what's everyone been upto?

Hey guys, i hope everyone's ok. i feel like i should come on here more often but i dont know where the time goes!

ive finished college for the summer woop had an exam today but that went ok. i had an MRI last week and im having an echo in a few weeks. life's been pretty busy so im sorry i havent got around to coming on here as often as id like.

today my town's all over the news because our waters contaminated with a stomach bug so we cant drink any tap water unless we boil it first. its becoming very inconvenient! boiling the kettle just to brush your teeth etc they dont know how long were going to have to do it for or where the bacteria came from. all the shops are rationing bottles of water, the town's full of people walking around with bottled water! lol

anywayyy id better be off, hope you're all doing dandy

Hey

The water thing ended after 10 days. 15 people got ill.

My MRI went fine, although i got sent an appointment for another one before getting my results which made me slightly anxious, turns out the hospital made a mistake. They said things are fine but i dont know the details until i have my appt with my cardiologist in a couple of weeks.
I had an echo on monday, i was in and out in 5 mins im thinking that must be some kind of record!! the lady doing it seemed to think things were fine but ill find out at my cardiology appt.

i went camping last week, it was really hot, between 25 and 30degrees or more everyday (that's hot for England!) i had fun, apart from getting burnt.
Things are changing in my love life atm but not sure how its all going to pan out so we'll see.

I go back to college in a few weeks, havent done any of the work i should of done so i should think about starting it soon really!

how's everyone? hope you're all dandy!

Same here. College starts for me on Wednesday. I am taking Sociology 101. And cannot wait. PLUS- I am still in high school and right now for those classes I am taking Algebra 2 and Psychology 101. I am really happy because I finally got to go back to my public school so I can see all of my friends! It's so nice not being on homeschool, although I do miss it a tad because a lot of the time that I had made time for me so I could get on here!

Hi! It's been a while since I last visited here. This year has been quite hard for me, I broke my leg, discolated my shoulder worse than before and waited to meet a surgery just to hear that they can't do anything.. And a school and a job take a lot of time. But I've missed you all.
