[[017]]
I've gotten particularly bad about updating this thing, been busy getting myself all caught up on missed assignments, rehearsals and then the last play and then putting together audition pieces for myself and Lillia for the auditions for the musical, finishing up with the pledge initiations for Zeta as well as having a bit of QT with Santiago outside of a hospital setting, which has been very nice and much needed.
And it's Spring Break and while my other half gets himself caught up on his missed schoolwork, this kitten is going to give him the time and space to do that, well, a few days to do so anyhow cause lets face it, I'm bad at the being apart thing but sometimes it's necessary. So I'm headed to Palm Springs for a little R&R at the Miramonte Resort & Spa with my hero girl Mary. And Aaron, I promise to have her back by Thursday morning at the very latest all rested and mellow. I'd like to drag all my girls along as well, so if you ladies would like, open invite, on me. Crys, I know it's not tree planting, but there is mudbaths and such, you know you wanna! Lilli, you can mope over the boy and get a massage at the same time, enough emo cupcake baking, come have fuuuun! You know I have ways of making you... Lana, you around or have you gone home to visit your mom? If you're around, call me and pack!
Santi baby, you gonna miss me? (If I don't text you every ten minutes and drive you bonkers that is...)
stuff to pack:
* Bikini
* SPF 30 sunscreen
* ipod (add newly acquired music)
* comfy summer weather clothes
* meds and suppliments and all that not so fun stuff
Time to pack and all that, anyone needing to reach me, I'll have my cell as always.

[[016]] Think of a wonderful thought Now think of the happiest things It's the same as having wings
Been awhile since I've updated this thing, as Santiago mentioned I'm home, I've been home a little over a week and a half now but haven't yet returned to my normal schedule, but that will be changing soon I hope.
Santiago's mom has been in town and looking after me, it's really nice. I know a lot of girls aren't really keen on spending time with their boyfriend's moms, but Beth makes me feel like I'm one of her very own kids and it's just... really really nice. I miss my mother, I will always miss my mom, but I do view Beth Duffy as my mom. I don't think my mom would mind that, I think mom and Beth would have really liked each other and I'm sure mom would be happy to know I now have that female presence in my life filling that empty space left when she died. Dallas came for a couple days and we played sleep over, I'm not sure how enjoyable the camping out on the floor was was for her, but she kept on a brave smile and we did have fun online shopping, she kept navigating the browser to wedding dress websites, cheeky that one. She could only stay a couple days, work and all that fun grown up stuff. Though we text back and forth like nutters, so yes, Dallas is totally like the sister I never had and always wanted, which again, is awesome.
Where Beth leaves off, Santiago takes over. My boyfriend is amazing and I don't know what I ever did to get so lucky to have had such a truly selfless and wonderful man love me and take care of me the way that Santiago does, but I know I'm a very lucky kitten. I think I'll keep him. XD
I know I don't usually openly talk about my family life in this journal, most of me stays under lock and key because I spent so much time worrying what others would really think of me if they knew about the Tinka Andrews pre WDU. But with what I've been going through health wise these past few months, well, there really is no use in hiding it in private or filtered entries.
I might have Cancer, again. I filtered a post when I was in the hospital to my closest friends, but again, what's the point of hiding things anymore? I had Leukemia twice while growing up, the last time when I was sixteen and Dylan donated his bone marrow to save me. I've been in remission since age seventeen, however, there is that possibility that the Cancer has returned again. I've gone through so many tests and now it's just a matter of playing the waiting game, which I hate.
First major test result came in last weekend and was clear, we're just waiting on results from the bone marrow biopsy now, which could come any day now or another week depending. Send positive vibes, I could use them. It's all a bit overwhelming and my immune system is pretty jacked up at the moment as well, which is why I'm not yet back to my full schedule. All of my instructors have been very supportive as well as the university administration. All lectures are being recorded and I'm keeping up with my class and homework, I've gone in after classes to take quizzes without a room full of people which right now are walking germ farms as far as my system is concerned.
The only major thing I've been showing up for is rehearsals for the play, which my presence is kinda necessary since this play is all about timing. Y'all should come and see it by the way, it's some funny shit, and who couldn't use a good laugh? Best medicine or so they say.
So yeah, there you have it, my life or something like it in a nutshell. How're y'all doing?

