Valentine's Day
Having two midterms on the 15th, I spent my whole Valentine’s Day hitting the books. At about 9 o’clock, my lovely boyfriend walked in the door with a box of my favourite chocolates. Being totally stressed out and surprised, I cried at the site of him. Lame, I know.
The small things, like a box of chocolates and a few words of love and encouragement are the things he does that I...
Things to do before reading week:
-4 midterms
-1 quiz
-1 assignment
-3 meetings for group projects
-4 shifts at SBUX
-Breathe and don’t let the stress take over
Weird Day
- the man I sat beside on the bus this morning was wearing a medical mask.
- the girl sitting infront of me in psych was on a website titled, “how to ask for oral sex”
-a girl in my anatomy class showed up in bright star pyjamas for a 1-2:30 class

So excited!

Assigned groups
My environment and health prof divided the class into groups for a research paper. Amusingly, some A-type-medschool-wannabes lost their shit. They demanded that they be able to make their own groups, because they don’t feel comfortable working with people they don’t know etc. They berated the prof until he gave in.
OH LIFE...
Last sleep in day: Jan 14th
Next sleep in day: Jan 28th
Damn, this is going to be a long two weeks of 4:30-6:30 am wake ups. Mondays are my only solace with a wake up at 7:30!
Note to Self:
Full year courses do not allow for the carefree first week of the semester you oh so love. Avoid them if you can.
TIPS!
I’ve been saving my SBUX tips since July. I counted them today and I have saved up 609 dollars! This money is going towards the cost of a trip. Now, It’s just a matter of choosing between the Dominican or Vienna.

Awkward moment of the day
I went to the doctor today and had my yearly checkup. While the doc was giving me my breast exam she started lecturing me on wearing sunscreen in winter, condom use, and not drinking and driving over the holidays etc. What a strange lady…
Foxit
For those of you who are stuck studying and use powerpoints/PDFs for classes, I recommend you download foxit. This program allows you to highlight text, make notes on slides, replace text etc. This program has really helped me, so I thought I should share!

I’m sorry if this comes off as mean or rude or anything, but I actually cannot stand when people talk about their weight or how they look. I used to be so happy with the way that I looked, now I feel like shit. I listen to the most beautiful people I know complain about the way that they look, or…

Two Steps Forward, One Step Back
I’ve had this wicked cold for the last week and a half. Instead of the usual sleep+meds+time=feeling fine, my body seems to be shuffling randomly from feeling awful to feeling fine. This needs to end, I have midterms/assignments next week and I need to be at full health to get through it all!
