random babble from yours truly

i think the title sums it up pretty well.

so! i got over my GPA-induced depression and went to the mall.

3 dresses and 1 tunic top later, I'm feeling much better. =)

Unfortunately, I didn't find a pair of boots or heels for work. seriously, since when did it become so hard to buy a pair of new shoes?

well, this is a first. i need to go to the mall but i'm too lazy to get my $hit together and head out. *sigh* and i really do need a new pair of shoes for work because stupid me bought a crap load of ballet flats to wear to work but the weather has not been conducive to wearing ballet flats.

anyhow! i need to vent. i already vented today to my professor but i still need to vent. it's been a long and frustrating week. scratch that. this quarter has just been long and painful and honestly, after finding out that half of my class had a copy of the med chem final BEFORE the final, i feel like there's just no point in studying anymore. i can't compete with people who have answers to the exam before the exam- there's just no way. and while i know i've done my hardest this quarter to stay on top of everything, i still feel like i've let myself down.

i don't know. stress is a terrible thing. my shoulder has been acting up and i'm almost positive finals are to blame. and my eating has been all over the place too, although tonight i hope to be a little healther (soup and salad is the plan.)

anyhow! i probably should get going and try to run some errands. what a crappy, crappy, week. i keep hoping that something good will happen (perhaps acing all my finals?), to make it all better, but i'm not holding my breath anymore.

well, hopefully some quality time at the Gap and Banana Republic will do the trick.

blog later.
me.

96-95!?!?!? are you kidding me!?!?

oh my gosh... i don't know if i can handle two losses to unranked teams on top of finals.

i love how i slaved away at the library for 5 hours on sunday studying for my pharmacology final only to miss getting an A in the class by 2 questions!

and then there's me and APC... the final that I started studying for while watching a Gossip Girl rerun and then stopped studying for so I could give my undivided attention to Medium. And what is the result for that class? I scraped by and got my A.

So! the way I see it... the more I watch TV, the better I do on my finals. Let's hope the formula works for my med chem final that I just took (mind you, I decided to watch all of American Idol last night instead of study. =)

yes folks, I am embracing the slacker within.

the next final is in 9 hours and what am i doing instead of studying?
deleting old e-mails from my ex-boyfriend.

i think i've taken my procrastination to a new level now....

1 down, 4 to go.

i have done NOTHING today. honestly, I am finding new ways to avoid studying despite the fact that umm... the GPA this quarter... ain't so hot.

Well, part of my brain is retaining some information regarding the synthesis and structural junk i need to know with regards to thyroid hormones.... and how to dose insulin.

on the bright side, no zocor for me! yay! LDL and TG levels weren't hot but who knew lil ol me had so much HDL in her! yay! that's 1 less risk factor to worry about... =)

i need to study....and stop eating junk food. gosh, i hate finals. cannot WAIT till Friday.

Current plan for Friday after work: a trip to Oak Brook Shopping Center to return some stuff and then a trip to by Cheesecake Factory to pick up a "yay for surviving the worst quarter in pharmacy school EVER" treat.

finals. good times i tell ya, good times.

shoot me now... please.

8 hours until the 1st final. i don't know if i'm going to make it to friday. no joke.

oh gosh... just thinking of the various beatings i'm going to take this week make my head hurt.

well folks, wish me luck. actually, scratch that. pray for me. luck isn't going to help me at all- i'm going to need a miracle.

my head is ready to explode.

i seriously HATE finals.

to keep me going, here is a list of things i hope to accomplish over my "spring break":
- organize my closet and put away all my clean clothes.
- work LESS than 30 hours.
- go to the symphony and Art Institute
- eat somewhere fabulous
- get my tax stuff ready
- buy myself something pretty (either a new pair of heels or a purse.)
- have a midori sour
- sleep in at least 3 out of the 9 days
- watch Sex & the City while drinking my moscato
- trek up to Madison (i really don't want to do this though.)

oh my gosh, I SO want to be done with this quarter.... gosh I hate finals.
