...AGAIN.

apparantly, boiling hot sugar water (pre-Rock Candy), and my crappy cracked screen phone don't mix...and i guess you're not supposed to rinse it off either................................................ yeah, not my best moments....well, the chocolate works fine, i just need a new battery...how much are those anyway?

wellllll, i'm incurably bored so i'm gonna write..

TTYL!

Wow, long time...

since i blogg-ed, hahaha, i was getting bored surfing the web and went to see if my friends had blogged, and seeing as how one hadn't blogged since EARLY sept, and the other EAARRLY august, well, lol, i was pleasantly surprised!

i've been busy, REALLY busy. i've been sick, i keep getting this sinus infection (its like a head cold on steroids with someone trying to blow up a MASSIVE balloon inside your head.) AWFUL.
So when i go to get an X-ray of my head (which is massive ps, i never noticed that b4 lol), and we bring it to the Dr. at Urgent Care (cause my normal one is outta town i guess...), there's some sinus nastines., but that's not the horrible part.

i have 4 wisdom teeth that need to be pulled.

FOUR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

seriousy?????????????????????????????
AGGGGGGGGGHHHHH!

damn xrays.

so sometime my mom has to make that appointment....awwwwesssooommme.

on a slightly lighter note, i FINALLY found a phone that i REALLLLY want to save up for, its the Palm Centro in a navy blue color...or maybe the Blackberry Curve? i'll save up, then choose....

sooooo, life has kinda sucked lately, i've had this cold since last thursday, and on tuesday it turned into bronchitis. AWESOME. welll, i've run out of things to blab about...TTYL!

"and i'd like to conclude with the 5 greatest things in America.
1 Freedom,
2 Justice,
3 America,
and uh, whats that other one?
oh yeah..
4 Taco Bell. "

I MOVEDDD!!!!!!!!!!!!!

To an amazingly gorgeous house. Its massive and phenominal!!! i have one random red wall in my room and the only place you can see it really is from the foot of my (QUEEN) bed., so i put a collage up....its gorgeousness, non?

PS- new favorite verse.

High School?

So last tuesday I started my first of to be four years at LQHS.

My sheduelle makes my wednesday blocks kinda intollerable, ALL core classes.

thursdays will be a bit more fun, theater one core and then colorguard.

(which btw is TAKING OVER MY LIFE. shoulda listened to ma madre...)


my phone (the chocolate) has officially died. i even put it back in its box (like a burial? no, thats WAY too obsessive.)

so currently im using ol' reliable. although its more like old crappable.


im just rambling, this blog has no point in case you were wondering. (like they EVER do. HAH.)

so i FINALLY un locked noels music that she transfered onto my computer, and I LOVE the Wombats, Lily Allen, and Metro Station. oh, and Shiny Toy Guns. so funn!!!!!!!

i'm gonna start posting my book again tonight. nothin' else to do so what the heck.


uhhh......idk, somebody needs to text or message me something random. I'm SO bored.

Wow.....lame..

so i log into blogger. to post a new blog,,, about what i'm still not sure, but i have a comment from one jasonfred. he says "you know you love my jokes... did you hear the one about the energizer bunny? he was charged with battery."

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHH JASSSOOOONNNN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

hahahaha, but its true, i cant deny it. ever since moving out here, i LIVE for the groans.

they are just so cleansing hahaha.

...how did you find my blog anyway?
kim i guess....


hahha, so last night (friday) i have NOTHING to do. (because i have a feeling i'm spending too much time with some and others need sleep) i called kim (christian) and i go to the cafe. fun fun fun. i saw 16 candles with molly ringwald (ps- i LOVE john hughes. he's incredible. i SOOO missed my generation.) and LOVED it. "whats aHappenin' aHotstuff?" hahahahaha.
and we talked it was fun and chill. although i'm not sure i'll ever drink smoothies at a party ever again..... ;]

i really having a youth group and church that i can actually connect to. i never had a youth pastor who actually bothered to know me or care. (thats a lie, i had two. but one ended up having more drama attached to her than a soap opera, and the other moved to Ventura. cool. thanks Double.) i like it.


and now i have cheesecake, jason, kim, kim, and roxie!

how cool is that???

i think i'm starting to liek the desert a little more.

YESSSSS!!!!!!!!

AHAHAHAHAHA! I am DONE with summer school! I will NEVER EVER EVER do 2 semesters of summer school EVER again. I hated it. I hated the classes (geoggers and health). I hated the work (or lack there of in health's case). and ABOVE ALL I HATED the waking up early. And need i mention seeing the back to school commercials? I WASNT EVEN OUT YET!

uggggghhhhh, life bites. (i've been getting sick of the word sucks, so from now on its bites. trying to bring the 90's back ya know? NOT.)

today was soo slo-mo. church, panera (WOOHOO), home....and here i am. migraine and all.

