good health and money, or lack of.

not that i whine enough but let me briefly list all the things that aren't going my way.

-the filling on the back part of the very back tooth of my mouth fell out. it took about 2 hours to get it in. so my mom thinks i'm going to have to get a crown back there. awesome.
-i think i had a ear infection on the right side, but now i think it moved to the left. my right one is better though.
-on homecoming weekend, one of the doors of my dorm gashed my foot open. it was pretty nasty and it's healing kinda weird. i'm not sure if it's scabbing or just infecting. yikes.
-i'm zinc deficient so i had to get two steroid shots in my head, a b12 shot in my arm, and a daily dose of 6 omega3 pills and 2-3 zinc pills. well those bottles of pills were about $40 a pop and i've now run out. but i am too poor to get some so my mom is running to walgreen's to buy some knock-off brands to hold me over.
- speaking of the lack of money, i overdrafted my debit card not once, but FOUR times in one day. stupid debit cards don't deny charges if there's no money left. so it roughly $30 each item each day. awesome. and so i think i have at least $300 of charges to my account. i suck at life.
-so with all of these things, i don't know how i'm still able to afford baylor university. it seems so much easier to just quit baylor and go to UTA.

you know. i'm glad these things aren't going my way.
God is showing me that i should be happy that i don't have cancer and that my worries are only about my lack of zinc and a lost filling. He is also showing me that money isn't everything.
God is the only thing worth living for :)
