I just realized that my dinner outing tomorrow could be construed as a date. I'd better not let that happen. No way, no how. How do I keep getting myself into these messes ( Read more... )

Ugh. If I liked weather like this, I would have stayed out East. Although that would add humidity as well. Still, ugh. Too hot to think. I've been downing water all day. I had to strip off two layers of my uniform on the walk home from class. I tried taking off my shoes, too, but the road burnt my soles after twelve or so steps, sending me ( Read more... )

I've been ridiculously busy due to my getting into that emergency medical technician course and not quitting my job yet, and deciding to apply to medical school again this year hasn't helped free up any time. Bullets it is. ( Verbose bullets. )

Today marks the start of the year I always thought would be the first best one. I expected, as a child, to have a good life. This is mostly due to a good upbringing and the positive outlook I've held for all but a few patches here and there over the years. I suppose I thought twenty-three sounded adult back then.

I win! I got my very own intern at work. Well, she's technically the lab's intern, but I'm teaching her all about my project and she's supposed to follow me around and learn things.

Frick. AMCAS just got my transcripts from the community college and state uni at which I took a few courses. Since they'd already received the one from my primary university, it's now all on me to finish my application. No more pretending I'm waiting on other people. (Although technically waiting on transcripts only means I sent my requests out ( Read more... )

Just posting to celebrate legal matters, I suppose ( Read more... )

We had our end of the season rugby party last night. Needless to say, I'm tired today. It was also the one-year anniversary for our sponsor pub, the Thirsty Lion, so they had eight bands and everyone got plastered. I shouldn't have, but it'd been a long time and I figured I might as well get it out of my system during a long weekend. They gave ( Read more... )

Since both my my advisers are on vacation (wtf why aren't your lives about meeeee?), I've turned to my nearest and also dearest regarding applying to medical school again next year. So far, all I've got are questions about which I must talk to the advisers and the overwhelming need to quit my job. Sadly, before I can quit, I must find out if I ( Read more... )
