Just Like the Good Ol' Days
My mom is on a cruise, my dad is out at the farm, and I am home with my cat. It feels just like when I was in PA, except everyone comes back in a week. I was looking forward to this week alone- to have the house to myself without any bickering or intrusion of space, but the quite house is a bit creepy- at least when I was in an apartment it didn't echo. It isn't all that bad...and truth be told, I will probably feel a bit of a dip in the happiness factor when the folks return- but thank goodness I have school to go to or else this anti-human environment would suck. Of course, that means that school is the highlight of my day...or does it? I guess it just means that the bit of time I am at school balances out the rest of my day. I am certainly getting much work done...I have case studies to write and tests and quizzes to study for...I totally meant to start studying for my 70 muscle + insertion/origin + function test next week as SEVENTY is a BIG number (except it really is 70 x 4 = 280, since I need to remember all that other junk)- I don't mind identification, but it really it is only straight memory, so there is no flubbing your way through a process or an essay.
Yesterday being Veteran's Day, we had no school and I split the time between playing board games (LIFE! and SCRABBLE!) with Brit and her loverly cat Mittens and preparing a case study (and STUDYING...that never ends). Sunday I spent from 8pm-11pm at Dunkin Donuts with a group of students and my Microbiology tutor trying to study for my immunology exam next week. The place was boiling hot and had the overpowering sickly sweet scent of dounuts and icecream was very dense...eventually, everyone at my table got something from the menu and even went out to the gas station down the street to pick up some energy drinks (the one dude also got fun'uions) except for me...I resisted-- plus if I would have had anything I think I would have disappeared because my insides would have become as sweet as the outside and I would have faded into the background.
I really wish I could rewind the clock and spend more time on A&P but I guess I will just have to work over time during the week to memorize all the stuff I need. This does not mean I can shirk my duties in house cleaning- Thanksgiving around the corner, I was charged with cleaning the entire house while the folks are away...heh...yeeaaaaahhhh....we shall see how that goes. What fun!
When it all boils down to it, an empty house means that you can dance to you favorite music in your underwear, and as along as the blinds are drawn, you can really rock it out without any chance of someone else ruining the fun!
Here is to all you dancing freaks! Oww! Sexy, sexy!
