It has been a while since I have updated it again. But alongside this it has been a long rough and tough month since I last wrote. Now the Spring is drawing by and I sure am happy that the weather is going to get better. It has been a brutal and cruel Winter this year with all the snow and ice. Good news is we won't see Winter for another 9 months or so. This should be a good part if that doesn't happen for a while. But aside from that college years seem to be closing in quick. I realized that after this year I have a whole year left of college and I am going to be done! What time has flown by? I still remember my parents telling me what my grandpa said. My Grandpa who at that time was 72 told my parents around the time of their wedding that the next 50+ years or so are going to fly by very fast they would be looking back rather than looking ahead. Looks like this may be happening for me in the future too.

During the last month February had not been a great time for me. I had suffered multiple depressions from various occurances around me. Moreoff, school had gotten on me which was annoying. The worst part was there was a first time for everything. My dream back in Middle School and first year of High School had come true which was not a pleasant moment. One Friday in February I was just very upset and hurting because of how my depression went up. I got out of my room to hang out with people in the Union and that didn't make me feel better. After the hangout time I got out and rode my bike fast in order to vent my anger out. It did not do me any good as while going down the hill I sped faster and screamed. What I did not expect was there was just a sheet of black ice in the Mellinger parking lots and BAM! I blacked out and next thing you know I wake up some seconds later and I am on the floor off my bike. I got up walked my bike to the bike rack by my apartment and went inside. My shoulder and arm were just hurting and that moment came the choice where I called Dispatch to help. They sent in EMT's and 5 security officers. They checked on me and I was okay but was put in a sling which made me unable to do a lot as I was right handed.

The next couple of weeks would be very difficult for me because of the fact that I had struggled to write and I had to sit out of Gym Class. But many people such as my roommates were helping me out. I went through many physical therapy appointments to get my arm and shoulder together. I had to do arm and shoulder exercises in order for the blood circulation to get through. It was a tough one and I was not allowed to ride my bike for a long while. Being in a sling had prevented me from a normal life and I regretted my choice. I was suffering depression and now trying to recover. Eventually a few days before Spring Break I was finally able to get cleared up to be out of my sling and out and about. Spring Break had then been a needed time for me as I was away from campus and back home living with peace in my mind. Though I have been back the semester has been busy. But I can do it and I know I will keep on persevering.
