How lucky a teenage girl can get?
***
Prom's coming and while everybody is getting giddy about it, here I am, sitting cozily in our home, waiting until the spots all over my body completely vanish.
***
It's not great. Periodic exams are next week, there are so many projects to be passed and lessons to be discussed, and here I am waiting until all the spots have gone.
***
But my parents and the school admin have come into a compromise. As soon as I get to school (if the nurse will let me in), then I will take special exams.
***
Initial feelings: Anger, Hatred, Depression
I have so many things to accomplish. So many things I want to achieve. There is something I want to prove to my parents, and with this, my will may as well vanish.
Next feelings: Irritation, Depression
I realized I overreacted. But then it didn't help to ease the depression I was/am feeling.
***
Those are just feelings. When I stared at the ceiling (for there was nothing I can do at the moment) I realized that I am still lucky. There are people who suffer from more dreadful situations and I'm lucky not to experience what they experience. Now is not the right time to complain. I learned to appreciate many things in just a short time of recluse and I learned how to pray and talk to God every opportunity that I have (which we always have but we do not just notice).

Phew, I miss them. Them people.

Ciao.

P.S. What I have is chicken pox. (Varicella Infection)
