Phase II begins.

And I so hope it's not a foreshadowing (boy, I have used that word so often today) of the months to come. It was crazy hectic, and I didn't even have crew this morning. Class, doctors, class, doctors lunch during class, checks deposited, lil reading time, class, jo-anns, dinner, shower, crash at 7:30. I even got up at 6:30 to make crepes for the first day of classes in order to get off to a good start. (probably didn'y help that I ate all of them.) So I have had a full day even though it was only syllabus day. Found out about 1-2 units I'll be needing more on top of the 18 I already have, and if it wasn't for crew I know I'd have no problem, but now I'm wondering if I should just not bother with bio like I had previously planned. I dont want too, because it's with Carla, but I dont know if I can handle that load that I have. Crew, other crew, work, school, so much mroe than I bargained for. I'll be at the school late, late, late for costume and make-up crewing and be getting up early, early, early for rowing crew. I dont even know what I am going to do with crew this semester, my knees seem to be getting worse, not better, and I got my results back today. No breaks, no arthritis, but a low platlet count. So I got another blood test (I'm getting better, but it still is not somethign I go to stress-free) today to see if it was just low that day, or if it's constantly low. If it's still low in this test, then they are going to 'refer me out.' Basically that means it's something the school can't handle and I have to see my own doctor and a hematologist to see what up and if it's whats causeing my knee pain. More than likly not whats causeing the pain, but that still means that we have a symptom but no cause and I'm not better nor worse than when I began. It seems as though this is going to be a longer process than what I though when I began. It's not a simple 'your broken' or 'your diseased' 'have some pills and PT,' so we'll see.

My costume class looks fun. Make-up too. And I am looking forward to swimming like no one's business. We'll see where the semester takes me, and I'm hopinh I'm not going to need my weekends as recoup time, but I fear they will be.
