Christmas vacation
I thought that maybe this Christmas Vacation would pass by so quickly. More like a blink of an eye but it's strange. The hours and minutes are passing by rather slowly but maybe I am wrong. I have been volunteering at so many places these few days, I feel like the days will never end. From Christmas In the Park, Christmas Tree Lots, Library, my mom's workplace, and church. I mean I am not complaining or anything but sometimes it gets difficult. I get so caught up in what I am doing, I actually forget to eat. Last Saturday I was working for 10 hours and hadn't eaten anything. I got up late and had to leave quickly and didn't devour my breakfast as usual. So, anyways, I worked in the Library and wen to Downtown in a rush. My shift ended at 6:00 and I decided to eat something but they called me to work at the Food Booth. This shift ended at 10:00 and I was so sleepy. The only thing I have had the whole day was a couple of French Fries. I felt pretty weak at the end of the day and I blame myself. It's really difficult for me to eat something when I am not at home. The reason why is because my family always know what I am supposed to eat and the diet I have. When I am all alone without a guardian, I can't concentrate on anything to eat. In fact, about a couple years ago, my cousin had brought these donuts that were delicious at the time. After a few hours, I noticed that my head was aching and I was throwing up uncontrollably. Everyday for two months, I threw up everything I ate. The doctor said I had stomach flu but little did they know it would scar me for life. After I came to America, I went to the doctor and he told me that my stomach was seriously damaged. In order to never throw up like that again, I had to plan a special diet. It's not sot easy but everything has been fine ever since. So, I'd like to keep that way but it's also not healthy to not eat.
