Excuse my absence, things haven’t been too colorful in my part of the world.

First of all, my MacBook’s hard drive died on me two Sundays ago. I lost ALL my files and have been computer-deprived ever since. I had to say goodbye to the thousands of irreplaceable photos and files, and have had to resort to local and cable television to satisfy my TV Show fixes. That means no Grey’s Anatomy, Prison Break, Lost, nor Ugly Betty downloads in almost 2 weeks! It’s still in the Service Center, so I will have to bear with the loss for another week or two.

Then two days after my MacBook collapsed, we had to rush my grandmother to Medical City, Ortigas. She had been feeling and looking weak since she arrived from Canada last month, but looked too pale for her own good that Tuesday morning.The doctors sent her to the I.C.U and started her dialysis (she had actually been diagnosed with renal failure ages ago and was already supposed to undergo dialysis back in Canada) right away that evening. I’ve been sleeping at the hospital to watch over her ever since.

The first few nights were quite hard, because she looked really weak, but the whole family was relieved when she was moved out of the I.C.U to her own room last Saturday. She’s doing well now, and has been eating regularly. She was supposed to fly back to Canada this Friday, but now she’ll have to stay for another month or two until she is well enough to travel.

Anyway, I’ll go back to regular blogging as soon as things start going back to normal… and when I finally get my MacBook back.
