A week goes by and I can't talk about it
Changes changes...
Midterms, nominations, cooking attempts, laundry and birthday parties to boot. $12 dollars in the bank and here I am a week later.
My mind is just a swimmin' lately. I'm finding it harder and harder to concentrate on things. I don't even know what the bug is. Sure I feel lethargic and I'm stressed with school to the max. My birth certificate is lost somewhere out there in the mail and I'm paranoid that someone is going to steal my identity. Bahh... I really think I just need to go to the gym. The weather is getting nicer and I can start running outside again. Besides, the summer is coming and I really need to get back into shape.
So midterm yesterday...didn't go great but sure wasn't horrible. I was completely exhausted after. I had been in the BUGS lounge until around 12:30 that night. I came home and had a bath then passed right out. Woke up this morning at 9:30. An amazing 12 hour sleep.
NEWS FLASH!
I've been elected as VP social for BUGS. Let me tell you I'm excited. Now I've got a speech to write and a platform to make up. I have a load of plans for next year and I really want to make sure that nothing changes from this year since it's been amazing. I get to give a speech next thursday. Oh next week is busy busy busy. Wednesday is hump day - cookies and condoms in the BUGS lounge. Thursday - Sarah and I are travelling to St. Jacobs to go grab fudge for friday, the science society is having a society wide event and we're having mocktails from 11-2, then there is elections and dinner (consisting of free pizza and pop) and my speech. Friday - Fudge day of course.
I made stew today. Bloody fantastic. Now I'm doing laundry, updating my resume and soon to be off to bed.

While Thursdays are my favourite day, this one sure sucked balls
Oh Thursday Thursdays...
How'd biochem go? Oh you know, same old shiz. I definitely feel more confident about this midterm than the first one. It still isn't sitting well with me. There were, out of 29 questions, at least 5 that I sat there and said "wtf? seriously??". For example, a few questions were discussing the effects of mutations on the stability of the T and R states of Hemoglobin.
Hemoglobin is a pretty cool little globular protein. It binds oxygen and delivers the oxygen to our muscles and the rest of the body. The T state has high oxygen affinity while the R state has low affinity for oxygen. The R state is much better in the lungs and the T state is better in the body. The one question on our exam said something to the effect of which of the following is correct?
a) A mutation to hemoglobin will increase the stability of the T-state
b) A mutation to hemoglobin will decrease the stability of the R-state
c) A mutation to hemoglobin will decrease the stability of the T-state
d) A mutation to hemoglobin will increase the stability of the R-state
I could be wrong because some days I am, and this is biochem we're talking about but aren't a and b the exact same and c and d the same also? You would think that given the oxygen binding curve of hemoglobin and the fact that the transition between T and R states is an equilibrium equation, an increase in the stability of the T state would increase as the stability of the R state decreases. If anyone knows the answer to this please let me know.
Besides the stupid questions and the 5 mistakes on our exam which she decided to tell us about while explaining that she hadn't finished our exam until 3am... it went relatively alright. It's done now and that's all that matters. Now it's time to start studying for evolution.
Thursday nights are tv nights. Usually I'd be at Adam, Robbie and Paul's but since I had my midterm tonight I decided I'd just come home. I came home after my exam, made a piece of chicken, cut up some cheese, heated up some tomato sauce and some spinach and threw it all on a bun and cooked it up. It was boring as hell but did the job. Survivor was boring except that JT lost a tooth during the challenge. Hell's Kitchen was about normal except that the Harlem Globetrotters came. I saw them perform in Toronto when I was little. Out of everyone on the show so far, LA is my favourite. She reminds me a loaddd of my friend Callista but Cal is definitely not a Lesbian or crazy butch. Their personalities are very similar. Also, I just saw the new comcast commercial... bloody fantastic. If you've not seen it, check it out here:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bCP5EaU6IRE&feature=related
Plans for this weekend? Well other than studying for my evolution exam not much. The engineering pubcrawl is tomorrow night. I had full intentions of going at the beginning of the week but I'm really not wanting to anymore. Between my ex going, me having zero money, being ridiculously exhausted, and being in need of a large amount of rest I've decided not to go.
Saturday should be entertaining. I have full intentions of exploring Waterloo given the weather. Saturday is supposed to be 5 and Sunday is supposed to be 8. I'm estatic. Figure I'll go see my tree, perhaps make my way up to chapters and grab some groceries before either celebrating St.Patricks Day or spending my evening studying the one thing that makes me happy.
Last night while I was attempting to study for biochem I was stressed to the max. I decided to make a prayer wall. I saw one at my friend Sarah's house when we went out for her birthday and after I wrote down all the things I was stressed out about I felt so much better. Now I've got about 25 sticky notes on my wall and it's the first thing I see when I wake up and the last thing I see when I go to bed.
Well... thats enough for today. I'm exhausted, emotionally drained and in need of copious amounts of cake. I have no cake, or a solution for refilling my emotion quota. Sleep seems like the appropriate solution.
Oh yeah, I was on greencometrue today and I saw this article. It's about 3 odd and unusual ways to recycle.
All three of these are very cool ideas, especially the banana. Too bad I'm not more of a fancy person with shoes to shine.
Here they are:
1. The Recycle House - Paper Becomes a Home
These low-cost homes are created from old paper products. Each costs less than $5,000 and can provide a safe, durable, and clean environment for those without alternative housing.
2. The Recycled Chair - Guns Become a Seat
Furnishings from recycled materials are popping up everywhere, but this recycled chair puts a unique spin on reuse. It is made from recycled weapons from a civil war in Cambodia.
3. The Recycled Shoe Polish - A Banana Becomes Shoe Cleaner
While not necessarily a product, this idea had to be included. If you are looking for an eco-friendly and chemical-free alternative to shoe polish, simply have a banana. The peel can be used to shine and protect your shoes.

