I have just gotten access to my work email, student attendance tracking, and IEP information.  That's right.  Two and a half months later.  I have a shit ton of back-logging to do.  Oy. 

First of all, my dad's all good.  Everything went fine with the surgery.

Next, back in Boston.

C, Wednesday (the day I got back) was the LONGEST day ever.  Dad had the surgery day before so we were at the hospital by 7am, we didn't get to see him after the surgery till 4pm then we left and went to dinner at 7 and didn't get home from that till about ( Read more... )

it's that time of year again. No, not that holly jolly winter holiday time. The end of the semester when EVERYTHING AND IT'S MOM is due. You have a million papers that are always the most important part of your grade because you have to explain to the professor absolutely everything you've ever learned and then there's those 6 finals when you ( Read more... )

Today in class i played with brains.  That's right folks, brains.  Real human brains.  Not so much alive since they've been in formaldehyde for a while, but brains none the less.  I was holding them and squishing them and it was fun.  It was for my neuro class.  The other people in my class were all weirded out by it and thought that they were ( Read more... )

I was so productive today, it was ridiculous.  On the way to class, I saw a man dressed as a giant egg.  There was no face, no body, no arms.  Just a giant egg with yellow legs. It looked like Sheldon from Garfield and Friends.  I wish I had had my camera.  I got to class five minutes early.  That'll teach me to live for class half an hour early.  ( Read more... )

Alright, i know i said i'd post my room pictures today, but today wasn't such a great day.  Orientation was okay, but there weren't any cute boys.  In fact, there was only one boy at my orientation.  There was a girl named Beryl and another named Chelise.  That was fun.  And a girl with one white blonde eyebrow and the other dark brown.  I actually ( Read more... )

Ugh.  I just had probably THE WORST week I have ever had in college.  Seriously.  I haven't actually slept since Sunday night.  What is that 5 days?  Geez.  I should be dead or something.  Everything is all smushed together.  I can't remember what happened on what day.  Here's how it went:

• Get home Monday after going to see Caro in Hair in ( Read more... )

you know what?  I really need some cheering up.  School is sucking the life out of me.  I can't do this anymore.

I hate FIU. 

So yesterday there was the infamous blackout that was caused by good old fashioned "major transmission line failure" instead of say, a hurricane.  That was random.  It's gotta be a first for me.  A non-natural disaster power outage.  So yeah, I was in the middle of lab and we were totally raring to go and do this lab and get it over with when the ( Read more... )
