Itadakimasu!

For those of you who don't know, I'm secretly Japanese. Okay not really. That's why it's a secret. But I did take four years of Japanese in high school. That's right, I was practically fluent, and then I graduated and I haven't...

The Shame Game

I quit NaNoWriMo. It was killing my soul to do it and it's killing my soul not to do it, but I had to choose the path that would prevent me from causing physical harm to inanimate objects during Thanksgiving break. In a strange turn of events, I've...

On Boyfriends.

In light of PAWS's Missin' Your Mate event, I thought it would be fun to have a chat about my wonderful boyfriend, Curtis! Words can't describe how much I love this picture. This was taken when Curtis surprised me by coming to Indy for my...

Missin' Your Mate and NaNoWriMo

Yesterday was the PAWS event, Missin' Your Mate. WE HAD SO MANY PEOPLE SHOW UP! Yes it had to be in all caps. I was overwhelmed with the turnout! I think we had a great discussion despite my floundering. I've never led a discussion before, so...

Some of my own scattered thoughts just hours before this year's White Coat Ceremony for the Physician's Assistant 2012 class and Pharmacy 2013 class ! (It went well. I didn't have a fight on stage with my coat.) I have pictures that my dad...

Scholarship Breakfast

It's Wednesday! Time to post about the weekend! I was notified about a month ago that I was awarded the Loren and Sue Woerner Pharmacy Scholarship. I was aghast. I didn't know you could win a scholarship without actually applying for one. In fact...

The Great Pumpkin Slaughter of '09

Because we pharmacy kids get no social time whatsoever (HA! just look at all of the Facebook browsing in class!), Lindsey and Kelsey invited me over for pumpkin carving. Thankfully, Meijer labels things, otherwise I would have thought I was purchasing...

Music I listen to -- because you care!

Right now, I need to finish cleaning my room and putting away dishes and drinking the rest of my coffee so I can have energy to do so. Instead, I've decided to describe, at length, my musical tastes because I need to remember there is music outside...

The weekend can't come soon enough!

Today's entry will be a menagerie of topics that will change so fast it will BLOW YOUR MIND. Clusters: Round Two. Complete. I came out fully intact with the only casualties being some lack of sleep and a tiny bit of hurt pride. That just happens....

Clusters Part II: The Reckoning

8 AM today, I began my second set of clusters with some good, old pathophysiology. I know you're all absolutely enraptured with how us pharmacy students deal with having 4-5 (even 6?) tests at once. Let me explain. Traveling back in time, one would...

How to Make Studying Better

For those of us studying veterans, we know what it's like spending long hours parked in a chair with a screen or books in front of us. First, you start getting that tingling feeling in your derriere as your capillaries protest the chair you're...

Fall Broke

Get the title? Get it? It's like a pun. Past-tense for the sad realization that not only is it Monday, but clusters start Friday and will go until Tuesday. :( I had a great time at home! Despite my biochem's teachers best effort to convince us...

Leaves are Changing!

Time to talk about the weather! Don't you hate it when you're at a party and you're the person who doesn't know anybody--or even worse, you're at some neighborhood function and everyone still thinks you're 8 years old--and you...
