Lets see... tomorrow is my birthday. Ugh... I dont mind turning a year older, its just that this is the first birthday that I wont be with my family and well "augie friends". My friends here are taking me to the beach though- which should be fun. And they are making me something... a surprise that I cant know about until tomorrow.
Update on school- its freaking hard! I spent i think 13 hours on friday doing just cell biology. I doubt it would be as frustrating if I actually liked it... but alas- I hate it and therefore it sucks! But I now have a 21 page typed document of the learning objectives for her lectures.
I did the same thing today with the anatomy that we have had so far- but that document is only 16 pages long.
Tomorrow is my bio-chem/genetics day which should be a little less stressful, but then on my way home in the taxi, a 5th semester student was like… first mini- biochem. So now I’m thinking oh shit. But the good news is that the course of Biochem here encompasses genetics and maybe embryology- both of which I had a very good teacher for. So hopefully she was good in the sense that the things I learned at Augie will pertain to the things I need to know here.
I also have to find out if Alloy ships to the island because I’m gonna be needing some new shorts/pants eventually. Not in the immediate future- but I will have to go find a belt. he shorts that I did bring were once pants that I chopped the bottom off- and they were on clearance to they are already a size to big which is leading to shorts that I do not have to unbutton to take off… which is interesting.
I went through my music on windows media player today- cleaned off 600 songs that I couldn’t access for some reason (well my computer did) and I was having a good time listening to the random stuff that was on there… Like a Tenacious D album and South Park songs… sadly its easy Mkay was not on there L. Then I listened to the entire At Worlds End CD while typing anatomy origins and insertions, innervations and actions. Monday comes the Brachial Plexus (which apparently dominates the first mini).
I blasted my apartment with spray stuff today and at least currently it smells better. Which is nice. The bathroom now has a weird funk to it though… which makes no sense because I hardly ever use it. (and I think of it more like the camper bathroom- only #1 unless you’re really desperate). Im never in my apartment during the day so its easy to use other buildings toilet paper.

That last part about the bathroom and other buildings' toilet paper cracked me up!
ReplyDeleteIt sounds like you're still hard at work. I think once the initial "Oh Shit" has passed you'll fall into a good groove. The foundational part is going to be the most difficult.
