Finals Hell

Whoa Nelly! Here is a list of all that I have to accomplish in the next week:

*Write a paper
*Finish a physics assignment
*Study for a physics final
*Study for a biochem final
*Study for an ecology exam
*Study for an ecology final
*Finish a project in the lab
*Write a statement of purpose

Oh yeah, it is going to be a fun week!

My heart is broken into a million little pieces...my dear, beloved dog Kobe was put to sleep today. This whole weekend has been a blur of tears and uncertainty and grief and sorrow and heartache. My heart is just physically hurting. I hope my dear Kobe will now have some peace.

Poor Puppy!

My dear beloved Kobe has had a rough couple of months. Last night it all culminated in a sad scene when he couldn't even walk. We rushed him to the pet er and after 3 hours, he still wasn't any better. I sure hope the vets can help him.

Physics and Tape

I am studying for a physics test and watching this video is my favorite way to take a laugh-break. This won't make any sense to those of you who don't watch "Flight of the Conchords" so it's more for my own enjoyment. But, hopefully it might make you laugh, too.

About all I could stomach

This is why Bizarre Foods is my new favorite show: Cow-butt sandwiches, fresh donkey's milk, grilled cow intestine, cow utter, fresh lamb's blood pudding, and freshly-castrated cow testicles. I am known as somewhat of a foodie, but this is a little insane...getting a little too familiar with the animals if you know what I mean. (B, wish you were here to watch it with me!)

Piano Crushes

So I was really bored this afternoon, no book, no tv, no movie, no music, no conversation, no game, no nothin' could remove the boredom. And I was not about to give in to homework! I walked by my piano and something lured me to the keys. I started playing and playing. An hour later I woke up from a lovely piano-haze. Ah, I miss that feeling! It is so satisfying to create your own music. Granted, the piano-tuner hasn't been here for 3 years so the sound is a little off, but still, it was nice to play again. (Added bonus, playing the piano finally took my mind off of daydreaming about the boy I have a crush on. I forgot how annoying it is to have a crush when the other person has no clue that you even exist!)

All right, off to dinner and a movie.

This video is the mother-flippin' best. Thanks B!
