Ha, irony
It's finals week. I'm probably going to fail/get at least a B on at least one final. I should be cramming. What am I doing, you ask? Why, obviously I'm writing an entry for my blog! What a silly question.
I decided that I'm going to try for a BTS minor, and chat with my mom about the possibility of staying an extra year (hmmmm) to get the major. What is the practical reason for this? Um, there is none. I just really want to take more BTS classes. Really.
Yeah, I know, I know, I said I wouldn't overload myself next year. I think I have a mental condition or something. Is perfectionism a disorder? How about obsessive overworking? If I'm such a perfectionist, why am I blowing off studying for my finals? Hmmm, that's a good question. Maybe I'm a selective perfectionist. Or it comes and goes, like chronic bronchitis. Yeah, that must be it. Right.
This whole BTS thing is making we want to settle for the BA in bio again, instead of cramming in O Chem and physics to finish out the BS. Am I just being lazy? I know what I want to do with my life, and I think I need a BS to do it. Is that true? Dr. Doan thinks so. I don't know. I would very much like to feel relaxed and secure about my grad school chances, but I'm not. Dr. Doan told me (basically) that I don't have a chance if my science GPA is 3.0, which it is. Funny--I have a straight 3.0 in all science classes and a straight 4.0 in all non-science classes. So it evens out to about 3.5, but grad schools are going to see right through that facade. Oh, the pressure. I just try not to think about it.
I got my nose pierced, and I think my mom is going to be rather ticked. My little sister just got her bellybutton pierced and she was SO MAD. But she did that right after mom told her not to, and I just didn't bother to ask. I'm freaking 20 years old, for heaven's sake. But no, no, I'm still financially dependant on her. And plus I should respect her wishes. But maybe she'll think it's cute... I'm hoping, anyway.
Katie graduates this week. Crap, I should get her a gift. And she's getting married (???) this summer, which will be exciting. Love is in the air. Well, ok, not my air. Other people's air. I'm breathing secondhand love.
Well, back to the old anat/phys book. Hurrah.
