so here is blog 21, kinda sounds like the new bond film coming out like i dunno soon? lol as per always ill break down my happenings over the past few weeks into chunks to make it lighter on you to read ;)

Home

as mentioned in my last blog, some of you may remember my father having multiple myeloma which is a cancer in the blood. few weeks ago his health went really bad as he had sugar hypos and weak legs during my first week of holidays so i was stuck at home all of that week till he was supposed to be admitted into hospital to start his bone marrow transplant which was last week. since then im home alone during the day which is a nice change in a way, as im more free to do what i want without being hassled all the time. His transplant hasnt started yet as he has the final and largest dose of chemo left to go, which they had to hold off as he's had blood sugar and blood pressure problems since hes been in hospital, and his heart strength is at 38% capacity which is 2% under recommendation. today he went in to get tests done to see if hes ready to go through with the chemo, and the doctors decide whether they belive he should go home for christmas to rest and get better and do the transplant in the new year. everyone is hoping he'll be home for christmas but he wants it over and done with.

in unrelated news, i got my L permit 2 weeks ago, so ill be driving soon :D hopefully i dont start thinking its burnout :lol:

School

school finished for me a few weeks ago (yay) and i also got my reports today, to everyone else they might think of it as being great, but letter grades arent of concern to me anymore, exam marks are where its all at, and heres what i got;

2B Biology: 57% 52% +5%
2B English: 64% 59% +7%
2B History:80% 69% +11%
2B Science: 68% 69% -1%
2B Maths: 74% 90% -16%
2B philosophy and ethics: 70% 72% -2%

(highlighted numbers denote last semester)

so overall i got 4 A's, a B and a C. only thing im bummed out is english as no matter what i cant get an A, and the teachers always generalise you have to do x to do better, but they dont say how and they dont help, which doesnt help me at all

Gaming

2 trophies from LittleBigPlanet plat, which one i need 4 players and the other is easy and nearly done with MW2 which i hope i will finish both by december 31st. not sure what happens after i finished them though as i dont have any more games i would like to play and im flat out broke for a long while, so maybe time for me to get a job and money?

Everything else

well 2009 is about to wrap up soon, and i have a feeling next year will be even bigger than this year as everything gets hectic as i finish up school, make plans for uni, schoolies, yaer 12 formal, a job, all these new releases coming out, turning 17......its making me anxious and nervous and scared at the same time, but im hoping it all works in my favour.

oh and also just out of curiosity for those still in school, what do you hope to be when you finish high school?

well that wraps up blog 21, and my final blog for the year will be on the last week of december with pick ups of my year, my lists for next year and goals. Until then Monkey out :D