Hump Day
Blah, it's Wednesday. Middle of the week and full of extreme stress as per usual.
Day so far...
6:30am: Woke up. Not overly exciting, looked over at Astro and saw he had been recently updated which was rather unfortunate since I saw David had left me a message. Ah well, it was probably just some sort of a hello after he got off work, not important by any means. I relogged in and decided to start the day off right by checking FML. What better way to start the day then by laughing at the misfortunes of other people. Then off to the shower...
8:00am: Left for school. Almost died on my way. Holy geeeze, the wind was insane! It still is but I thought I was going to be blown away walking here. The wind was cold too and I'm pretty sure it tried to start raining. Got to school, grabbed a cocoa and a muffin and travelled to my invertebrate lecture.
8:30am: Class with Barton. Nothing like it. I actually don't mind waking up at 6:30 when I have class with him. A whopping 4 of us were in lecture today. I felt badly because he was so disappointed. He blamed it on the time change but I'm pretty sure people just don't come on Wednesdays because it's stuff we've already looked at in the lab.
9:30am: Bailed on biochem again. Not that I care, its not like this stuff is on our midterm. Figured I'd go to the bugs lounge and hang out there and attempt to get some work done. So far, not so much work. A bunch of browsing the internet and watching videos on youtube but not so much work. I'm going to start reading up on my term paper topic after this.
11:00am: Time it is currently... I really should get some work done.
I am pooched. This morning 15 minutes before I was supposed to wake up, a plastic container of some sort was blowing around outside and the blackbirds woke up earlier than I expected. I didn't get to 6:45... I fell asleep with the Knight of Cups in my bed and lost my pendulum in there somewhere. I woke up and I'm pretty sure one of the two was lost in my pants.
Plans for today:
-Get some work done now (mainly reading my zooplankton book from Laurier and my lab manual for my lab this afternoon).
-Rush through the 2nd half of my fetal pig lab.
-Run home, make some tuna mush or something similar for dinner
-Study for biochem to an extreme degree.
-Work on my Resume some more
I'm so unmotivated. Anyone have tylenol?

Ultra tasty Tuesday
After my chem lab this afternoon I walk back to the BUGS lounge to find my phone yelling at me for being so far away. I was excited to see not only a facebook message but a text, phone call and phone message from my friend Mandy.
Mandy has been my best friend since I popped out of my mom. We did everything together since I can remember. Went to the same elementary school, had our first sleepovers together, christmas, halloween, high school, dances, everything really. Luckily enough, we're in the same city for University and live a whole 15 minute walk away from each other.
So she phones, leaves me a message that is somber sounding, quiet and I'm thinking... oh crap! So I telephone back, text and boot it home so I can look on facebook. Was she in pain? A broken heart? Something to do with the fam? No. It was something much more fearsome. A dinner invitation. I was ridiculously estatic. However, you may be thinking, what about that biochem exam you have on Thursday? I thought you were going to start studying for that. Well Mr. Conscience, it is only 8:30. I have full intentions of going to bed late.
I pop on a bus, head down to Laurier and Mandy and I have dinner at Wilf's. I didn't realize how much I had missed her until I saw her. No, we're not as close as we used to be and yeah, we really should see each other far more than we do. However, it just makes me adore the time we do spend together. We had good chats over dinner which consisted of a burger for me. Family, love, school and life, all the typical things you talk about while you're catching up with someone. It just made me realize that she's definitely someone I want in my life forever.
Looks like I got home just in time, it's now pouring outside. April showers seem to be coming in March this year.

Monday Morning Blues
I just spent an hour in Biochem wasting away my soul. God this woman who claims to be my professor cannot teach. I'm not pretending to know the material better than her, or have immaculate presentation skills. However, how can you expect your kids to learn when all you do is stand there and show us pictures of reactions. She doesn't bother to properly explain the diagrams she provides, write anything down, and she flips through the slides on her powepoint presentations like a newly concieved baby divides cells. It is nearly impossible to follow her. I can't wait until course evaluations...
Now you may be thinking, well maybe if you went to class and paid attention it wouldn't be so bad. For that you get a big "fuck you" from me. I admit, I don't go to class as often as I should (especially since I'm already on campus) but when I go I try and pay attention. My attention span is limited but should you actually teach properly, you'll have no issue engaging me. Oh well, I'll go home and start studying tonight and see how that goes...
In other news, only 2.5 weeks until my Invertebrate essay is due... that gets a huge FML. I'm researching Diel Vertical Migration of Zooplankton (sound exciting??) and while my research is complete, I have a feeling no matter how hard I try, I'm not going to do so great. Dave Barton is one of the smartest and most knowledgable people I've ever met. If I just give him a paper relaying information I found he definitely won't be impressed and most certainly feel the need to give me an astoundingly appropriate 50%.
10:55 am, Monday morning and I'm stressing again. It's only Monday!! Is this a result of the time change? Are the planets improperly lined for me today? Did I wake up on the wrong side of the bed? Horoscope says I'm turning into a gelatinous mass and need to hit the gym. I did roll to the left this morning...

