It’s times like this that i’m grateful for having some amazing friends. You know who you are, and i’m eternally grateful for your help (on so many levels).
Finally got a very limited internet connection here on my BOTC course. 2 days down, 9.5 to go! Has been interesting, quite demanding physically.
I miss you all!! especially my boyfriend! *muah*
See you next Sunday :)
p.s. we got snow on the island!! craziness!
I have finally committed myself to writing my regulations exam that I have been putting off for over a month. I will be writing it this Friday before work (1:00pm). For those of you who don’t know, this exam is the final step in my 4.5 year process to become a licensed Aircraft Maintenance Engineer (AME-E). As soon as I pass the exam (they are graded within minutes after completion) I will be the proud holder of an AME licence.
This also means a ~$4/hr raise at work, just as a side note
Wish me luck!
P.s. This also means no Tumblr until after the exam, so I can study my ass off, sorries.
This beautiful man right here is the love of my life. His name is Michael, he’s 24 and while I’m only 19 it doesn’t matter. He also has stage 1 diabetes. I can’t imagine how hard it is for him. Everyday is filled with testing his blood sugar constantly, taking insulin, counting carbohydrates, and so on. To top it all of, he doesn’t have health insurance and he has been declined for medical. Yesterday, Michael ran out of insulin and I took him to the Emergency Room at a local hospital. It took them about 2 hours to seem him even though they knew how serious his condition was. His blood sugar was around 500. Mind you, it’s supposed to be around 150. Finally we got into a room and they were only to give him 15 units of insulin which allows him to eat. They have no samples of insulin at the hospital. They blatantly told him that he is going to have to be without insulin for awhile. I’m sorry for being so blunt but if any of you think that this “system” is working, I really don’t know if you have any common sense. Any system that refuses to give a person with a medical condition, the medicine they need in order to live well I think that system is fucked. We’re run by corporate assholes who are ONLY interested in self profit. This is just another example of why I hate the government. Did I mention we’re going to be charged a couple hundred dollars for having to go to the hospital last night? He should have gotten that insulin for free, it’s all bullshit..either that or everyone should have FREE medical insurance. It’s a fucking human right!
Reblog if you agree, I really want to see how many of you actually do.

So I thought I might as well use my 5000th post as an outlook on 2011. Hope you don’t mind some personal reflection from your’s dearly. I have some high hopes for the new year, here’s to hoping they all work out:
So those are some of the highlights, I have some ideas already on how to execute them so stay tuned :).
p.s. I’m also going to try and give my blog a little more of a personal feel. We’ll see how that goes.
I want to meet some new people, so if you have nothing better to do, you should send me your msn/yahoo/aim/whatever so we can chat :) I would love to get to know some more of my followers.
