-don't listen to nields
-ignore stomach when it whines, eat frosting instead
-go running sleevless in shorts, walk to class wearing a winter jacket
-LIVE in the med library
-when not in class, be hermione
-practice orgo. when that gets old, make micro flashcards, when there's no more micro to make flashcards of, learn genetics and realize compulsive gambling sucks, throw away the dice and don't have kids. Afterwards, make motor memory absorb calculus. When all else fails, practice for the MCAT.
-contemplate self declared mountain day with margaret. after all, the university of green mountains should have a mountain day if anybody should.
-when it becomes apparent that there is no time for the wonderful self-appointed mountain day, thanks to exams, start contemplating bridges instead.
-angst at a certain scottsman, who would be so kind as to bring orgo exams to our newly disembowled-selves in the ICU, clean room, BL4 unit. there is no stopping sandy the scottsman... aka. sandy the orgo fairy.
-plot for the entire week kof vacation that is thanksgiving
-when there is no more energy for plotting, simply gaze with longing urgency at the calendar.
-go to bed the moment before your eyes close, so as to miximize the waking hour workweek.
-don't dream
-realize that there is no time for frivolous thoughts of writing, magick, T, or harry potter; the world will be infected by antibiotic resistant microbes if someone doesn't do something RIGHT NOW. Thus, pass the micro exam on wednesday. and the lab practical next thursday. and successfully identify the major unknown. And don't fail anything else while you're at it, because somehow there's still space for drafty november to sneak it's cold fingers through the cracks.
