   Clearing up
My sinus had almost cleared up by the time the day started, so yes, I am doing okay. I've been busy for quite awhile focusing on certain assignments. Previously, I was in the library drafting several journal essays for the Humanities course that I had assigned for. It is the least stressful course I have to tread over because I feel that I could gain plenty of knowledge from that particular course.

I haven't talked about this last week, but this past Wedensday, I received a call from back home that apparently was not good news. My mother, who was close to breaking down when she called, told me that my sister's father (supposively my father as well) had suffered a stroke and was pronounced as brain dead. The tone of my mother's voice alone alarmed me.

I remember having missed emotions about the news as she explained what was going on. I felt concerned about the man's health and yes, he is in my prayers. On the other hand, I felt quite numb about it because I grew up my whole life assuming that I didn't have a father. Of course, this man was like a father to my sister and I at least for a time being, but I never saw in his eyes a connection between us. I saw him more as a visitor who occasionally babysits the kids within the neighborhood, never as my actual father. I didn't react in a gloomy manner to the point of breaking down, just mixed emotions. I was more concerned about my sister, generally because the man was more of a father to her than myself, at least. I don't know if there is really an connection between us. Even if there was, if he were to die today, I wouldn't have been able to say my peace w/ him. That is the only thing I'm concerned about.

Well, that is about it.I'll see you guys later.
