It's not fair!!!!

2008 SUCKSSSSSSSSSSS. What the hell.....everything is going wrong. Nothing positive has happened. AHHHHHHH. I played tennis for the first time yeterday. Everything was fine...then I just twisted my stupid ankle. OMG....I have never had a more painful experience. I was sure I had broken it. I could walk on it a little at the time....my friends helped me to my car and offered to drive me home, but since I live close I told them to not worry about it. Once I got home, I couldn't walk to the door, so I had to call my cousin(who was at our house) to come and help me in. My mom, as usual, was freaking out. She has a hard time understanding that injuries are normal.

 
My right ankle was swollen and it had started to hurt a lot more. My dad wrapped it really tighly and then told me that I won't be able to play for a couple of weeks, maybe months....that's when I started crying.

I seriously don't know what to do with myself. I can't walk at all. I have been sitting on the couch watching tennis.....ughh. Man.....I'm so pisssed off. I AM SO DEPRESSED ;___________________;

Photoshop CS3

A friend of  mine came over last week when I was sick. He installed Photoshop CS3 on my computer, so I was able to draw a little bit while I was sick Nowadays I rarely find time for drawing. If I do get to draw, it's not because I have planned to do so....it just randomly happens....an unexplainable phenomena.

KEN!!~ I love Ken~

The Australian Open has also started!! I was watching while cleaning my room. Some good games~ More about that later!!

Reminiscing~

It's already the 12th of January!! Damn...this year is gonna pass by even quicker than the last. So far, 2008 hasn't been too bad. Even though I've been sick and my grandmother spent three weeks in the hospital....things are slowly getting better. Yesterday we brought my grandmother to our house. Everyone voted our house as the one with the least amount of stairs...so now she is here. She is in a lot of pain, which is expected, but she is doing fine~ Today we spent some time watching old VHS videos of the past. "Newyears 1988" was the one we watched first....I was three months old and my grandparents were visiting us in Sweden. It was really nice listening to their stories...about what I would do and who came and visited and how happy they were. Then we moved on to the photoalbums haha.....we've spent the day reminiscing.

Happy 2008!

Well....I'm beginning this entry with another "sorry for not writing is so long". Things have been so crazy over here. Last Monday, my grandmother had her open heart surgery. The doctors said that everything went well. She has been in a lot of pain....she keeps on telling me that if she knew how much it was gonna hurt afterwards, she wouldn't have gone through with it......ughhhhh grandmothers! So we didn't really celebrate Christmas......we don't even have a tree in my house....in Armenian culture....if a close relative dies, you don't put up your Christmas tree and decorations. This year my grandfather died....so no Christmas tree....i don't really care....it didn't feel like Christmas anyways. Then on Sunday, I went to my family friend's house....and I began to feel weird. Came home and found that that I had a fever. So I've been in my bed. My mom and all of her sisters were at the hospital yesterday for New Years.....my dad, sister and I were at home....then my cousin called and said that the rest of the family was gathered at his house. So my dad asked me if I would like to go....I really didn't, cause I felt like crap, but 1. I didn't want to spend New Years alone and 2. I didn't want my dad and sister to be bored. So I wore like five layers of clothing....and we were off. I spent the entire time on their couch. My cousins are so awesome though....they were trying to cheer me up the entire time.....they were taking shots or vodka...mixed with something(I dunno what...) and they made me keep score of who took the most...I love them so much~ One of my cousin's thought I looked thirsty, so he brought me a small glass of "water".....turned out it was vodka instead.....what an ass (still love him though~)

When we left their house, I had a fever again....so when I got home, I took some Nyquil and went to bed. In the morning I was feeling so so.... Right now its 9:13 pm.....im in my bed...using my sister's laptop....I have been in bed the entire day....my body is aching....head is aching....throat was hurting, but not anymore....I have to get better.....This winter break sucks. I haven't done anything fun....nothing. I still have to go and send out presents and I haven't even sent some  Christmas cards to my relatives yet....Armenian's don't celebrate the 25th though....so I guess it's alright~

 I want to say THANK YOU to all of you for your kind words....I hope that you all have had a wonderful Christmas and New Years.....May 2008 be a year filled with health, wealth, and happiness for you all!
