Because Dave is playing around with my laptop & I'm too lazy to go switch the main computer on - I'm writing this from Dave's laptop & it will only be a short post because I am so tired & just realised I'm in University tomorrow for 9am again... yawn.
I'd like to say Thanks to Hannah & Courtney for commenting on my post yesterday. Your both right, talking about my dad's condition rather than keeping quiet about it has made me feel a lot better. Like I said, I joined the Macmillan website [not & I have already heard from a few people in the same boat as me & know exactly how I feel. If any of you are reading this, Thanks again for taking the time to read that long entry.
It all comes down to the fact that I am a very quiet/shy person [until you get to know me]. I hate any kind of confrontation & when people tend to ask me if I'm okay when I'm not - I'll just smile & say yes. I remember last semester when I was giving some work in late, the reason being I had been extremely upset after seeing my dad so weak one day]. Okay I had left some of the work until last minute - but I would have finished it in time if I hadn't of been feeling so bad. I remember the nosey secretary interogating me for a reason why it was late & I just couldn't tell him at all, I felt that if I did it would almost be an excuse, if that makes sense? I just stood there while he was shaking his head at me, lol - like being in school again, having a row.
I've decided in the next meeting with my personal tutor I am definitely going to tell her everything to get it off my chest even more - and hopefully that nosey secretary will stop being so nosey.

Letting her know the situation wouldn't be making excuses.. just letting her know what is going on, so she can keep it in mind.
I'm glad you're feeling a little better anyways.. it's good to talk.. especially with the people going through the same thing.
