I suck at this tumblr thing...

I’m even worse at updating this than I was when I tried the whole ‘dear diary’ thing…

Anyway.

Today marks one year since my mum passed away. I’m not sure if I’m supposed to feel worse on anniversaries… It’s just a date after all, no? There are days I miss her terribly, there are days I barely think about her, and just because the calendar counts in days, weeks and months it doesn’t get any better. Or easier, depending on the day you ask me.
I just wonder where the time went. In fact, I was more shocked last month when I realised that it had already been 11 months than now that’s it’s actually been one year. *sigh*

Oh well, I get to go to Valencia on Saturday and see my family and my baby niece whom I haven’t seen in almost 2 months. =)

I'm an aunt!!!!!!! \o/

The first thing I did after hearing the news was start bawling like an idiot because my mum isn’t here anymore to meet her first granddaughter… but I’m trying to stay positive so I’m thinking it’s alright because baby Angela is going to have one hell of a Guardian Angel up there.

I’m driving to Valencia tomorrow, hopefully I’ll be there in 4 or 5 hours and meet my niece. Can’t wait. =D

I so want to switch my apartment’s switches (see what I did there?) for this… =P

So.
Life has been utter shit the last few months, even more so than it was before. Not going to go into it because I’m trying to keep my mind on cool things to keep my spirits up, sooooooo… I decided to tumblr a bit again, with something nice for a change. =)

I need to start working out again...

Sun, 22 Jan 2012 20:11:57 +0100

I pulled a muscle last night. In my groin.

No, it wasn’t doing anything fun.

And no, that other kind of fun either. *sigh*

In life...

There’s people who get what they deserve. There’s also people who don’t get what they deserve. And there’s also people who get what they don’t deserve. So yeah, life’s not fair most of the time.

And now I’m done with this self-reflection shit.

So...

My grandmother died last weekend. Last week she had to go to the ER because of pneumonia. Then she had a stroke. Then tachycardia. She was 92 so recovering from all that was basically impossible.

I wish I had the energy to update this thing with something other than rants about even more shit happening to my family so I can take it out of my chest without having to worry anybody else. *sigh*

Oh, yeah, and my dad is going to have surgery again because they found a nodule close to his lung that they want to remove. Wooo… =/

"A Series of Unfortunate Events" would be a tame title for my family's life lately...

Sun, 10 Jul 2011 23:02:07 +0200

I just came back from spending the weekend in Valencia with my parents, my sister and her husband. My mum was still feeling quite crappy on Friday (she had her chemo last Monday) and my dad puked in the sink today after a really bad case of vertigo (hopefully he will get better for tomorrow because he has his chemo in the afternoon), so it’s been a not-so-nice weekend.

Considering that in the span of eight months we’ve gone from all being ok to my dad being diagnosed with colon cancer, my mum with lung cancer, and my sister losing her baby when barely one-month pregnant (and I’m not even going to get into the financial and other kind of problems we’re having), I can’t help the feeling of being on edge all the time waiting for the next bad thing to happen.

I really really hope life gives us a break. =/

Moleskine is love.
The Little Prince is love love love.
The Little Prince Moleskines? PRICELESS!!

(brb, too busy drooling…)

Life sucks, big time

Last week, the same day my dad was having his second surgery intervention to have the metastasis on his liver removed, my mum was having her first test to learn more about the tumor she has on her left lung. A week prior my sister noticed a shadow on her left lung in an X-Ray and she didn’t quite like it. We kept it a secret from them for a few days because we didn’t want to add stress to the situation with my dad. Today, after several more tests, we’ve been told that it’s possible that she has metastasis in her brain and/or bones.

So yep. Dad, colon cancer; Mum, lung cancer. One right after the other.

This family needs a fucking break. =/

I'm rotfl'ing, literally.

This is the first exercise of this semester’s design class. It’s called “urban zip” and it sort of explains the evolution of a certain part of the city of Madrid. It took ages to make but I’m pretty pleased with the result. =)

Well, I didn’t know but… Fuck yeah!! Epic day was epic. =)

→ I slept 15 hours
→ I learnt that I passed one of last year’s subject that I was sure I’d flunked (that means only 4 subjects left to finish Architecture)
→ I got an amazing Moleskine notebook for free
→ I got treated to lunch
→ My design professors this semester, who are pretty famous architects and (I was told) complete assholes, are actually very nice and the project we’ll be working on is really, really interesting
→ We got out of class one hour early
→ I found a parking spot right away when I got home
→ Dinner was delicious

If I weren’t so tired I would totally make a booty call. =P

GPOYW ‘I’m using an old photo bc I’m wearing basically the same thing and looking basically the same way after having studied for 2 days straight for tomorrow’s exam which I am so going to flunk anyway’ edition.

This is neat.
