    i think i have proved in the last week that i am about as coordinated and socially skilled as a 3 year old. i guess it is just the stress of everything that makes me do weird stuff.sometimes i freak out and forget what coordinated, normal people do.

    for example, the other day two people were talking. they were standing rather far apart and my path was set to go right in between them, so i thought it wouldn’t be a big deal. like i said, they were standing pretty far apart. well at the last minute i decided that it was rude to walk in between them, but i already was walking in between them… so i freaked out and just kind of…yelled…and ran in between them. why i had to yell and run in between two people holding a conversation instead of just walking quietly by, i don’t know. it seemed like the right thing to do, really it did. at least they thought it was funny and laughed…at me.

    tonight i was packing up my stuff after calculus. i decided to zip up my bag after tossing it onto the desk because that seemed easier. however, we happen to have stadium seating in that room and i was up high and a guy just happened to be walking under me when i tossed my bag up quite forcefully. and of course my stuff shot out of my pack and onto him. i apologized and thankfully he thought it was funny.

    after class i was playing with my styrofoam cup in the hallway, which still had some water in it. i was ripping the top off of it and forgot myself for a minute and ripped the bottom off too…spilling water on myself and the floor.

    and then in calculus we were doing a problem where a bicycle rider is going up a mountain, and we determine that the problem isn’t really reasonable because it turns out her speed approaches infinity as she continues up. a student asked “so what, does she fall off the mountain?” and as the TA is about to answer,  i said “no, she just goes really fast!!!”. i was so excited about it, the only reason i can think is that i had too much coffee right before…hah.because, if you know me, i really don’t speak up in class…like…ever.

    so long as i pass this stuff off as funny i guess it is okay, but if i can’t do that well then i just become that weird one on campus who you try to avoid.

  • i’ve been doing weights again, it’s been pretty fun. just the abductor and adductor machines though, haha. i’ve worked my way up to 60lbs on each, i am trying to work my way up back to 80. the 60lbs today felt harder than 80 ever felt, haha. oh well i’ll get there eventually.

    i attempted to make devilled eggs today, they were rather tasty! although they didn’t look so great, the white exploded out of the shell while they were boiling, but the yolk wasn’t completely cooked. at any rate, it was rather messy. anyway, i tried to make it healthier by using only one yolk and mixing it with mustard and relish, no mayo. it was yummy but not picture worthy…maybe next time :D

    i was studying some biochem today and found out there is an enzyme called flippase. hehe.

    and i also registered for classes today, yay! i have PchemI, advanced synthesis lab, and inorganic chemistry. and yes, i am looking forward to all of them!

  • oh snap.got exams coming up.
    bio II exam tuesday, calc exam thursday, and biochem exam next tuesday. but i still have homework and lab report stuff to do, can’t forget about that
    i will be so glad when this semester is done, i am never taking this many hours again. i will have less hours next semester and it will be nice :) . and it looks like i will get out by noon everyday, yay!

    so hear i am, studying my bio book on a saturday night. i don’t know why people think friday and saturday nights are nights to have fun, they are the best times to study! all those silly people out there having fun, what do they know. they don’t know about human biochemistry like i do, that’s for sure. or multivariable either. silly them.who do they think they are, doing awesome stuff while they could be reading a textbook.they don’t know what they’re missing out on.
    on a very random note, i’ve been thinking a lot lately about the word “hankering”.tomorrow’s goal is to use the word hankering in  a conversation.

    just for fun:

  • dyed my hair!

    yep, i dyed it! it’s not all awesome and purple like last time, but i still like it a lot. it’s a nice shade for summer i think.

    oops…closed my eyes there! but it shows my hair so whatever lol.

    here is a before picture, it is also a picture from when i was camping.

    you can’t really see the difference here, i just wanted to show this picture because i like it :D

  • classes

    I counted what I still need to take to graduate, and it looks like just 9 more classes, yay!
    Physical Chemistry I
    Physical Chemistry II
    Inorganic Chemistry
    Polymers
    Advanced Synthesis Lab
    Physical Measurements Lab
    Molecular and Cell Biology
    Linear Algebra
    Government II

    Because Pchem II is a prerequisite for polymers this is gonna take at least 3 more semesters. But that’s okay because I also still need to get my research hours in.I am supposed to have 6 of them to graduate, but I don’t have a lab to do research in yet :/. It sounds too like research takes several semesters….so I guess I had better get started on that.

  • i keep seeing the phrase eat to live not live to eat. i can’t help but disagree. maybe i love good food too much :P


     

  • today was pretty good, there ended up not being a math review at 9am. instead he had one in the afternoon, i got to catch the last half of it after giving my exam review. tutoring was good too, although it lasted until midnight…haha.so i didn’t have to get up as early, but i ended up staying out later doing school stuff. it all evens out.

    so apparently fafsa stuff is due soon. like, in two days. i know what i’ll be working on tomorrow, in addition to a little of everything else. here’s what i’ve got this week:
    late lab report, the sooner i turn it in the better grade i get.
    calculus homework
    pre-lab (those actually take a while to do…)
    current lab report
    calc test

    and that is just what is due this week. in addition to doing these things i also need to study biochem and bio, because  those exams are a week from tuesday, and i need every day from now until then to study for them.

    dang.

    i am fairly confident i can do it, but i will be confined to my books for the next ten days. this semester has really been intense, i think this is the most i’ve ever taken on at one time. 16 hours, essentially 20 hours due to the 8hr lab that only counts as 4. tutoring stuff at school..tutoring my friend… meh. funny thing is i’m not super stressed out. i know what i have to do and i’m working towards it. at least after this round of exams, i get spring break yay!

  • first day of physical therapy was today, it was alright. it was kinda fun actually.
    i am supposed to go a couple times a week for the next couple weeks.

    tomorrow will be long but productive.
    there is a 9am multivariable calc review, which i really need to attend.
    then right after that i have my own review for like…3 hours.
    then right after that i go and tutor my friend in chemistry until probably about 10pm.

    bleh, 9am on a saturday. oh well, i really need it. i’m just glad he is holding it so early, before i have to give my own review.

    i think that’s all i have to say for now. i need to get busy making an exam review!

  •  i found out some disturbing news. i knew that after my parents got married my dad started working for my mom’s dad. and i knew that after my granddad died my dad took over the business. now, my dad had been laid off and was considering a carreer change when my granddad hired and trained him. what i didn’t know was that while my granddad was still alive, he was letting my parents take home 75% of the profit, even though it was his business. he did it because my parents needed more than he did, because they had a young family. when i found this out i was shocked. here’s my dad, who only owns a business because of my mother, and not only does he divorce her but he hardly helps her out financially. yes, legally he doesn’t have to help her besides child support. but…that still seems kind of…not right. well, it’s a done deal and all, they have been divorced for a few years now. but it was still interesting to hear.

  • so i saw the doc today, and i don’t need surgery yay! he said i had hurt my knees doing the leg press machine and that the knee cap was sliding around and into my femur 0_0. anyway, i’ve got a physical therapy prescription. but he said after that i should be fine so long as i stay away from leg presses and squats :D .
