No, my mother isn't dead nor do I have breast cancer. But I understand that my chances are higher than average, seeing that colon and breast cancer are the only heriditary cancers. How burdening it would be to keep such a heavy secret locked away for years. This struck my eye while I was browsing this link, thanks to Lily, cuz it seemed so close to home.

As soon as I got back up to Davis, I scheduled another examination of a large lump on my boob. The 1st time 7 months ago the doctor said it was nothing; I knew better. I went with my gut and got a 2nd opinion today, turns out to be a mysterious boil of some sort that might need surgery. Its definately not breast cancer. I'll get the test results on Friday to be certain whether I need surgery.

I am scared out of my mind. Its gonna drain some financial aid, but tis necessary.

On a lighter note, a 13 yr old boy approached me and started rapping and dancing to me. I wanted to bust out laughing but instead I gave him my angry Asian girl stare. I ran another 3 miles today. A guy I've never met before asked me 3 times to play water polo with him. And in a few hours I'll be drinking my night away in celebration of Nancy's 20th.
