so i took off my glasses because my eyes are tired. so if there are typos in this, you know why. so today was a fun day. i got up what i consider ridiculously early (7:50) to read up on carboxylic acids and prepare for tutoring a kid at 9:15. tutoring is really strange for me; sometimes i'm on and good and thinking straight, but other times i just kind of spend a long time not getting anywhere. maybe it's because of how i was trained in orgo, or maybe this happens to everyone. don't know, but i feel like if people are paying you by the hour, you should come up with answers reasonably quickly. otherwise you waste their money. i feel like they should pay me by the question, or something. haha, then i'd only answer the ones i know... but today was good. which always makes me happy. it's nice to be competent at your job.
then off it was to chinese, where we got to listen to songs. including xi-shua-shua yesterday... which is basically a break-up song involving please give back the gifts i gave you, throw up the food i fed you, etc... i really like the 17 year old singer, whoever that was. can't remember, drats. i'm going to miss that class despite all the work and character memorization, and tomorrow's really the end. the END.
weird. maybe i'm just in a sentimental mood. i'm going to miss my prof in biochem too. he's so adorable and he was thanking us for our "participation" today, and just couldn't get the word right (he's german), so we sorta just interrupted him soon after that and clapped to save him the trouble of continuing.
and last day of LAB! 'nuff said. 'nuff reminds me of a dog. like gruff. wuff? woof.
and now, laundry.
oh wait, one other interesting thing... i realized that if i was sick in the hospital, i wouldn't actually want people to visit me. i was thinking about it, and how are you supposed to be nice to people and entertain them when you're sick and in pain and miserable? i feel like they should make a rule that people can only visit during recovery, like when you're actually getting better and feeling bored and really wishing that someone would bring you your favorite kind of chapstick (by the way, if i ever do end up in a hospital and you visit, bring me chapstick. please? there's always a drugstore right next to the hospital...).
but then, perhaps it's lonely in a hospital if you stay long enough, and the pain just becomes a constant monotone presence. and that's your existence. that would be sad.
