Bonfire at Allison's house was kind of filled with bad luck last night. It was supposed to be something really fun before Alyssa left for her study abroad in Greece. Then, Allison and Alyssa ended up having to go with Jessica to take Ilene to the hospital. She was nauseous, running a high fever, had intense lower back pain, and was feeling tingling up and down her legs. After Ilene was admitted to the hospital, Allison and Alyssa came back. Allison (who is a nursing student) was in a state of rage at the treatment they had gotten at the hospital, which apparently involved leaving Ilene rolling in pain on the waiting room floor, for over an hour, after she had initially been examined and was waiting to be admitted. From what I heard today, they then pumped her full of antibiotics and sent her home. I hope she's doing better today because she had all of us worried.

I found out this morning that Kristi will not be living with the rest of us next year. She decided that moving back to Alabama would be best for her current mental state, while she's trying to figure out what to do with her future. She kind of had a breakdown after graduation, so I think that this is probably a good idea for her, even though we'll miss her. I'm guessing that Alie will be taking her place in the house next school year, instread of just moving in for the summer.

And now, today I keep thinking about my future and what I'm going to do. It seems that all the adults and even some of my friends keep talking about recently is how by this time next year I'll have graduated. And honestly, that prospect terrifies me. As to what I'm going to do after graduation, I have a plan or two, but I'm still terrified about things not working out. I should stop thinking about it because it's just making me more upset right now.

All of these combined factors have not made today particularly pleasant so far. I'm going to go try and find something to read or watch for distraction purposes.

I hope she's OK, hospitals are awful for that, they say it's not on a first come first serve but that's really how it is. :/

I feel the same way, especially about how I'm going to get a job when I'm done. *pats* I'm sure it might not be as bad as we think, just do your best.

I hope so, too. I'm going to try to get ahold of my friends to see how she's currently doing.

I hope that everything will be fine, but I can't help worrying about it anyways. I'll definitely keep trying hard though.

So here's the link to the fic I mentioned earlier. I thought it was good, but I might have a glass or two of wine the night I read it, so take it as you will. you used to be able to fall off the edge of the world, here

Also I found How to be Bad a fun read, with gen Jim and Uhura.

*shrug* Hope you find some distraction around.

Lol, thanks for the links! I haven't read any of them yet because I had to wait for my computer while I upgraded it to Windows 7. I shall read them soon though.

I hope your friend is okay! That's so awful to make her wait while she's obviously in a lot of pain.

I'm really nervous about graduation, too. I'm pretty sure I know what I want to do, but I'm not sure I'll actually be able to do it or if it's what I really want. *sigh*

From what I've heard, she seems to be doing somewhat better today.

Why does the real world have to be so scary? I want to keep hiding away at college.

:D? :D? :D?

I'm sorry you had such a shitty night. And Kristi! Is she okay!?

And yeaaah, I was at a reception party tonight and "future plans" was really all anyone wanted to talk about. It's kind of freaky.

Adam Lambert in sparkly zebra pants is definitely a suitable distraction. :D (Speaking of Adam Lambert, is it okay to buy tickets yet?)

I've communicated with Kristi on Facebook recently and she sounds like she's doing better. I think she'll be okay. She thinks that being near her family will help her right now. From what I understand, she also has better doctors down in Alabama.

It's getting to a point where I'm like "YES I KNOW I WILL BE GRADUATING NEXT YEAR. MUST WE KEEP TALKING ABOUT IT?" anytime the subject comes up.
