Pre Neuro Exam 3 Thoughts

I can't believe it's May 3rd!!
How did that happen?!



I love summer!!
look at these cute pots my friend has collected!

Some notes on my love life or lack there of?

#1) Brocoli= 1) a small, green, tree-like vegetable 2) a silly boy with a shaved head who kinda looks like broccoli and is liked by some in an analogous way to how some people like the vegetable...

#2) I like him and he's a really great guy (i should really like him) but I'm just not head over heels for him...which is what i want...but i like hanging out with him
...we're both happy with how things are now.

#3) I've been studying with him alot ...it's just been fun hanging out with him and making fun of each other....but when I get tired (like around 11pm last night after studying for some 12 hours), I wish he could read my mind when I think this would be so much easier/ cooler if you just liked me. if you just kissed me while we're all alone in this lecture hall, sitting close to each other while we talk about hypothalamic connections....

for the past week I had trouble dealing with being bored right now but then I realized maybe it's better than I'm not dating that much right now because if I was close to someone it would make the summer hard...San Antonio for June, Ecuador for June-July, and back to SA until mid-August...thats about 10 or 11 weeks of vac-a!
All I know is i'm going to miss my roomies sooo much! We are definetly going to have to meet in Austin sometime over the summer!

When life gives you oranges...

"So it's been decided that boys are silly & we're all going to fail our next neuro exam. Epp!"... that was my/my roomies mentality a couple of days ago.... today i/ we are doing better.

Neuro has been rough. Mainly because we have a test ever 2 weeks (from mid-March to the end of May), and somehow nobody got nearly enough studying done this weekend....in other news:

Samir and I had our last salsa class last night! sad! We did learn three new moves called "the naughty", "the high step", and something where he lifts me completely off the ground!! it was quite fun and yes, everyone giggled at seeing and then practicing "the naughty" in class (actually a quick and easy move but looks intense and um close haha). But i'm soo glad we took that class! it was sooo fun & helped me to keep my sanity, to remember that i am more than just a medical student. it also made me relax in the rest of my life since in salsa all the woman can do is follow...it has helped me to live in the moment and not always think about whats next.


Theeen, around 11pm I went to cheer on Giulia at our coed intramural soccer game. A bunch of the m2s came out with signs & we had a lot of fun (even though they lost (as did the spurs :( ))



Happy things:
seeing horses eating hay in the morning
ibuprofen
roommates
cookies and cream ice cream
"snook"

post neuro exam 2

I'm going to be sneaking away this Thursday...i am quite excited to be studying on the beach on Friday...



Today (Wed), everyone woke up with allergies! It's so sad! Ben and Mike are nearly drowning but when I spilled tea on my computer Ben gave me some of his towels (tissues) to clean it up! so nice. So I got him some real tissues hahaha

I am quite excited because I just found out I can apply for funds from my medical school to support my trip to Ecuador this summer...yay! (fingers crossed and praying bc that would be awesome!)

I've realized pretty recently that I have been moving waaay fast over the last year. Through major events and people alike. So I told myself to just slow down and live in the moment. Not to be constantly planning what's next but just be happy in now. ...that's going well so far :)
Also, I've realized that I have matured a lot over the past year especially in how I view men and relationships. Interesting stuff.

...oh and by the way, as soon as a girl stops trying, it seems that boys start coming around...not in any strong way but let's just say hugs are nice.
