I finished school for the summer and I'm pretty relieved. This past semester was pretty brutal and I had multiple breakdowns complete with thoughts of self-doubt but I got through it. I got my marks back today and I was a bit disappointed but overall I'm happy with the outcome. I learned that it's a bad idea to try to learn a language along with trying to learn statistics, genetics and cell biology. I am taking two on-line classes, psych and ecology, through the summer because I just can't get enough of school >.< haha... I'm also writing the MCAT at the end of the summer, which is the standardized medical application test for all med students, and I need to study my ass off for that so I'm pretty sure that's what I'm going to spend the month of August doing.

My plans for this summer consist of going to LA in June, the convention and hopefully I have time to do some camping because I'm also working two jobs, one being at the veterinary emergency clinic with a doctor who is also a professor at my school. I haven't actually met him yet so I've been considering taking out my lip ring before I start with him because I want to make a really good impression and he could be a really good referral for when I apply to vet school. Although it sucks, I know that some people don't take me seriously because I have facial piercings and it's hard enough to get in to vet school as it is so I really don't want to make it that much harder for myself. Decisions decisions...

Not much else is new. The Raptors played an amazing game last night and it was really fun to watch. They're trailing in the series 1-2 but I think they can win tomorrow. I dyed my hair last month but I didn't have any time to post a picture so here is one now:

Sooo tired. I have been studying non-stop today and my brain decided that it had enough. I'm really hoping to coax it into taking in a bit more info tonight by resting for a bit and eating food. I have a cell biology exam tomorrow that's worth 60% of my mark so I'm a bit stressed but hopefully I can feel confident by the end of the night and be able to chill tomorrow morning.

I turned 26 yesterday and my bf surprised me with Raptors tickets. The game was so much fun and I got drunk off of one beer because I was so burnt from being in the library all day but I kind of appreciated that since the beer was $10.

Anyway, I need to go finish my spaghetti and shower. I promise a lengthy, rambling update next week after I am done all my exams.
