WHINEY WHINE WHINE

I gotta get off this "update once a week" nonsense. People are going to start to think I don't have anything interesting to say! *cough*

As you probably know by now, my life is saturated with p school again. Everyone said that third year was "a piece of cake" compared to the first two, and that "I'd love it." So far, I would have to say that everybody LIED!! Studying hasn't been as horrible sure, and Chemo is definitely over (thanks God), but now my time is pretty much spent studying for my weekly Therapeutics exam, and working on a seemingly endless pile of group assignments. I've discussed my burning hatred for group assignments before, so I won't indulge again now, but let me just say that I spend as much time working with a group on something as I do studying, and it sucks. I would almost prefer studying over it, because at least that doesn't require me to play well with others. >_<

In general, I feel like my third year of grad school has been like jumping through a series of flaming hoops at a circus. Just when you get through one without catching fire, they make you jump through another. And another. And another...

In other news, things just aren't turning on in my little world. For instance, my blow dryer. I have to push that damn "reset" button about a zillion times before it works. And my car! That one's a doosey. The other day I went to start it and when I turned the key... nothing happened at all. I turned it again, nothing. A third time, nothing. Fourth time is a charm! Started right up. Hasn't done it again yet, but I'm going to have my starter and ignition looked at before something truly terrible happens. Oh! And my computer with 1/2 of it's usual ram evokes MUCH forehead smacking!! NO, computer, I do NOT want you to close ALL of my browsers at once, especially if I only want to close the Word document! NO, I DON'T want to sit here for a half an hour while you open a puny PDF file! You lazy bastard!!

Oh man, so much complaining. It's a coping mechanism, I swear. Other things are going well! I get to go wine-tasting up north with Mike and his parents this weekend! :D Yay! I'll also get to enjoy a hot tub, and delicious, non-microwavable food which his parents will generously provide! :D OMG!

I think this is the first night in over three weeks that I've finished my homework before midnight. *takes a bow*
