Should I cry tears of happiness, or tears of sadness?

I know it's not good to get too sad about anything, but when you find out your friend was diagnosed with cancer 6 months ago, it's not much cause for celebration. I don't know whether it's curable, I didn't get that far into asking her. I blubbed pretty much as soon as I heard. At first I wasn't sure that I'd heard her properly, but when I asked, "... cancer?" and she nodded, I just completely fell apart inside.

Of course she should be the one who is more upset, but I suppose after six months of knowing something like that, you come to terms with it somewhat and just accept that it might be curable, and it might not. These things happen... and sometimes they go away. But most of the time they stick.

There is cheery news however; I received my work experience placement, and I'm going to Bradley's Restaurant in Huddersfield for two weeks :D. 10AM - 3PM days, with morning and afternoon breaks. Apparently it's a lovely restaurant, so I'm really glad that my application impressed. Now I just have to brave the phonecall... which I'm not nervous about at all :D!
