So.

When I get stressed out, sometimes, I unhinge my jaw. Not intentionally - it just unhinges. Then it hurts pretty bad - then I have trouble eating, because I can't really open my mouth too wide.

Yesh, i mean now.

Joey gave me her shirt - I really like it! Thanks!

In class right now, very boring. I really wish I just got a coffee and came in late instead. I've had to stifle a yawn every 5 minutes, and right now I'd really like to just curl up on the desk and fall asleep. I'm so over school.

Excited about Alvin Ailey on Wed.!

Looking in the mirror this morning...

I realized that I'm fucked.

I.

had.

The.

MOST.

TERRIFYING

NIGHTMARE IN THE WORLD.

The worst of it is that it was true at one point in my life.

----

Anyway, I'm just really stressed with school since I've been procrastinating like no other this year. It's very unlike me and kinda bizarre, actually. I finished a 6 page paper last night and am in the process of writing another 1 page paper (ok it's nothing), both due in, oh 40 minutes.

And I'm WRITING IN MY BLOG! WHICH ON ONE READS!

I truly truly truly am so lazy. It's so weird because back when I was stressed out about med school and needing to get good grades, I was so on top of my shit. I'd get everything done like at least 3 days ahead of time, and start studying for a midterm at LEAST a week in advance.

I have a midterm tomorrow that I haven't even started studying for.

Anyway, that's boring. Life's going well. I can't wait to graduate sometimes, but sometimes I really don't ever want to leave.


EDIT:

What a spazzy spaz spaz. Weirdo.

Sometimes I wonder if zits can boil over and explode with the unbridled fury of 1000 volcanoes.

Adventuras en mi clase!!!

Translation:

Teacher: So what's everyone doing for valentine's day? I'm going to a red light party, can someone tell me what that is? Jenny?

Me: It's um... well, when the light is red, the car stops and umm...

Teacher: Very good, Jenny, but I meant a red light PARTY.

New Format! How exciting.

I decided that I'll mostly post funny/embarrassing stories instead. They're more fun.

From my away message:

Me in spanish class today:

Background: We were supposed to unscramble sentences in spanish.
And I was first.

TranslatioN!
Prof: Jenny?
Me: Um, restaurant does reservation have to?
Prof: Um, unscramble it.
Me: (silence)
(silence)
(SILENCE)
Me: Lo siento.

So.

2 things:

First, my GSI for MCB 165 is hiLARious. For some reason, not many people found her funny, so maybe it's just me.

"Okay, so there has to be another way to increase receptors on the synaptic surface right? Alternatives are good. Ok, well, i don't mean to give you guys relationship advice, but I just want to say, that if your partner gives you an ultimatum, NUH UH, that's BAD. Because that means they're not flexible, and they'll make your life totally miserable. So. Yeah, alternatives are good. Anyway..."

And:

"And here's a glial cell, so what is it doing here? Well, God has plans for everyone..."

And:

"Sometimes, when we pray, it feels good, like if you're christian, and you're praying... Not that there's anything wrong with praying. Praying is good. I'm a Christian myself."

---

Other than that, I had a totally bizarre dream.

I was in my spanish class, and everyone was speaking spanish. But I shall write this in English anyways. Our prof asked "So, if you can grow a field of ANYTHING, what would you grow?"

Guy 1 says "I would grow a field of money, so I would be rich."

Girl 1 says "I would grow a field of flowers, because flowers are pretty."

All this time, our prof seems unimpressed.

Then me: "I would grow a field of rice, to feed ALL the hungry children in the world."

Then my prof gave me a standing ovation and was like "See? See this person? This is the type of person we want in this world. The rest of you? WORTHLESS! Wow. Just wow."

Yeah........ WEIRD.

EDIT: I cut out the emo. Pardon the mess.


let's see, I think I've been sleeping weird on my side so my left side is numb every morning I wake up. It kinda sucks.

I really really want to watch Fox and the Hound, but I don't think anyone actually wants to suffer through that with me.


I'm really excited about this semester, but I'm also sad that it's over. Life is good.

I have a terrible and irrational fear that no one likes me. AHHHHH!

Insecuuuuure.

Wooooooo

you know what's weird. I like these really horrible Gwen Stefani songs now.

Dance dance dance shame.

Quick post before sleeping:
so happy. This is who I've always wanted to be. This is where i've always wanted to be. Everything is right. I'm glad. I've finally got to do all (ok, most) of what I've wanted out of college.

Let's end this semester good, people.

