My mom is amazing!
Can I just say how amazing my mom is! About 3 years ago I developed IBS, which has completely affected my life. I have struggled with it this whole time because there is not one thing that causes it or that helps it. It's an illness that doesn't have a cure basically, I just have to try and manage it. But thats even more difficult because there are not specific things that help or cause an IBS reaction and things that help one person don't help another, it's all individual; it's like a guessing game and I have to take life hour by hour and hope I feel well enough to function. Anyway my mom is amazing! I have been really sick this past week so she did more research and looked online to find another specialist in Utah that might be able to help me. She knows how much time and effort we have spent over the past 3 years researching and learning about IBS, how to help it, what hurts it, what tests can be done, what medication and teas help etc. After so many years doing this I get frustrated even looking things up anymore. So she spent her time looking up information and then assembled a "cheat sheet" as she calls it of all the information she found! She is amazing! I love my mom! I don't know what I would do without her! She means everything to me and I had to express how grateful I am for her! This may seem like a little thing but it means so much to me. It shows so much unselfishness and the kind of person she is to do something like this for someone else. She is always thinking about us, her kids, more than herself. She truly would do anything for us and this to me shows that! I'm so grateful for my mom!

What to say...?
So I decided I would start a blog. I'm not sure if anyone cares to read these things however. It has always seemed strange to me that people have a web page devoted to themselves, but I guess I'll join in.
I don't really know what to talk about though. Today I spent most of my time finishing this dumb take home midterm that I decided I didn't care about anymore. There is only so much you can do before you just have to turn it in. I'm not really caring about most of my classes right now actually. I don't know why. I physically cannot get myself to care about school right now. I'm doing fine grade wise in my classes but I don't work as hard as I could be.
I'm watching American Idol right now which I used to like a lot but this season seems super cheesy to me. Maybe it's just because they're still in the top 24 but for some reason it's boring me. Plus it's the night when someone gets kicked off and all the other contestants are crying, like they are really sad someone is leaving. I'm sure they're only crying out of joy that it's not them getting kicked off.
Well this is it for my first blog. It's kind of exciting actually even if no one ever reads it. To be honest it would probably be better if no one reads it so I can say whatever I want.
