turned out the light to go to sleep tonight. shortly after…i heard water dripping! loudly! i’m the only one up now, i know nobody else has turned it on. i was reminded of a scary story my friends told once at a slumber party when i was like 8, involving a girl hearing a dripping noise all night. turns out i left the knob on when i went to bed. out water is turned off so it wasn’t dripping at that point…i guess whatever water was left in the pipes made its way to the faucet shortly after going to bed. anyway…creepy stuff!

oh…and i anticipate being sore in the morning! we’ll see if that comes true or not.

also, on  a random note…flash forward is being cancelled :/.i had doubts about that show when it first started, it really wasn’t that great. but it’s become very interesting in the last part of this season. bummer.although, maybe i’ll change my mind after i watch the finale .

also, i haven’t seen the lost finale yet. i’m putting it off, i don’t know why…i’m kind of nervous about watching it, a lot of people were disappointed by it. i even had a bad dream the other night, that i had watched the finale and the whole time they just followed one story line…and then it ended! it sucked.

i had a rather scary dream last night too. i dreamed that i had forgotten about a class, at the very end. i dreamed it was like, now, and i only was just now realizing that i forgot to take the final . i woke up this morning under that assumption, and it was really scary! but after a few minutes i realized that no, i had never had a statistics class, and there really was no final that i had missed. weird to be having bad school dreams 3 weeks after school was done. or maybe it’s just two, it’s difficult to tell. the time has just been running together, tough to tell apart days when you have nothing to do…lol.

so i’ve been going to this church for the past few months, mostly because they have a college group that meets at a time that i can attend. but i feel like the teaching is kind of weak. maybe it isn’t maybe it’s just me. but i don’t feel like i take much away from church, and i don’t like that feeling. and the college group is rather small…and i’m not sure i really fit in there. they’re nice and all, but i don’t know. i just don’t feel like i have much in common with them.

although, i did go to the zoo yesterday with a couple of the people there! it was pretty fun . just now one of them is texting me a lot to hang out…which is nice, but at the same time…i don’t have money to hang out all the time lol. she does a lot of stuff that requires money and well…i can’t x_x. besides that, this girl seems to think i’m their best friend now. which isn’t totally bad, i mean she’s nice and all that and we had a good time. but…well…i don’t know, it just left me feeling a little weird? it’s not a big deal really, it’s rather nice that she wants to spend time with me . but i think maybe she is jumping the gun a bit. and i am very lazy and not totally social and kind of like just chilling on my own most of the time.

tonight i went to a Bible study at my school. i have been wanting to go all school year but was always busy with homework. i didn’t realize they held meetings during the summer but saw on fb that they do have meetings so…i went! and i liked it a lot. hah..maybe i will just start going there and not go to my college group.it’s nice being with a bunch of christian kids who are in school like me. at my church’s group…not so much. i think only a couple of the people are actually taking college courses right now. not that i’m discriminating, it’s just nice being with people who understand better when you say you can’t hang out because you have to study…because they do the same thing too.

after Bible study i went and got bubble tea. but they were out of pearls . so i got a double order of jellies instead hehe.

got videos of my cat! i tried to get some different ones up earlier but they were too big . so here are a couple of shorter ones!

 i have been so lazy this whole week i’ve been off school. and you know what? i’m not quite bored yet .although i think i am about to be, so it’s good i’ll be doing some coaching over the next week. give me at least a little purpose.

 i checked out the hobbit from the library, i really like that one.

i’ve been going on walks, it’s been really nice out . it’s been a little cloudy and windy and in the 80s when i go out. i love it. it’s especially nice when i listen to a book on CD. so much fun! the only downside is i have to wear sunscreen. that can get annoying. stupid sun! just kidding, the sun is very important!

but yeah, that’s about all i do to kill time: sleep in, go walk, and watch TV. i’m surprised it’s not getting really old yet.

i feel like i was going to write about something but i can’t think of it at the moment. i guess that means it’s time for bed.
oh yes, and i also go and buy bubble tea

here’s this video, it’s great

okay so i intended to do that dress sense thing, where you take pictures of your outfit for the day for 7 days straight. i kind of failed, it wasn’t 7 days straight and i’m not even sure it’s seven days, and i’m pretty sure everyone has done it by now already anyway. but now i have all these pictures of my clothes so i am gonna go ahead and post anyhow.

haha…this dress is really fun

these are my shoes by the way.and ummm i crossed my feet so that’s why they looks funny

 with kitty too, because she is an accessory

 
okay so i guess i did have seven after all .

and most days i guess i like like 7, haha. or 3 .but i did try to dress up a bit for the last week or so of school. especially since lab was over and i didn’t have to worry about dressing for lab!
oh and i wore that belt a lot…mostly because it is brand new and i am excited to have it

finals start this week.
i have two exams thursday back to back, starting at 8am 0_0. good thing about being back to back is i won’t worry about crashing before the second one lol.
i have one more exam next tuesday, at least i hope it’s just one. i still don’t have that last assignment grade that i turned in 2 1/2 weeks ago and that he said he would grade on thursday. until i know that grade i can’t say for sure i get to skip out on my bio final. i sure hope i can skip it though, it would be nice to just have calculus to worry about.

last official day of classes tomorrow. not very motivating to go because it is just gen chem haha. but they pay me to attend so…i attend .

anyway…about finals…i wish they were over already! x_x.

oh yes and very random side note, but i wish healthkicker would quit these anti-smoking posts, everyone knows by now that smoking is bad. if you don’t you’re living under a rock and don’t have internet to read those posts anyway.

oh i forgot something

i tried to read this earlier and, well, failed. you can see why.
maybe i will try this particular slide again tomorrow…because right now i’m reading but nothing is sinking in, lol.

Regulation of Fatty Acid Synthase
Fatty acid synthase (FAS) is a central metabolic enzyme in lipogenesis.
FAS genesis transcriptionally activated in response to feeding and insulin
signaling.
Transcription factor USF is required for the activation of FAS transcription.
DNA-PK, a kinase central to the DNA damage response mediates activation of
FAS via a switch-like mechanism involving phosphorylation and deacetylation.
Under fasting conditions, transcription factor USF deacetylated, causing
promoter inactivation.
USF phosphorylation by DNA-PK, which is dephosphorylated by PP1 in response
to feeding, Feeding induces the recruitment of to USF-1 and its phosphorylation,
which then allows recruitment of P/CAF, resulting in USF-1 acetylation and FAS
promoter activation.
DNA break/repair components associated with USF induce transient DNA breaks
during FAS activation. In DNA-PK-deficient SCID mice, feeding-induced USF-1
phosphorylation/acetylation, DNA breaks, and FAS activation leading to
lipogenesis are impaired, resulting in decreased triglyceride levels

so i was in the elevator at school and just as the doors were closing i got the urge to put my now emptied mountain dew can in between them so it would get crushed. when the elevator opened up again i set my can on the ground and walked away. the doors wouldn’t shut for a long time…and when they did i heard a beeping sound. 0_0. but yay, at least it was crushed…right?wrong! the doors opened again, the can still sitting on the floor where i had set it.

when i picked it up, though, i saw a small dent. i was a little pleased to have caused at least some kind of damage. although it wasn’t the amazing crushing i had  been hoping for.

and the moral of the story is this: if you ever want to frustrate the people working on the 12th floor, just put coke cans in all the elevator doors at ground level. the elevator will stay there until the can is removed .

totally.
pointless.
post.

without cardigan…

with cardigan!

lol i look angry