i was texting allie but she got home and apparantly dropped off the face of the earth ;)

i was gonna go to camp this year but for some beaurocratic and idiotic idea im not allowed to go to high school camp. apparantly you have to be an entering sophmore. regardless of age. regardless of maturity. that BITES. esp. since my BFF ashley is ent'ing 10th and can't go 2 jr high camp. and apparantly even though i am registered at a high school and attended classes already and AM ent'ing freshman because i AM in high school.....i still cant go.

so do you know what my youth leaders offered me as an alternative? JUNIOR HIGH CAMP. WHAT THE *&@#??????? thats messed guys. real messed.

especially since i dont know anyone who's going other than a couple boys (who won't admit they know me in public...nice...) and the counselers. so i'm gonna spend ANOTHER summer camp hanging out with the counselers? YEAH RIGHT. been there done that, got the t-shirt and it (how do i use bites here? bited? bit?) sucked. of course since i happen to be the master of pasted smiles (when i choose to be of course...that much is relative to the situation) no1 noticed and assumed i wouldn't care.

THEY THOUGHT I WOULD ENJOY IT???????? WHAT THE 7734??????
if i'm going to hang out with the conselers, i am going to BE one. comprende? (however last year everyone there already thought i was a counseler so i am SURE i could pull it off if it became neccessary.)

but see, every time i try to bring up these points (but generally in a better mood) i get rolled eyes, "next year"s and all that crap. (KAC, JF....i mean YOU.) next year really doesnt do me or any other entering freshmens any good at all does it? and telling me "honestly you just need to get over it" what was THAT???? it wasnt HELPING.

am i too young for high school events? cause surely im not old enough if im not old enough for camp.

junior high camp is for entering 6th to entering 8th. it says so on the flyer.

high school camp is for entering 10th to exiting 12th. it says so on the flyer.


so my question is....WHERE DO THE FRESHMAN GO???????????????

soo sorry to rant and rave but i am SOOOO PISSED and SOOOO tired of explaining why i didnt leave for high school camp this morning. i had to ....(counting on fingers)-- 7 times to seperate people why i didnt. it's not like they would have known! ashleys grandma thought i was older than her today.


AGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


well, enough of my pissy-ness. i'm sure i'll find somthin else to talk about later.

M.F.S.W.

Favorite Song of the Week, it may seem a little lame but w/e it's not like i care what you think! this week, (July 9th- July 16th) is Nine In the Afternoon by Panic at the disco. I'll put up a YouTube video and the lyrics for w/e song it is on Wednesdays.....cool...

so this week have been pretty slow, 'cept my BFF from TEXAS IS COMING!!!!!!!!!! YAYYYYY!!!!!!! WOOHOO! lol, but i don't know when, she's supposed to call me when she either flys in or drives in....funnn......

i have the head football coach as my health teacher...WOW.... ok so hav u seen Mean Girls?

ok, i kid you not this is FOR REAL what he said.

"Don't do steroids. You WILL get caught. And you WILL go to jail."
(and a quote from Mean Girls- PE teacher to the students - "don't have sex. you WILL get pregnant and you WILL die.")

OH. MY. God. i was like looking all around me saying "Ok, did anyone else see that??" it was hilarious.

i need a book to read, anyone got any suggestions? im gonna make my mom take me to the library cause im so broke it ain't no joke. anyone need a babysitter?????????

Summer school

so life since tuesday has been pretty slow. 'cept on wednesday in geoggers (what i refer to geography now) we were learning about europe (and OMG dont even get me started on how ridiculous some of the country boundries names and politics are) and this kid behind me TJ and i were sharing funny sarcastic comments while the teacher was talking, and he said

"Why is Hungary so hungry? Why dont they just EAT SOMETHING?" so i said

"You know what tj? You're absolutley right! They should eat Turkey!"

yeah, i really did say that, and yeah i was fully aware of how lame it is. I told my youth pastor and he started laughing and he was like "seriously that's pretty funny. one day you'll be as funny as me!" and so what did i do?

i told him, "dont you mean punny" UGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HOW LAME!!!!! hahahahhahahahahha but it still makes me laugh so i guess its cool right? what some people dont realize is that i actually do ALWAYS think of the lame jokes but i choose the sarcastic ones cause its so much funnier.

ok, an example of how lame some jokes are but i'm so not as bad-
my youth pastor's driving me home cause i just finished babysitting for him, and its his new car right? so he's discovering all the little cool stuff that it does and as i'm getting out he asks

"Hey, sarah! When is a car not a car?"
"I don't know?"
"When it's a jar!"

and he points to the dashboard and the thing is blinking "DOOR AJAR"

uggggggggggggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, another example? in my "happy graduation card" he wrote (and i kid you not he REALLY does these things!)

"What happens when you take a long look around Paris?
You get an 'eye-full'! (Eiffel)"

WOOOOOWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW.........

ok, i'm done ranting about how incerdibly lame my youth pastors jokes are....laters!

So.... summer so far sucks....lame.

Geography....
why geography?
its boring.
no-one cares where Yugoslavia is. if we did, it wouldnt have such a retarded name and we'd have heard of it.
ugh, i'm supposed to be doing this canada project but i'm not finding many things to do IN canada.....shocker....

