Bonding For The First Time In Years

I finally got my grades a few days ago. Despite being horribly ill (for at least half the time), stressed out to the point I would find myself crying without even realizing it, and physically fatigued, I somehow did better then most of the scholar students. I didn’t think I could handle going to school 7 days a week but I really proved myself wrong.

For the last 4 days my parents suggested that I go visit my family at my farm. And of course I was thinking “…. Great more lying cheating family ” and at first I had doubts. Just near the front door the blood stains of my grandfather that was murdered was still there after all these years. My family was happy to see me, they didn’t want me to work but I did anyways. I helped plant rice, cut grass with a machete like a boss, carried rice and got it refined, and a lot of other stuff. And we went swimming, I … don’t want to talk about it but by the end of the day I had some bad cuts and bruises. It was ok though I chewed guava leaves and put it on the deep cuts.

I also had a great time with my cousin (hes more like a brother to me). I grew up with him for 4 years so it was nice spending time with him again after so long. Lots of other stuff happened and I ended up with more cuts and sun burn ._. lol I seem to be an accident waiting to happen. I got to spend time with my other family too. And I got to visit my grandfather and uncles grave.

As I left they hopped I could get home safe and I realized, maybe my family isn’t as different from me as I thought, or … maybe they aren’t as bad as I thought they were. They didn’t have much but I got to eat vegetables and rice from the farm 1-2 times a day. And they sent me home with 125 kilos of rice, a bag of raw cacao, and lots of bananas.

Anyways, I hope I don’t have to go volunteer at hospitals by next week when school starts._. a nurse with cuts, bruises, a really bad sunburn, and a real bad glare (I can’t help but give a territorial death glare at random people sometimes :x) might not be too good as a start. And …. The reason I am up at 4:45am is because raw cacao is bitter but an amazing stimulant and it is my new best friend lol. 83

I guess its better to be addicted to this then the more harmful stuff that im working on quitting.
 
Actually it sounds very interesting when you talk about it. All of the physical labor may have been good for you. Also, the fact that you had food and was sent away with packages is nice. It actually is a great story.
