I get to spend ten weeks of this summer in Chicago doing RESEARCH on DIABETES! Woo! It is going to be so wonderful. I can't wait. Can I get through to the summer? CAN I MAKE IT THROUGH THESE LAST FEW MONTHS???
In other news, my skin is slightly less pale than it was before, but I am still quite pale. I blame the rain, the clouds, and my incessant restlessness that makes it impossible for me to just SIT STILL AND TAN. So yeah. No sunburns, though, which is good.
The dentist told me my gums are better, and they didn't mention anything else about gingivitis or gum disease, so I'm in the clear! I mean, honestly. How can I have bad teeth and gums? I mean, I brush my teeth twice a day and it's not like I'm smoking or eating lots of candy or anything. How come I'm the one to get threatened with gingivitis? Boo.
The only schoolwork I got done was catching up (only halfway) on the readings for my government class, which is the least important class right now. I can't win with myself. There is part of me that is all gung-ho and wants to get everything done in advance so that I can maybe not always feel like there is a boulder crushing me into the ground. But then there is another part of me that thinks of all these great movies I should watch, or some new TV show that looks promising, or some sort of fun reading to do. And that part somehow keeps winning out. And it is telling the productive, studious part of me to just go away.
But I hope to change this.
