so, even though it's only 1:30, i've already had a pretty interesting day. it's definitely been different, that's for sure. 

for starters, i actually had to wake up early this morning. i woke up at 7, then 7:30, and then finally at 8:15. i had to get dressed and eat and stuff because i had a doctor's appointment. so i did all of that and mom and i were on our way. not only was i going for an appointment, i was also switching doctors. yay! i've always disliked going to the one in town, even if it is closer, but now i don't have to go there. i can go to the same one that mom goes to. the doctors there will pray with you too. it's really amazing. so my reason for the doctor's appointment was to get birth control pills, but not for their typical use. it's just to regulate my cycle and hopefully my hormones. i'm hoping that maybe i won't go from sad to mad to happy in five minutes anymore. that would be freaking amazing. while i was there, my mom made me start getting the HPV shots. HPV is an STD that causes cervical cancer. the HPV shots prevent you from getting most strands of HPV, effectively preventing most cervical cancer. HPV is also really common, so mom was adamant that i start getting it, even though i'm not sexually active and don't plan on being sexually active until i'm married. just a personal choice. religion plays a role in that choice, as well as just thinking it through. i'd rather not have sex with too many people, and i only want to have sex with someone who's committed to me. *shrugs* but, it is MY personal decision, and i will stand by it. okay, done with random ranting. i also had to have blood work done to determine why i've been randomly dropping weight in the summer. last summer i dropped a good 15 lbs, and this summer i've dropped 10. i now weigh 140 lbs :) i'm really happy about that, and will flaunt my weight for everyone to see haha. so i had two experiences with needles today, which is never fun for me. i really dislike needles. i have a very irrational fear of them too, especially shots. i got through the blood work okay, just a little trepidation, but when it came time for the shot, i started to cry. then i got pissed off with myself for crying over a tiny little shot. my brain has issues. anyways, that was the doctor's office. i've just been chilling around the house since then. ate lunch, talked to Mexico, the usual. i'm going over to his place to spend the weekend with him again. it's his last weekend here...i plan on making the most of it. i'm worried about him leaving, but not overly worried. i know that we'll be absolutely fine. i'll get adjusted eventually. may take a few days ((weeks)), but i'll be fine. and he'll be back before i know it. so the reason today's more interesting than it seems is because i've been feeling happy. for the past few days, i've been all emotional and moody and sad and stuff, but today i've been good. there's nothing saying that i'm not going to be sad later on, but for now, i'm enjoying my happiness. :) kkay, well, i'm going to try to find something to occupy my time now.
