Five days later...

My spring break is over. All I have done is study. And hang out with the dogs. And eat girl scout cookies. Samoas to be exact. I did have some good news. I was able to transfer my MCAT location to Taylorsville instead of St. George!!! woot. You know what the best part about that is? I'm going up the street to the Great Harvest to celebrate with some delicious Oatmeal Chocolate Chip cookies the size of my FACE. Yesssss.... It has been far too long since I have been to that restaurant. Now that we're on the topic of food, I'd like to thank/blame my cousin Erica for getting me hooked on coconut. I was never a huge fan until I went out to DC for my birthday (almost one year ago!) and had it on frozen yogurt all the time. Plus on some delicious cupcakes from Georgetown Cupcake. I just want to go back to DC. Basically. Hence me applying to both Georgetown and George Washington Universities for Medical School. Woot. Sometimes I love Roxie the wiener dog and sometimes she drives me crazy. Right now she's laying in my lap like a sweetheart and earlier she was being a terror. Well, I'm over it. Imma go shower now.

Events of a March Monday

I love Easter time. And it's not for the reasons you think. I like Easter for the CANDY. Mainly the Cadbury MiniEggs and Starburst Jelly Beans. Ok ok, the Reese's Pieces carrots too. What's not to love??? I also love 50 minute phone calls with the skier. They make me happy like this : D  My first day of spring break consisted of tanning, the library, and a tutoring appointment. Very uneventful. The one eventful event to happen today was.....A SPIDER ATTACK! Lemme e'splain-

I was doing some physics homework and minding my own business. I went to look at my planner for tomorrow (I had put a pen in it to hold my place. This seems unimportant now but just remember it.). I opened it and staring back at me was a HUGE  hobo spider!!! Of course I naturally jumped up, screaming, and tossed all contents of my lap across the room. It then became a hunt to find the beast, for it blended in with our dark office-like carpet. I found him, then lost him, then found him. Poor guy. He suffered the two pronged attack of aerosol windex and my sandal from chinatown. He didn't stand a chance.

         So that is my epic spider attack story. I would post crazy dreams on here but nowadays I just dream of failing the MCAT and then weird things like Patrick getting Stacie drunk and getting her to marry him in Vegas...........I'll try and remember my next one and document it in a blog post.

Scrub-a-dub

I got home from clinic today and was too comfy in my new scrub pants to change in to jeans. Big Mistake. I got so many strange looks. It could have been the fact that they were key-lime green in color...but they were still cute! Meh. I'm over it. I have an examination tomorrow in Biological chemistry. But you know what it really is? A test to see how many intermediate structures, enzymes, reagents, and byproducts one students can remember. It's sadly unfair. But, in all honesty, life isn't fair so why should BioChem be? I have spent ~15 hrs studying for this exam. FML. I'm ready for it though. On to happier news---> I successfully drew a patient's blood today at the clinic. woot. Annoying news---> the TDS won their NCAA tournament game. Cue all the comments from their fans about how they win because they do what's "right" on and off the court. Save it. And even BETTER news...I get to sleep now! Yesssss.....

PS Liz- I'm winning in our friendly blogging competition. Can u handle that?!

Falling awake

Remember that one time...when I fell asleep on a Friday night and woke up at 11? Oh yeah, me too. It's a sign I shouldn't go out. Considering I have to wake up in 8 hours it's probably a good idea. So many things on my mind, can't keep them straight. One thing is for sure, I can't wait for cnidarians next Tuesday in lab!!! Probably my favorite week ever in Biol lab. Now I think I'll find my inner fish for a bit then hopefully sleep well. Had way too many nightmares last night. That plus only 4 hours of sleep was no bueno. Rich's with Liz face tomorrow = delicious. Asiago cheese toasted with garden veggie cream cheese...it makes me hungry just thinking about it!