[[015]] Bored pixie is bored.
I have just finished watching Dr. Horrible for the fourth time tonight. I want to thank you Gus, it was so very sweet of you to think of me, giving me a little something that makes the little fangirl in me glee. You are a sweetheart, one day we should actually hang out and just get our geek on, seriously!
Santiago is asleep, bless his heart. That cot they brought in for him does not look so very comfy, yet he does not complain. He hasn't complained, even the first couple nights where he pretty much had to sleep in the God awful chair they have in here. The staff kept trying to get him to go home, giving their spiel about visiting hours and how I was in perfectly good hands and he'd hear none of it. They pretty much realized by day two it was a losing battle and gave up on saying anything. I think they brought the cot cause the nurse caught us cuddling in my bed, which I still say is perfectly big enough for us to share. It's bigger than his dorm bed for goodness sake!
I painted my fingernails today, they look pretty! Thank you Rory for bringing me the little care package of beauty products, you are awesome. 30 second nail polish is definitely one of the greatest inventions. It's amazing how something so simple can perk one's mood. I'm a girlie girl and hospital gowns and hospital lighting is no girl's friend. So to be able to have pretty pink fingernails makes me ridiculously happy.
I'm bored, can you tell? My meds have me a little wired at the moment. I always hate that about medications, they either knock you on your butt or they amp you up, and usually the opposite effect of what you're really needing. Like now, I would like to be sleeping like my boyfriend is at current. Unfair.

[special filter: Adam, Aurora, Dory, Jayne, Lana, Lillia, Mary, Peter, Santiago]
Some of you know, some of you don't, but I had cancer as a kid, twice. Leukemia to be more specific. Once when I was still really little, about six and the second time when I was a teenager. I survived, obviously and thankfully due to Dylan being a match and getting a bone marrow transplant. I've been effectively cancer free for the past four years, but they had said there was always a chance it could come back. And well... the doctors are concerned that it's happening now.
It might not be, in fact, I flatly refuse to believe that it is. Not now, I have fought too hard for my health and to live it and I am damn well determined to keep on living it. And if it has come back, well, I'll just kick it's ass for a third time. It's not going to win, if I wouldn't let it beat me at ages six and sixteen, I sure as hell am not allowing it at age twenty-one!
Anyhow, I just wanted to let you guys know the deal. I'm going to be fine. I am.
[/special filter]
I'm not sure if my less than graceful tumble to the ground has made it's way round campus, but I'm alive, not so well, but alive. I'm in the hospital and after five days, I'm going a bit stir crazy. Not sure when I'll be getting out, but I'm bugging the doctors every chance I get, so hopefully soon.

[[013]] And the sky is full of dreams, but you don't know how to fly..
My holiday break was nothing short of amazing. I don't think I've ever had such a wonderful holiday season since I was a tiny little pixie of a thing. Christmas with Santiago's family was incredible, I baked and helped make Christmas dinner! Which actually turned out really well thanks to Beth and her gentle methods of instruction. Lillia says she will teach me the fine art of cupcake making, this excites me.
New Years was spent in New York - dad was busy, as usual, but he was at least polite to Santiago in the few moments he spared to be around. He was busy getting Dylan all fired up to transfer out of WDU and was ultimately successful. For my own sanity's sake I decided not to get in the middle of it, Dylan is a big boy and I'm not his mother, hell, I'm barely a blip on his radar anymore. Maybe he'll thrive in an environment where he doesn't feel like I'm always around to keep him in check, I don't know. That aside, it was fantastic ringing in the year in my home town with the love of my life. Santiago truly is the best thing to come from 2008, I am looking forward to spending every possible moment with him in 2009 and beyond.
I've been feeling pretty rough since returning to school, pretty sure little Brooklyn, the four year old girl seated in front of me on the plane that was convinced I was a real live Barbie shared a little more with me than hugs and her Barbie dolls with me during the flight. I've been fighting whatever this is all week, which hasn't made adjusting to the new schedule the cake walk it usually is. Busy week has been busy and this girl is exhausted. If this doesn't run it's course by Monday I'm thinking a doctor's appointment is in my future.

I'm bored, like, episode one bored... it's Friday, I should not be left on my own to find something to entertain myself with.
I wonder how many times I can blast the Dr. Horrible soundtrack on repeat before the other girls break my door down and physically force me to stop... five and counting... Has everyone been kidnapped again?
