Avoid sources of negativity. We all tend to get a daily hit of negativity whether we like it or not. It's part of our routine and our society. Panic attacks are based on the way you think about yourself. It is easy to be tough on yourself so learn to stop doing it. It only serves to put you down when the people around you aren't. Stop telling yourself negative stuff like your boring, dumb, useless, ugly.

I woke up this morning at 8:30, and since I wake up usually an hour earlier to get ready for school, I started to panic. I opened my door, and I noticed my mom had her coat on - and she looked at me, and I started to panic, since I had an exam today. I started to freak out, and she told me that the buses were cancelled because of the amount of snow, so exams were going to be postponed until tomorrow. Then she told me to go back to bed, but hey, it's me - once I wake up, I CAN'T go back to bed. XD

It's still snowing now as I type this... I just love the look of snow. It's so pretty and beautiful. =3

I found out recently that my cousin is now ENGAGED! =D I'm so happy for him! ^^ I'm yet to figure out when the wedding date is, though. But still.

My youth pastor also invited my brother and I out to lunch yesterday. I agreed, and thought it was a good idea - he wants to catch up with us, and see how we're doing, and how everything's going and all that. He'll be taking us out on Friday afternoon. I'm not excited, and I'm unsure if I'm looking forward to it, but y'know, whatever. That's just me. It's the thought that counts, and hey, who doesn't enjoy a FREE LUNCH?! :)

Oh, and I noticed that this past week - my dad is really interested in applying for a job that involves working with sick people. You know, like talking to them, or something. Over the past year or so, my dad's been having work troubles - he can't get along with his fellow employees, due to some personal issues that I will not mention, and he keeps talking to my mother about looking into job applications with him online. It's a little odd, and I'm kinda on my toes. He keeps talking about moving, and he reassures me that it's just him who will have to move, or something like that.... But even so, I don't want my dad to move away...

It's also a goal of mine to finish Much Ado About Nothing throughout the course of the free time that I have off (which is four days). Then I'll take a break from reading for a few days, before I start a novel (it's a modern one, mind you!) that I got for Christmas from my dad. The old English is starting to get to my head. XD

I might as well take some time and write for a little while, since I haven't had much time to do that lately.
So, yep, my Science exam was SUPPOSED to be today - but it isn't. It's tomorrow. D: Oh well. ^^

And I just don't know what's causing them. I haven't really had any since I've been on these meds, but for seem reason, out of nowhere I get really anxious and then PANIC ATTACK. It kept me up really last night for no reason whatsoever. I couldn't fall asleep no matter what I did. Just felt it was kinda odd. Maybe I'm worried about this weekend...

So.. apparently my week break before the next internship is.. more like a week and a half?... and I had no idea!

On the news..

I have a new mobile phone! Nokia 3120 Classic (Symbian series 40), black. I hate it, but it was the cheaper I could find with decent features. So, now I have to spend like, a week or so, configuring, uploading ringtones, music, games, themes.. whatever I need to make it look like.. mine.

My other phone simply stopped working. First it wouldn’t charge the battery, then it lost signal, later it wouldn’t recognize the SIM card and now it simply won’t turn on. At least that’s the official version.

Unofficially, I connected a 12V charger into it before all that happened.. *whistles*

Anyway.. my girlfriend is finally doing something about her anxiety attacks. She went to a doctor last Friday. Apparently, he assured her that she wasn’t depressed, that she wasn’t suffering from anxiety, all she has is “panic syndrome”.

Well, I don’t know much about it, but what I learned in nursing school is that panic is a sign of anxiety, an exaggerated fear. I don't know. Supposedly, anxiety has a source, while panic doesn't need one? Well, truth is that she’s daily taking an anti-depressive, a sleep inductor and there’s an anxiolytic prescribed for extreme situations.

No psychological counselling? Yeah, I wonder. But hey! He’s the doctor.

But you know what? It’s really cool to know that she’s doing something about it. Besides, thanks to her sleep inductor, our late night calls only last for 20 minutes, and that’s great because, having her on the phone, constantly asking “what are you thinking in?” was driving me insane.

I’m a nice boyfriend. Seriously! She says so :P