Hmmm...

no posting in a while. I think this is the first time I didn't post for this long on this blog. Anyway, break's been really really good, hence the absence. I think I really needed the break from the topsy-turvy-ness that was my fall 2006 semester.

Anyway, I had a lot of downtime, and as I had promised myself, I played lots of FF XII and watched season 1 of HOUSE (though the last DVD broke. It made me so sad, so I have to see it when I get back to school).

Hung out with friends, visited Joey in San Diego and she visited me up in PV. Ummm went to Hollywood a few times, once for clubbing and once for touristy things. And then we went to a hat shop! My head's too big for hats.

Visited family, saw people and went and did things, etc etc.

I think the highlight of my vacation must be, and I admit this sounds a little "old woman", but is to hang out with my mom and dad. Getting coffee every morning with my dad was really relaxing and just nice to talk to him and realize that he's a real person. I know it sounds silly, but pretty often parents seem like, well, parents, and at least for me it was easy to forget that they have political and religious views and opinions, and of course, lives. It was a good way to get to know him, I feel. That part made me never want to leave home.

Back at school now. Iono, some of my classes are kind of disappointing, but at least they aren't all. My schedule works outkind of weird, and I'm feeling mixed about it. I have one class on Friday, but it's mandatory attendance etc etc, but ohhhhh 3 day weekend! SO TEMPTING to just drop it.

Mel came to visit for a few days, and that was nice. Having her meet my friends and I met her friends, etc etc. Went on a power SF trip - Pier 39, Ghiradelli Square, Chinatown, Metreon and whatnot.

On the first day of school, I told on of the flyering/tabling people that I can't join his club because I have rabies. That was oddly satisfying for some reason.

I'm keeping a busy semester this year - doing all the things I meant to do but didn't have the time to. I think it'll be good for me - I was pretty stressed out for basically... the entirety of 2006.

New Year's Resolutions:

1. Be less judgmental
2. More social
3. More assertive
4. relaaax
5. Run regularly instead of intermittently, and this goes for EVERYTHING I DO AHHHH
6. Be on the meat market again. Heh. :) Well, mostly kidding, it's my last semester so this type of thing doesn't really even matter anymore, personally.
7. Don't fail Spanish
8. Clean my room.
9. less self-conscious
10. Lose 5 pounds. Gain more muscle mass.
11. Read books and keep up with news
12. Not be a perfectionist though I think I fail that already by making 12 new year's resolutions that I probably won't keep.
13. Less emo. Which leads me to...

Ok we all get emo, we all get sad, depressed, whatever. I have a tendency to be pretty damn emo, but I feel weird (now... this didn't used to be the case) about posting that kind of crap on a blog. I mean, it's a public place, however journal-esque it is, and really, there's more (unbelievably) to me than that. So what I do is write it down somewhere and store it so NOBODY WILL EVER SEE IT except me, duh. And I read one today, and I actually couldn't keep on reading it. It made me really embarrassed. It's just funny how that works.

Still, it's nice to know where you've been, where you're going, and just think of all the events that make you who you are.

Got my mom addicted to House. I'm very proud.

I love being back, becaaaaause

Mom quotes:


"You should tell everyone that you have syphilis. OH how about AIDS?"

I don't even remember the context.

So.

Got into one of my top top top choices today for med school.

SWEET.

And I found out that the class I thought I failed? I got an A. Also sweet.

My mom took a look at my eye and said that I have a cornea infection. Booooo.


Final Fantasy XII is fun and also eating up my life. Good.

Seeing friends this week. Also good.

overall?

I'm doing swell.

SO CLOSE TO BEING DONE

Um, so this semester kicked my ass. Whatever.

I probably should've studied instead of playing Taboo for a few hours, but it was so addictive!

Anyhow, I'm looking forward to doing these things until my brain turns to mush when I get back home:

















And:




















Oh, and:
family and friends... I suppose :)

You know, something I noticed about the locker that bothers me is naked people. I know it's totally normal, and it's not really a problem, but sometimes I'd just be walking to the bathroom and the scale minding my own business, then BAM! NAKED OLD LADY! Then it's totally awkward muffin.

Yay fun pics

I've been alright. Last week was kind of lame because I was emo the whole time, but I cheered up near the end of the week.

Donated my car to charity, sigh.

I can't wait to graduate and have a fresh start again.

Pictures! These are some Yale pics that I liked that I didn't post on facebook. Mostly because I forgot, but i'm also trying to wean myself off of that habit.

Chin losing definition. Concerned.
