news

whether its good or bad everyone gets news on a daily basis. today i got a little bit of both. i will start with the bad news first...i found out that my grandpa's cancer is back and in a bunch of different places all over his body. the doctors are saying that they caught it in time so that they can do the treatments that they need to do and it will be gone. with any luck he will get through this round of treatment just like he did last time, so im keeping my fingers crossed. as for the good news...i get to stay home all by myself this weekend. i will finally get a weekend to myself to do whatever i want to do without constantly being under my parent's thumbs. not that im going to do anything that they would not approve of, but i need a break from my family. i mean, dont get me wrong, i love my family; however, i just need some time to myself. i didnt get to go away for college like almost everyone else my age because i was trying to save money so i always enjoy the little breaks that i get. i like waking up whenever i want (and not being woken up by yelling or someone talking loudly), and going to bed whenever i want...i essentially have to answer to no one all weekend. so, no matter what news you get (whether its good or bad) just face it head on and try to look at it with a positive perspective because the first step to a happy life is happy thoughts.
