QotD: If I Were a Teacher...

  • 1 comment

If you had to teach something, what would you teach?


I would teach biopsychology. It is my absolute favorite subject that I have taken in school.

Back to school

  • Jan 29, 2009
  • 1 comment

So school has started again. This is my last semester before I graduate but I still won't technically be done with school since I still have to go back to school to finish up some classes that are requirements for the application for the physicians assistant programs. Yet I don't even know anymore if I am going to be able to get into a PA program since my grades have been pretty sucky in the classes that determine if I can get in or not. This is my make or break semester since it determines if I give up or not. Lets see what happens.

New book

  • Dec 29, 2008
  • 6 comments

This was the first Christmas in a while that I did not get a book as a present. Which was a good thing in some ways because I have a stack of books in my bedside table waiting to be read. I just finished a book last night that I found really hard to get into at first but the ending just made me absolutely love the entire book. I found it to be really wordy and it had tons of words that I had no idea what they meant but if you could get past that it was really good. The book was We Need to Talk About Kevin.

We Need to Talk About Kevin: A Novel (P.S.)
We Need to Talk About Kevin: A Novel (P.S.)
Lionel Shriver
 
The book was basically a series of letters that a wife is writing to her husband about her son that shoots a bunch of students at his school. I found the whole psychology thing behind what was wrong with him and possibly why he did it to be very interesting.The ending had me crying for a good half an hour.

I just bought a new book by one of my absolute favorite authors Wally Lamb called The Hour I First Believed which also has references to the Columbine school shootings (I find the subject to be fascinating). I didn't even read the description of the book before I bought it because I have devoured all of Lamb's other books. I had no idea that he even came out with a new book. So I am starting this book tonight!

Ahh I didn't do so well this semester. I can;t believe I got a C+ in bio lab. I did so well on the first test and on all of the labs I just failed the final. But come on! It totally dragged down my whole GPA. I was working so hard on trying to get my overall GPA up to a 3.5 but now its dropped to a 3.4. Great. And my science GPA has to be about a 3.0 which I doubt it is anymore. Super!

lonely

  • Dec 27, 2008

I feel lonely. I'm staying at the house of the family that I babysit for to watch their dog until Monday and I'm all alone. It makes me so depressed feeling. I don't like being the only person in the house. I have no idea how I am going to live by myself when the time comes.

16 Things About Me

  • Dec 26, 2008
  • Post a comment

This was originally done on my facebook page where you tag all of your friends so that they write the 16 things about themselves too but I decided to post it here too.
1. I am awkward in social situations. I am just not a great conversation starter so I always end up that person who smiles and nods at polite parts but I really want to participate in the conversation I just don't always know the right thing to say.
2. I have this need to read all the great "classics" even though there is no authority figure that is going to commend me for doing so. I guess this is why I have a copy of Atlas Shrugged that I have yet to read but I will eventually!
3. In my next life I want to come back as a cat in a loving home. Cats seriously have it the best. They sleep all day and do absolutely nothing and they just get pet all the time. How great is that?
4. I like really graphic murder stuff like books and movies. Like the book American Psycho. I have no idea why though.
5. I like to drink but have yet to actually be "wasted" and I am 21 years old.
6. I'm such a little kid at heart...I still watch Nickelodeon, especially Spongebob
7. I'm a hypocrite...I used to hate Uggs and sweater vests and now I own and wear both of them.
8. I absolutely love the smell of cinnamon.
9. I have fibromyalgia
10. I'm scared I'm going to be a lonely cat lady when I get older.
11. I absolutely love learning new things. I wanted to be a professional student but unfortunately that wouldn't work out.
12. I learn so many new things but for some reason they don't stick in my brain. I have a horrible memory for facts. I'm petrified that this is an early sign of Alzheimers
13. I used to be a hypochondriac
14. I collect "genie bottle" perfume bottles. My dad gets me one every year for Christmas.
15. I only have a couple of friends and don't find anything wrong with that.
16. My favorite number is four.
