~ Life is soooooo busy! I don't like it. Even though my class load is lighter, I've managed to fill what would be great chunks of study time with random meetings and catching up with people. I've never done well with small intervals of studying, and it's already showing in this first round of testing. Well, Pharmacology went ok (88), but Chemo was ridiculous and I know it went terribly wrong even though I didn't get the test back yet. But that was a hard one for everybody. And Med Chem is on Friday, and I'm waaaaaaaay behind on that one, for sure. I have this terrible combo of depression & ADD that just makes my life suck really bad.....who wants to switch personalities with me? Anyone...?
~ Riley went to the vet cuz he was limping, but I think he'll be ok now. They just gave him a shot of Cortisone in his shoulder and said he'd be fine. My poor baby, I miss him. Plus animals are so comforting to me, and these fish are just not doing the trick.
~ I'm kinda excited to be going to the Michigan Pharmacists Association convention in a couple weeks! It'll be interesting to finally do something pharmacy-related that doesn't involve going to class. I need to see more of what's out there in the profession, because the academic part just makes me want to shoot my brains out. There will be continuing education presentations that I just get to sit and listen to (and not take notes/tests on!!!), and there will be social stuff for the different schools of pharmacy, and really nice meals! And time to bond with some classmates that I don't know very well. So yeah, should be a good time.
~ This whole 1 test per week thing is good and bad. Good because then it gives a certain focus each week and I don't feel like I'm sacrificing study time for one test in order to study for the second. But it's bad because then every weekend is catch-up and get started on the next test's studying. Not enough time to completely relax, and definitely not enough time to go home, and I really miss home.
~ Speaking of busy weekends, this one will be crazy! MJ is coming to visit on Friday and I'm super excited cuz I haven't seen her in awhile. Hopefully I can keep her entertained in this dinky town of Big Rapids. We'll see. lol. And I have a bunch of non-Valentine's type plans with the girls to keep me occupied on Saturday. I'm just worried, once again, about study time. Story of my life.
~ I need professional help. No lie. But I've been so good at avoiding it so far. And even though I'm a pharm student, I'm terrified of the prospect of being on a drug for the rest of my life. Not cool with me. At all. I've always wanted to be able to fix it myself, and I've also prayed about it (but rarely, so I guess I could improve there too).....so I guess being drugged hasn't been an appealing option. But I should really go to the Counseling Center. Maybe. But I don't wanna, especially when ppl keep trying to talk me into it. Grrr, I dunno. Maybe I'll think more about it when I actually have the time.
Sleep now. Must study hardcore tomorrow. Buh bye.
