headache + cramps + studying for biology = pain
Well the good news is the week has finally winded down and it is in fact Friday night.
However, it seems that Friday isn't as excited to see me as I was to see it.
I had a pretty full day of classes today. English was pretty useless as always. We were given a piece of paper with a scenerio and then we had to take a side and "argue" it with the other side of the clas, which consisted of 7 people today. It was about a couple that went to the hospital to see if their fetus had a chance of having sickle cell anemia, and also to find out if they were both carriers as well. Turns out that after the test was done it showed that the child was going to have the recessive trait for sickle cell anemia, AND it also showed that her husband was not the real father of the child because he did not have the gene for the sickle cell trait. It was quite an amusing story if I do say so myself. Almost something right out of a soap opera. And to make matters WORSE, we found out that this scenerio was actually true! Can you imagine? I think if I was the guy I would have just killed her when I found out. What a ho!
I had biology today too, which in this case was one of the most important classes to go to because the third exam is Monday. Now, I am not exaggerating when I say that biology is seriously kicking my ass this semester. And the best part is, I am in biology 1201 because I was originally a nursing major. However, I have chosen against that path. I have decided to be an elementary school teacher instead. It just seems that education is a more "Natalie" profession. Select family members always told me that I was going to "grow up to be a teacher", and I, of course, would disagree. So it turns out that after taking courses here, they were right. I started looking into it and decided that that would be the perfect job for me. I haven't chosen what grade I would like to go for though. I was thinking between 3, 4, and 5. I am just trying to stay away from the younger children (the booger pickers and the pee in the panters) and also the teenage children (the hormonal smartasses).
I also went to classical studies today, which is a class that I never go to. Really. Never. Just on the exam days. I went today though because I wanted to change the day of my exam. It was scheduled for Monday, but I have my biology exam AND my english paper due on Monday. So I just pushed it back to Wednesday. That should be way better. Speaking of english, as the beginning of the semester he told us that we would be writing roughly six paper. The paper that is due on Monday is only paper number TWO! So unless we are going to be writing papers extremely fast, which would be like one a week, I think that we are only going to get one possibly two more in. We'll see. I actually have a really good grade in that class so I am not too concerned either way.
Moving on to more exciting matters.
After class I went to the union to grab something to eat. I definitely forgot that it was Friday which means NO CHICKEN! And of course, to make my day even more perfect, I got a chicken sandwhich from Chick-Fil-A. After I got back to my room and ate the ENTIRE sandwhich, I realized that I wasn't supposed to eat meat today! Hopefully God will forgive me for my forgetfulness. It was quite the tragic event when I remembered. I felt really bad :(
I watched the soap operas after that. I was accompanied by Anna for a little while and then Raquel stopped by later on. Having company is fun. Then I started to feel like shit and realized that my "friend" had arrived. Of course, after this happens you should just hit me over the head with a frying pan. It's just all down hill from then on. I don't know if I am the only one. Now tell me if it is just me. But when you actually start, you really don't start to feel like complete shit until you look and you're like "damnit!" It's almost as if you would just never look, you wouldn't start to feel like shit. It's like some stupid reaction. Once you see it, on comes the pain! And at full throttle! Seriously, just pass me the frying pan.
So I took some Bufferin to try and make myself feel at least a little sane. Well, not so much help came. So I just watched "The Wedding Planner" and ate my dinner. I really like that movie. I've been meaning to buy it, but when I go to I always forget if I already have it or not. I get it confused with "Maid in Manhattan" which I do have. I am just a confused person. My DVD's may be alphabetized, but I'll be damn if I can actually remember which ones I have.
Cullen left for Dallas around lunch time. He has his first footy game (Austrailian Football for the people looking at the screen with the expression "WTF'?"). So he'll be gone the whole weekend, which means that I'll be here doing nothing but shoving my nose (against my will) into my biology notes with a little side of my english paper on "malaria being an affect of deforestation". Exciting I know. Right now you are thinking, "If only I could be so lucky as Natalie my life would be complete at this very moment." And I know how you feel. It makes me want to piss my pants too!
"When Fools Rush In" is on now. I still haven't decided if I actually like this movie or not. I like everyone in the movie, but there's something about it. Maybe it isn't that funny, or maybe I don't like the colors that are used. I mean really who will ever know. Certainly not me. Because if I did, I would be able to cure my anxiety of not knowing what the exact reason is for me not knowing if I like this movie or not. If anyone does know the answer to this question, please tell me. It would be greatly appreciated.
Oh, and as an update for anyone who was curious (which you ALL should be), Travis (my dog) is doing much better. For those of you who didn't know, he had a stroke about a week ago. So, we have been working on getting him better. Looks like he's going to be just fine. The only thing that looks permenant is his head leaning to the left. But, that is good news because that means he's not in any pain, and he can still do everything for himself. It's actually pretty funny because when he shits it's like the greatest accomplishment in the world! My mom actually calls me and tells me, "Travis shit this morning!" I mean really, how much greater can things be! Maybe I should talk more to my mother about more important things, like life, happiness, sex, hahaha. That last one was funny. I laughed.
Well, I think that I am going to give Raquel a "HOLLA!" I have an entire thing of strawberries in my fridge. And, my parents are coming to pick me up for Spring Break on Wednesday. So yeah, I kind of have to eat everything that will go bad in a matter of a week or so.
Hope everyone is doing well! And leave me messages! I would like to know who's still alive and kickin'. Also feel free to leave messages if you have a) died, b) know someone that I know who has died, c) know if someone ELSE is pregnant, d) if YOU are pregnant, e) if you are eloping and want me to be your maid of honor, f) etc.
P.S. "Ice Age 2: The Meltdown" came out today and everyone should go and see it. I am. But only because of Scrat (the squirrel). He's hot.
