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%......

headache: day 5

so I'm now on day 5 of a headache... it was a migraine over the weekend... it's not now, it's just a headache.. but it still fucking hurts! I've taken what the doctor recommended... 2 extra strength tylenol and 2 extra strength advil... hasn't really done anything. Is it too much to ask to go just ONE FUCKING DAY without pain? it's even affecting my school ... I can't study cuz I always have a headache. Thankfully I have only three and a half weeks left until this term is over. I don't even care how well I do in this course anymore.... I'm fucking done. I just wanna pass and be done with it. Cheers all!

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...
