For those of you who have stopped by to just find nothing here, I am so sorry to have abandoned you like that. It's been a busy week with an important essay due and a test to take, but all of that is behind me now, and I've had thirteen hours of sleep since all the craziness ended because I was utterly exhausted from all the work and reading I had to do. It is such a relief, and I should be rocking the blogging world for the remainder of March or so, on all four of my blogs, so you can look forward to that just as I am looking forward to writing them and reading your comments.
As I was saying, getting all of that university stuff out of the way is such a relief. There's a certain lovely feeling you get with relief, the relief of being able to eat after hours food-deprived, when you finally conclude your conclusion of your essay or report, as you're reaching the end of that final downhill rollercoaster ride, and when the buzzer goes off and you win the basketball game by just one point. Relief is that satisfying, calming feeling you get right after you find out that the sky isn't actually falling.
I find that one thing for me that distinguishes a good friend from a great number of acquaintances, or a loving family member from a large number of relatives, is the number of times they provide me with that feeling of relief. Everytime I feel like I'm about to breakdown and submit to the pressures in life, my parents, my family, and my best friends are there to not just tell me that everything's going to be okay, but also explain why and how it will be okay.
It's impossible to be one-hundred percent independent, co-dependency is crucial for anyone who wants to survive. Since the New Year, I've noticed that I have gradually become less reflective and less mindful of myself as I've become more and more entrenched into my studies and the things I have to do. It's mostly because I just have a lot of things to do, that's all. It's simply a matter of not having enough hours in the day to find time to sit back and relax.
Ah, but now I get to do just that for a couple of weeks.
Boy, what a relief it really is.

Applying for college was one of the most stressful times of my life so I feel your pain. If you need any help or suggestions I'd be happy to answer them. I have to agree with you, without that moral support to help me through the rough patches in life, I wouldn't know what to do. The friendships we build in life are priceless. I also want to thank you for answering my question. Your blog looks awesome! To answer your question about my blood sugar being 106 and if that's bad, it's very good. Every diabetic has their own range of blood glucose levels they have to follow. For example, my doctor wants my blood sugar to stay around 70-150, but someone else might have to stay around 80-140. Any level above or below that is not good for me in particular. It just depends on that person's diabetes. It's an auto-immune disease so predicting how to treat it is like predicting the weather. Sometimes you're right and sometimes you're wrong. Thanks for reading my two blogs and helping me out. I hope you continue to read both and feel free to email me at anytime. O, another question, if receive a comment from someone on your blog, can you comment back on your own blog and they get it or not? thanks
Thanks 4 sharing ur thoughts on my blog.
I agree with you. Without the support and encouragements we have from our loved ones, I doubt that we'll ever have the feeling of relief. My family is always there 4 me when I'm all stressed out by some issues. I really treasure my family, just as I treasure my true friends. I think, life without any moral support would be the worst thing one could face.
You and me both. But I'm not sure if I'm relieved or not now.
Mister and I have a big brother and little sister relationship!
:D
But I do hope things are going well with you.