ARRRRRGGGGGHHHHHHHH! im soooo bored...

i started a book (writing)....i think i'm gonna start a new blog for it....

i got my books for the summer reading thingy....FINALLY.

I got "A Brave New World" by Aldous Huxley (British born and raised so it has to be good right? ;])
and "The Merchant of Venice" which i haven't touched because quite frankly Shakespeare intimidates me....GREATLY.

i think i'm gonna start a new blog for book reviews too......

i have nothing better to do after all......

Colorguard leaves me in pain.....but i got to take a rifle home YAY LQHS CG!!

i'm almost done with geoggerrs but i have to finish that gosh darned project so that my group people dont kill me....

which they shouldnt since i got left with all the work since one is "grounded" and the other supposedly cant do anything w/out my work.

life is so full of doorknobs.

maybe i'll be in a better mood tomorrow...HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! doubtful. oh well, off to another glorius project in which i'm slumped with all the work. crap-heads.

The End of Middle School. but not of FRIENDS.

Ok so, no lie, its been FOREVER since i've blogged.

so i'm thinking i'm gonna try and blog at least once a week to recap you know? so since the last time i blogged was uh mm...lets see *looks up* a long while ago...

so i'll recap the last 2 weeks of school yeah?

ok so we'll start off with the Promo Party.

as you may have guessed from the title of this blog, i am DONE with middle school! (and it only took 6 years! lol jk!!) i moved out here to this wasteland the week before 7th grade so JG was my middle school for 2 of 3 years, so it was a little sad, but more scary than anything but as you can read i am rambling.....


Promo Party
allie and sierra came over at 5 (ish) and we hung then got ready, by the time we were done we were almost an hour late, so with heavy eyeliner and mascara we showed up.
I wore this cute turquoise mexican style dress, sierra wore a really cute tie dyed type dress with leggings and allie wore shorts with a cute flowy top, to say we were all looking fabulous would be an understatement ;) !
but since allie didn't want to be caught in her eyeliner [(*thick British snob accent*) Grandma-ma simply would NOT have approved! *normal* but then again, i got a weird look from my dear padre so w/e! ]
she (allie) wanted her camera sierra went to the gate to get it. good times. i will forever remember her Grandma's look when allie said Hi and looked at her eyes ahahahaha...

we danced, allie and sierra went on the jumpers and we had great fun!
Then we saw "Kung Fu Panda" (ITS AMAZING GO SEE IT!!!!!!!! NOW.) it was so great! i was blinded by its awesomeness (and attractiveness ;o ) so good.

the next week was a whirlwind of information...Tuesday (6/10) we went to Six Flags OMG, it was so fun! Allie and sierra dont do big rides (though i had a deep sense of self-pride when they went on revolution!) so i hung out with steffy and natalie for the first half then at 3 45 ish i went and found allie and sierra.

thursday, promo and promo practice....
i sat next to some chick named idk but her last name was Green, she was SOOOOO annoying man!! ugh, and brodie hopps sat behind which normally i like him, he's pretty funny but at that point he was just being obnoxious....
when promo ended i got up and immediately looked for Sierra (SAD DAY) and i finally found her and she was with Rachel and started to cry, which made me cry and then Allie came so we just had a big group hug for like 5 minutes, all of us crying.

friday
we (usually, if i say we its either Ashley and I or Allie and I) (allie) spent the night at Sierra's but we seriously didnt get there til like 11. and sierra was really tired so she went to sleep (eventually) but allie and i stayed up 90% of the night and OMG she got histarical!!!! hahahahaha good times. so the next morning (friday) we were gonna go to school and ditch 7th/ 8th, but allie and i were exhausted, and sierra didnt want to miss 8th so allie and i did the selfish teenage thing and left sierra to go to school whilst allie and i walked to her house.

we mostly just lounged on her sofa (what the heck is the difference between a sofa and a couch anyway???) watching E! and sleeping. when her mom had to do some consulting we each took turns holding Isa while she slept....


so yah, last weeks of school.

Almost Out

>So...it's just another tuesday right?
NO!! School is almost o-u-t OUT! Only......*i can count the days on my fingers how exciting!!!* tomorrow, half of thursday (yearbook signing party how fun), friday, monday, (tues. we're at MAGIC MOUNTAIN baby!!!) wednesday and idk, a third of next thursday (promotion crap-ness) ? Then Friday the 13th but, really, I've already promoted to the *gasps* NINTH *lets out breath ;] * grade. can anyone say Frosch? fun fun funny fun fun!

I'm excited for summer sure, but who needs the heat? I think a nice day at 80-90 degrees is fine by me.

uggghhhhhhhhhh, i'm so sick of school. i feel like being childish and running screaming "No More Assigned Spaces, No more Books, and No More Teachers UGLY FACESS!!!!"


{for those who are not yet tuned to my sarcasm wave (ps- i am now realizing how often i use that word...how annoying....i shall have to make another one for it!) that was a joke......my how droll you all are...}

So.....now i'm bored and a little exhausted because of this nasty cold i think i caught from sam....i'm off to smaller and simpler things.

See Ya some other time,

Sarah
