just keep studying, studying, studying.... (sorry... channeling Dora from Finding Nemo)... obviously I'm starting to lose my mind (if you can't tell) I blame the ochem.... seriously. I'm so fucking done. Two more weeks and I have: -a midterm -a prelab -a 2pt lab -a lab report -an assignment -a final all in TWO WEEKS! *faints* I`ve done up summary sheets for the 3 chapters that we`ve studied the past 2 weeks.... (correction: I have 3 more rxns to be done) .... but it`s up to 6 pages DOUBLE SIDED.... all of which I have to KNOW by Thursday. yeah.. so not gonna happen. fuck balls. I`m hitting a real low... because I know my grade isn`t going to be as good for this term as it was for last term (A- in case you forgot)... but so far I`m at a 70% in the lab (30% of grade), 80% on the first midterm and 50% on the second midterm (both are worth 10% each of the total grade).... I have one more midterm worth 10%, an assignment worth 5% and a final worth 30%......

a small reprive

ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.... I can breathe again!  ..well I guess technically I could always breathe, cuz if I didn't.. I'd be all dead n stuff.. Anyhow... thanks to the amazing advice of yougotsars .... I'm feeling SO much better today... and ready to study my ladyballs off for the rest of the term so that I can kick ass on the 3rd midterm and the final.... and get a good grade in Ochem II ... then I can lay back and be a lazy bastard for the rest of the summer! I think that sounds like a plan, don't you? *happy dance* SO what have the rest of you been doing this summer? DO share.. I need to live vicariously through you cuz I've spent my summer with my nose in my textbook. Anyhow... hope whatever you're doing you're having a good time. xoxo!

so very much pain

how are you everyone? Did you have a good weekend? Was it fun?  good!  cuz mine wasn't. I spent the better part of my weekend in horrid pain from a migraine... to the point that I actually went to the clinic on Saturday because it was SO bad. The doctor prescribed me Immitrex (or whatever that generic brand is)... I took one and started to feel better.... 2 hours later I took another one and felt ok. Sunday I had planned to go see a matinee of Dark Knight Rises.... but at 11am (after we had bought tix online) ... I had a (worse than before) migraine again. After 24 hours I took another Immitrex ... but to no avail.... so I ended up in the hospital. Due to a family history of aneurysms and the fact that my headaches come on strong with no warning, the doc sent me for a CT and also wanted to do a lumbar puncture. The CT came back clear but he still wanted to do a lumbar puncture.  Let's think about this.. big needle in my spine? Possibility of a head...

cuz my brain isn't fully functional right now

I totally fucking forgot to write about myself yesterday when I was given a blog award... (read about it here ). SO ... I'm supposed to talk about myself. well... shit. OK then... if I have to do this, you're coming along with me... no... don't try to run away now.. I've got you in my clutches. mwah ha ha ha ha ok so pay attention.. you'll be tested on it later (sidenote: my dad used to say that ALL the time when I was a kid and I just remembered.. what a pleasant memory.. I remember him always saying that about random things, but there was never any test.. I love my dad) Welllllllllllll.... I'm a chemistry student at the University of British Columbia but this is actually the first time I'm studying post secondary education in my home country.. .I've done all my other post secondary education in the US. I am TERRIFIED of bugs... like.. all kinds of bugs.. I may have even tried jumping out of a moving vehicle one time when a bug la...

with my impending new schedule, I'm debating on making this a new segment.. we'll see how it goes. I'm not sure how I feel about it exactly, as it tends to be more negative and I'm trying to work on NOT being so negative. We'll see. I'm not feeling today, so for now... I'm going with it. THINGS I HATE MONDAYS Headaches - I really hate headaches.. and I HATE that I get them 2-3 times a week. I'm so very sick of feeling sick and not feeling like doing anything cuz I have another headache. I hate that I have to take pills and I REALLY hate that the pills don't seem to do a damn thing to help my headaches. I hate that I've just probably taken too many pills over the years to render them ineffective. I hate that my headaches make me a grouchy, bitchy, overall nasty person to be around and generally last for an entire day. Being an Adult - seriously... why were we all so eager to grow up? What good comes from growing up? You have TONS of r...
