My Everyday Liife

Welcome to a part of my lupie life... its been a journey and i cant say a very easy one. this blog is going to show you anything is possible and even with a chronic illness you can still go out and explore this world. getting diagnosed with lupus isn't something that is planned it just happens and i cant give you a reason on why. i got sick at the age of 15 years old just a freshman in high school with no expectation of going through a life changing experience. i never had a chance to really process or cry the way i wanted when i got sick i had to be strong and react to take care of myself right away. so that's why i have this blog to write my emotions and share my feelings and experiences in the best way i know how and that's writing....i want other lupus warriors to know you aren't in this alone we all are in this together. it took me a couple years to post pictures of me at my worse times when i was swollen from the medications but i'm not ashamed of them because i know when i look back it shows how much i 'accomplished in the last few years. so i here to show you my absolute worse times and my best times. i hope this helps you understand me more and help you warriors as well.

HomeSchooling Started!

So my home studies finally started yesterday, and my tutor came and we got everything set up on the computer. His name is Mr.Pound and he comes twice a week, Mondays & Thursdays at 1p.m. and they are 2 hour sessions every time. I am taking 3 courses at the moment algebra, English, and business, so far I think its kind of hard! But I did my assignments today and its a lot of writing and essays, which kind of bores me but I know I got to get through these studies and graduate with my class.When I am done with those courses I will get more and then succeed in those. So wish me luck and hopefully the studies and assignments will get easier and I will get everything I can done to be great in school & catch up with all my work and grades!  Toodle Loo!! =]

Videos Of Me Driving The Dunes!

Me Driving the Sand Bowl with my cousin Miriam!

Backk From The Dunes!

Hey I'm back from Glamis, it was a great trip and I had a blast with my family! It was kind of hard for me though, because it was really hot and I had to be real careful about the sun! I  had to stay in a trailer or be all covered in the shade during afternoon hours, which really sucked because that's when everyone was having most of the fun! But I got to ride and have fun in the morning & evening, my papa taught me how to drive the razor! It was so much fun, I rode the dunes and he taught me a few tricks too. We had great food to, the first night we ate hamburgers, then we had chilli cheese dogs and those were really good! But over all smores night was awesome, I had smores with my cousin Miriam, we sat next to the camp fire and ate like piggy's! It felt good to get out and finally have an adventure with my family, my first lupus trip outdoors! I only had a few minor pains while i was there, but my back pains were getting pretty bad. but i think that was from riding the dunes and stuff. On the last day, we were getting all packed and started to head HOME. But we got stuck in dead traffic for 7 hours straight, it was horrible! The car ride really tore me up, I had a bad headache and back pains like crazy, right when we got home I crashed out. I kind of flared up from the sun, I was getting the butterfly rash again and a breakout of redness on my face. But I'm doing god right now, I feel good and I had an amazing time while I was in Glamis, so that's all that matters! I hope to do more adventures and just the strong Stasia I know I am. GLAMIS BABY!!!!! =] (Oh and in the picture its Me Driving and my cousin Miriam beside me.)
