Too busy to write?
Should we just cancel the blog!!?? Amanda, I know you have exams and need to procrastinate...
Anyhoo, what's new with everyone? I just finished up my last final yesterday - Organic Chemistry or, as I like to call it, Hell. It was the worst exam I've ever written in my life. I failed for sure. I was actually up at 1:30 in the morning last night obsessing about it and I had to leave the bed and go read on the couch until about 2:30 before I could get back to sleep. I feel like I didn't know how to do ANYTHING. It was crazy given that I've spent my entire semester staying on top of the course material so well. It all seems like a waste now. I'm sure I failed. I only needed 28% on the final to pass the course and that's even in question!! HORRIBLE. On that note, good luck on the rest of your finals, Manda.
In other news, Remi and I went to see Body Worlds yesterday. It was very interesting, but, since we're science nerds, we found it lacking in some areas. I found myself wishing that the sagittal sections were better labeled - am I a freakin' nerd or what?? All in all though it was AWESOME. It's very neat how everything has been preserved and how you can see many different aspects and features depending on how the bodies were dissected and displayed. I defintely recommend it.
Today we went for a hike down by the ocean. It's the first time since we've been here that we've found a decent ocean walk. I really reminded me of Nanaimo and the walks along the seashore there. Lots of arbutus trees (which I ADORE).
That's one of the pictures from today. It was also sunny, which is really nice. It's also really nice to be able to sit here typing and not worry about studying for finals!! What a freakin' relief!
Anyway, I'll leave you with a few pictures and the hope that at least one of you will post soon! By the way, thanks for the Xmas E-card, Sue!
Later gators :)

I have absolutely no excuse for not posting. I'm just a bum, slacker, useless, whatever. But it's not as if I have forgotten about it. No, no. In fact, every now and then I think to myself, "this is something I should post on the blog." But, instead, I don't. For shame.
Anyway, I wanted to mention that I have seen job postings for working certain parts of the Body Worlds exhibit at the science museum in Boston. I'm tempted to apply, but they're all part-time temp positions, and living in Boston is hellaciously expensive. But it's a thought.
Also, what is that in the pic of the water? Otter? Seal? Log?
Weird, the tv just turned on... and I'm home alone. I'd better go investigate.
Oh, and I'm sure you actually did fine on your organic final, Sarah. If you have been keeping up with it all semester, then I'm sure you did the correct things, or at least 28% worth. And congrats on finishing your first semester of pharmacy school!
I LOVE your optimism Kat! And as for Body Worlds... I don't know how interesting it would be to work there. The two employees I heard talking sounded like dumbasses, so I guess you could brain up the place a little. As for the picture, it's bull kelp - Remi's favourite ;)
