I feel I should write a bit about yesterday, which was horrible. I got something in my left eye like halfway through the day, and since I had my contacts in I couldn’t rub. Normally I tear up for a few minutes and whatever was there gets flushed out, my eyes are good at taking care of themselves. But whatever this was, it wasn’t coming out. All through physics, and the hour and a half it took me to get home, I was in some of the worst pain I’ve ever been in. When I finally got home I took my contacts out and flushed my eye with water for like five minutes. By the evening the pain had almost completely gone away. Things wouldn’t have been so bad if the buses did suck ass. I knew I’d have to wait like a half hour for the bus because I always just barely miss the one to go home after getting off the first one. However, the one that I was expecting to catch was full, so the drive just drove right by the stop. Another half hour of standing in the sun and heat, with my entire head in pain. Then it got worse. A few minutes before the bus got there I nearly blacked out from everything. I felt like I was going to vomit for a few minutes, I was starting to lose both my sight and hearing and my entire body went tingly and numb. I have no clue how I managed to walk up to the bus when it got there, but luckily some guy gave me his seat. I really wish I had a car, then I would have been home way earlier and in general wouldn’t have to deal with the shit the buses put me through. Well, back to studying. I got a few hours in today, want to get through at least half of the recorded lecture tomorrow. Tags: college, finals, life, School, stupid buses |

This week has been kind of meh. One a good note I only had biostats once this week because the professor “had an incident” with her horse. But on a lower note I didn’t have my micro lab this week. Yes, I have to get up at 6AM in order to get to my 8AM lab which lasts until nearly noon at the longest, but it’s the one class that I really enjoy what I’m doing. What can I say, I’m a micro nut. Now back to Japanese homework. Tags: japan, japanese, School |
| And I’m looking for a job on top of it all |

Posted by Amber on October 16th, 2011
So in case you hadn’t noticed, this semester has been a rather busy one for me. It’s my senior year, although after looking at everything it looks like I’m going to be staying another full year probably. And for one class, biochem. Why? Because before they had a one semester biochem class for non-majors who needed it. Well, apparently the last time they had it was last spring, so now in order to fill my requirements I don’t get to take a 3 unit biochem course, but two semesters of biochem, each 4 units each. Lucky me. I guess that’s what I get for putting it off. So I’m going to have to most likely come back next year just for that class. But on the plus side if I do come back I can take Japanese 415 in the fall. Hopefully I can, taking a semester break from a foreign language might as well be taking a three year break from speaking it. But also another good thing, if I do have to stay, and if I get the job I’m trying for right now, then I’ll have tons of time to work. And I hope I do get the job. I applied once before but apparently there wasn’t anyone qualified enough or something so the job was posted again. I am qualified for it, and I am determined to get it, so I’m applying again. It’s the perfect job for me and a great chance for me to keep practicing and learning new lab skills. The pay isn’t too bad either, it’s nearly $11/hr, which may not seem like a lot to some people reading this, I don’t know, but minimum wage in Arizona is only $7.35, which I’ve been told is very low compared to other states. Real quick about classes. I hate my biostats with a passion, and I usually leave early in order to make it on time to my next class because there’s no point in being in class except for possible extra credit. The professor can’t lecture worth shit, it seems like she’s always just babbling. She just pisses me off. My vet sci lab isn’t too bad, it’s actually pretty easy, just takes a bit of work and the main professor who lectures is a bit boring. Japanese is fine, I have the same professor (I don’t know if that’s even what I should call him, he’s a grad student) as I did for some of 101 and 201, which helps because I don’t have to get used to how he speaks. I’m actually doing pretty well in there right now. And my micro lab is enjoyable, although not so much the Monday pre-lab lectures. The professor pretty much just goes over what we’ll be doing in lab that week in fifty minutes, and then the next day the lab TA goes over the same information in about 20 minutes, so I’m not sure why I go but I go. My lab TA is really nice though. And quick anime! Thus far nothing good this season except Shana. Boku wa Tomodachi isn’t too bad I guess, but nothing else I’m watching stands out. Although from last season Penguindrum is starting to intrigue me. It’s kind of like with Steins;Gate (end AMAZING), where I had no clue what the hell was initially going on, but when it started it started. And that’s all I have to say for now! Or have time to say! Oh and I’ll put a more relevant icon when photobucket decides it wants to stop being a bitch. Tags: Anime, life, School |

Now what’s in store? Packing up all my crap, moving out of the apartment Saturday. Hopefully getting a job over the summer because I’m in desperate need of money, and of course wasting my entire June and most of July taking physics at community college. What ever happened to summer vacation? I haven’t had one since I entered college, I’m always taking classes. Tags: grades, School |

Now to as the title says. This is going to be very short, because I have less than a week of class left for the year and have a shitload of stuff to do. First, I’d like to say a bit about the finally aired last two episodes of Madoka. It took forever, and honestly the ending was a bit confusing (not so much the ending ending as much as the Madoka stuff), but it received a 10 from me, and has bumped Clannad down to my 3rd favorite anime. Also the HOTD OVA, which I’ve been looking so forward to because there isn’t going to be a second season anytime soon with the mangaka only bringing out a chapter every two months with barely any development in it, didn’t impress. I rated it rather low. Now onto realizations! (more…) Tags: Anime, basketball, college, life, music, random |
