BEN FOLDS!
I have second row of the mezzanine tickets to see Ben Folds and I am SO EXCITED. Tenting out was cold and dirty (I hate camping, even if it is on a college quad and, therefore, not really camping) but actually very fun. There were some extremely loud people behind us who would not SHUT UP for the love of anything, and so I did not get much sleep, but whatever. I took a shower and long nap when I got home, and my tickets are bangin'. Plus, it's always fun to see all the people still left in line after you. Ha.
Unfortunately, due to my three-hour "nap" (I am not sure if that still constitutes a nap, or just a short night of sleep) I have not gotten much of anything done tonight. I should be working on my organic chemistry prelab, but I'm doing this instead. (Can you blame me? Honestly.) I will probably find a way to screw up the experiment no matter how much I prepare for it. I hate chemistry.
Speaking of which, at the CPMA (Carolina Pre-Medical students Association... how fancy) meeting tonight one the admissions guys at Carolina med came to talk to us. Talk about scary. Basically, I have now convinced myself that I will be one of the 33% of students who never get into med school, no matter how many times they apply (not a made up statistic). I mean, I love science (okay, psych and neuro and bio... NOT chem) but I'm not like a science genius. I will never be as smart as so many people I know. And I'm okay with that. I still think that I have the ability to be a really good doctor, but the truth of the matter is, I'm not an A student. I think there's a lot more to it than grades, but it's not like admissions people don't take those into consideration.
Oh well. I guess I have some serious thinking to do before I'm done with school.
But Ben Folds! Sheesh. And new episode of LOST in like 45 minutes, which promises to reveal the answers to three big LOST mysteries! We'll see if they keep up that promise. Later!
