It’s about time! Thanks to God, I finished my finals like a boss, and now I’m back home for about a month. I’m so thankful that I got through my first semester of college. It’s great to enjoy time with my father, mother, and little sister. I love it. But wait… *Car screech noise* I have surgery next week. Yes, I’m going under the knife. It’s okay, though. This surgery…
