So school had started, and I`m over at COPE...it`s a really good program, and I`m getting a lot done in my first course, Introducion to Sociology, Psychology and Anthropology. It`s very interesting, and I`m enjoying it a lot. I will be taking HIP (Life Resources), Eng 4U, Art and Living and Working with Children.

I`ve been looking for a job, and I`ve applied for 2, and had no response. I need to decide where I would like to work.

I`m really tired of everyone critising what I do and do not do. I do drugs because they make me forget for a little while everything that`s been bothering me. Everyone says I have no stress in my life, but my dad is pretty much dying from emphysema, and just got home from the hospital today, I am overwhelmed with various appointments, my brother plays his music until 11pm at full bass so it vibrates the entire house and the majority of my relationships aren`t going so well.

I`m not complaining about my life, I just want people to take a closer look before they judge. And is that really so much to ask? Apparently.

I`m trying the best that I can to deal with everything, and it really brings me down. My medications aren`t working and after a rough month I`ll be starting a new one called Wellbutrin, which is a pretty heavy drug and is also used to quit smoking, not that that is its intended use...

Anyways, I`ll write more later...,

Branded,