Green Enterprise Toronto
One of my goals is to increase my knowledge of environmental issues going on in Ontario and on a larger scale Canada. Living in Waterloo, I'm very close to St. Jacobs which is a farm based Mennonite community. For me, shopping locally is very easy. For someone living in Toronto, the chances of them being able to get local produce is pretty slim.
I'm following multiple Canadian environmental companies and movements on Twitter. FoodlandOntario and Holland Marsh both linked to a website called Green Enterprise Toronto. GET believes that Toronto can become a sustainable world-class city by supporting its local, green businesses. GET isn't just directed towards restaurants or produce. There are links up for clothing, health and beauty products, music, IT support and a bazillion other things.

Damn Disney for filling me with hopes of finding the most amazing relationship in the world.
I'm watching the Princess Diaries 2 right now and after being single for a very content and quick passing 10 months (give or take a few depending on who is being asked), I'm wondering will I ever find the one for me? Will I ever find that beautiful blue eyed boy who will infuriate me so much yet at the same time make my heart skip? Will I find the man who will win my heart forever and be my best friend? Will I find that spark that will let me know this is the one person I'll never second guess, will always protect and defend me, and won't mind if I snore (which I currently don't!).
Being 21 I'm not overly worried about not finding someone. I have put a lot of thought into it though. I still feel like I'm 17. I never did the high school dating thing and was in my first relationship until last May. I've limited dating experience and I don't exactly know what it is I need to do to change that.
Don't get me wrong, I'm quite content on my own. I don't have to explain my actions to anyone, be responsible for anyone but myself, or come home to anyone. Some people would say that is horrible and life is incomplete, but right now my focus is only on me. I don't feel helpless, alone, or dependent on anyone right now. I could pick up tomorrow and if I wanted to, move away without having to consult anyone. I'd say that in itself is pretty amazing. At the same time though, not waking up on my own would be nice.
I'm just concerned that when I'm ready to consider another persons opinion on all matters, they won't be there...
Stupid Disney, I'm wondering if these types of relationships even exist.

Academia so far...
I'm in a rut...
This term has started off horribly, and with only a month left I can't see my marks jumping up to where I need them to be. I haven't done so hot on any of my exams and with my 2nd round of midterms starting this week its hard to find the motivation to start studying.
I've been up since 7:30 this morning and what have I done other than make cookies? Simply procrastinate. It's now 4:45 on Sunday and I've a biochem assignment due tomorrow and I keep putting it off more and more and more. I figure I'll start it soon, but there is a movie on from 5-7 and then another on from 8-10...
This week should be interesting...
Monday: Biochem assignment due, invertebrate lab, studying for biochem, passport jazz
Tuesday: BUGS election form due, Ambassador form due, Chem prelab due, Chem lab, biochem prep
Wednesday: Vertebrate lab, biochem prep
Thursday: Biochem cram... exam at 5:30
Friday (or Saturday - depending on which day we celebrate): St.Patrick's Day celebrations
Ok, I promise, 7pm I'll start on my biochem assignment.
This term has started off horribly, and with only a month left I can't see my marks jumping up to where I need them to be. I haven't done so hot on any of my exams and with my 2nd round of midterms starting this week its hard to find the motivation to start studying.
I've been up since 7:30 this morning and what have I done other than make cookies? Simply procrastinate. It's now 4:45 on Sunday and I've a biochem assignment due tomorrow and I keep putting it off more and more and more. I figure I'll start it soon, but there is a movie on from 5-7 and then another on from 8-10...
This week should be interesting...
Monday: Biochem assignment due, invertebrate lab, studying for biochem, passport jazz
Tuesday: BUGS election form due, Ambassador form due, Chem prelab due, Chem lab, biochem prep
Wednesday: Vertebrate lab, biochem prep
Thursday: Biochem cram... exam at 5:30
Friday (or Saturday - depending on which day we celebrate): St.Patrick's Day celebrations
Ok, I promise, 7pm I'll start on my biochem assignment.
An attempt to blog with a "T"-less keyboard
I'm going to attempt this whole blogging thing. I have every intention of keeping this up but whether this happens will reveal itself in time.
So what can you expect? Prepare to be dazzled beyond belief. Never have the adventures of your typical 20 something university student been so amazingly invigorating. Between the stresses of single life, the politics of academics and trying to increase my environmental awareness, who knows what kind of troubles I'll run into.
