First post!

Hey everyone, and welcome to my first post!

I set this up as basically an online anonymous diary about my day-to-day life and the different things I feel and think. 

I'm a 17 year old girl, living in a small town where I don't quite fit in, in a state I can't stand. I can't wait to grow up and move away, and I'm very mature for my age (for the most part!). So yeah. That's basically me!

Just to start off with my first post, I'll just talk about today:

Because I'm homeschooled, I got to sleep in today. Normally I wake up bright and early and go to the gym after taking my little sister to school, but I slept in because I had a bad reaction after taking the Gardasil shot, and I have been extremely dizzy and feeling sick. The doctor says I can't drive or go to the gym, so I feel like I'm getting fat.

I'm normally really ambitious, so it drove me nuts to realize that I'll be missing out on doing my schoolwork this past week. I can't focus at all cause I'm so dizzy, and the doctor says all I should do is rest (in fact, I'm not supposed to be on the computer cause of blurry vision after the Gardasil vaccine, but ssshhh don't tell anyone ;-) ). 

Anyway, I basically watched TV all day, which I gotta admit, gets really boring after awhile, considering this is my third day being sick. 

I had to cancel SAT prep today too... which I can't say I was too upset about. My SAT tutor, who we will call Keith, is extremely boring. Yeah, he's a nice guy and all, but he makes MATH JOKES. It's so corny. I try to be polite and laugh along with him, but oh my. Two hours with him a week gets to be such a drag. 

Tomorrow I was supposed to see my therapist for EMDR therapy, which is for social harassment and threats I got during my freshman year of high school. EMDR has to do with tapping and involving body motions to help things that impact PTSD (post traumatic stress disorder) affect you less. I usually get tired and dizzy after EMDR, so the doctor said it wouldn't be a good idea for me to do EMDR until I'm feeling 100% better.

So yeah. That's my day in a nutshell! I'll post more tomorrow, but my vision is starting to get blurry again from being on the computer. 

Until next time,
