This is pretty much the derelict hovel that I’ve been living in these past few months. It’s dingy, it’s dirty, but it’s home. I spend at least 25 hours a week in the Student Publications Office. Saturdays included.
Next week, we’ll be sending our beloved BLIP to the press. Can’t wait for circulation on January! I must say, it’s rather lovely.

Hearing the new law that was passed right after my clandestine meeting with the doctor, I immediately made a mental list of the people I needed to save my precious one hundred and sixty-seven words for. Forty for my mother and father, I think, just to tell them how my sister and I felt each time we hear the vicious exchange of words coming out of my parents bedroom. Seventy for my sister, just to tell her how much I loved her and how I will always be with her no matter what happens. Fifty-seven words for my best friend, whom I love like a brother, just to tell him how grateful I am for all the times he stayed up all night with me, whispering words of comfort and assurance when I couldn’t bear it anymore. Then, one night, he called telling me how he only said fifty-nine words today, saving the rest for me. In utter shock, I couldn’t speak. I could only think about how much it would hurt him if I told him that I didn’t feel the same way and that he was like a brother to me. After all he has done for me, how could I hurt him like that? So, I resolved to remain silent, leading him to believe that I used up all my words. “One month.” I remember the doctor saying right after I asked how long I had. Just one month, I think, I can do this. Every day that month, he called saying how he loved me again and again while I, in silence, take it all in until one day when my heart finally stopped beating.
