I have an exam tomorrow at noon, so I decided to stay at home today to study today. One of my assistants(*) has been on sick-leave since Sunday because of flu. A few hours ago she sent me a message that she won't be coming to work until Monday morning. So now instead of studying, I'm trying to get someone to work tomorrow morning, so I can get out of bed and go to school. Out of the 7 assistants I have that one has flu, other one can't work for a few months starting last Tuesday, one has another job so she can't do the shift, two have school, one has doctor's appointment, and the last one will work the long shift from tomorrow night to Saturday morning, so he isn't too keen on doing it either. Sometimes I just wish my life was less dependant on others. It would be nice to be able to concentrate on studying and other stuff without worrying when I can go to bathroom the next time or if I can even get out of bed. Oh well, maybe on next life.

A few hours later: I did get someone to get me out of bed so I can go to school. I'm just not sure if there's any point taking the exam, since I haven't studied much today.

*) I have several personal assistants helping me with daily stuff, like getting out of bed, dressing myself, helping me in bathroom, giving me food, opening doors, handing me that book I just can't reach or the tv-remote which is place 1cm too far.

I sat today listening a lecture about tele-democracy (*), and I started thinking about blogs and how I haven't ever heard of someone who's disabled and living in Finland having a blog. So I decided to start writing one. I'm not sure what will come out of this, but we'll see eventually.
I'm planning on writing about a lot of things, and I don't expect any of the readers to be familiar with all the stuff. That's why I'm marking terms and sentences with *'s. Those things are explained in more detail after the actual post. This way I can concentrate on saying what's on my mind without having to explain everything at the same time.
I'm writing this in English, because more people are able to read it. I don't always know the real terms in English, because I'm not a native speaker. Feel free to leave me a comment, if you think I've written something horribly wrong.

*) tele-democracy means forms of democracy, that most people see as unconvential. In this case it's voting in political elections online, giving your opinion on things that matter on the society, and other things like that.
