Ok, not really. But I have this approximately four inch long bruise tracing a vein on my elbow that is getting more and more nasty looking as the days pass. V_V The sacrifices I've made to go to medical school! Read: getting blood drawn so titers can be run for MMR and varicella. Unfortunately me trying to look cute and claim innocently that I really, really did remember having chicken pox wasn't quite enough to free me from SGU's annoying 'we must have titers, immunization records aren't enough' policy. *sigh* Luckily for me it didn't hurt when the girl who drew my blood (obviously in hindsight) punctured through the vein multiple times. *grin* No wonder she gave me a strange look when I complemented her draw. She probably knew that she screwed it up. Hmph. Although, maybe it did hurt and I just didn't notice since I was too busy trying to act cool and unconcerned while cranking my ipod up so loud that I didn't hear her tell me I could stop squeezing the ball like a maniac. If you haven't picked up on this so far I really really don't like having my blood drawn. Causes me stress. I'm planning on skipping that day of medical school. I wonder if I can get away with that?
Oh man. I've now done what I never should have done. Used my blog to whine about things that people around me are sick of hearing about.
Me: "Look at my bruise! It's getting worse!" *points to bruise*
Others: "Yes, it will get darker before it goes away." <--poorly suppressing obvious annoyance at my total and complete state of whimpy-ness Hmm. Oh well. It's not like I'm actually forcing anyone to read this. And probably no one is reading it anyways. hehe Please refer to below Pearls Before Swine comic. I'm pretty amazed at how fast the days until I leave for Grenada are slipping by. And how much less I'm caring about things here and shifting more and more towards thinking about medical school. All of a sudden the priority of the day is getting to the post office so I can mail something to Bay Shore whereas just a not so short time ago I was on a completely different plane of thought. Oh! I found out my roommate information! I've contacted her and I'm relieved to say that she seems very nice. I'm looking forward to meeting my new cell mate, er, roommate. But seriously, have you seen pictures of the dorms we'll be living in?? Ok, you probably haven't. But they can be summed up as follows: postage stamp.
So having a amiable roommate seems to be fairly essential to not going stark raving mad while studying 26 hours a day. No I haven't lost it - I've just been watching too much DS9 lately. ^_^
