Bleargh.
I know I love school and my awesome lab job and all, but man. These long days are killing me.
I mean, it's my own fault I don't sleep at night. I get home and get online and then I forget to sleep. It's seriously beginning to cost me in dollars spent on coffee every morning at 7:30 am.
Tomorrow I don't have to be on campus until 10 am! Isn't that awesome? I'll get to sleep in so late... Man. And I get out of class at--get this--NOON. Such a huge difference from today. Today I was on campus from 8:30 until 7:00. I had a total of an hour and a half today when I wasn't working, doing homework, taking notes in class, or walking between those things. Crazy, man. Crazy. But fun.
Anyway, was I complaining or telling you how cool life is? I don't remember.
I met this cool girl in my Biochem section today. She's a Biochem major too (actually, I think we all are--only biochem majors are required to take this series), and she's really nice. She's smart. It was so nice to listen to her ask intelligent questions in class today! She got pizza with me after section (the hour of the hour and a half that I wasn't working) and we talked about the major and ochem and the stupidity of sororities and whatnot. It was fun. I miss hanging out with friends. I really miss Ann and Jenny and Christine and... Jamie.
I was on the bus home today and realized I'm really lonely. I mean, classes are fun and all... But I miss friends. I miss Lyla. I miss hanging out on the floor of the library with her. Or laying on my bed with her, doing that stupid word association game. I guess I just miss people.
*sigh*
Well, in good news, I learned how to do Western blots today. Again. This time I get it. And I got to do part of it. I got to use that fancy pipette thing. I actually got to load some liquid into the gel before we ran it. Granted, it was only the ladder, and she made me put it into the two cells farthest away from her actual sample, but that's totally logical for my first time using the thing. It was still awesome.
I write too much.

We threw a lot of socks.
(We threw some at Kerry, too, it should be mentioned, but far fewer than were thrown at George Bush.)

Oh, and you owe me a bracelet. And I have a bookmark I want to send you (it's bought, not made), but I'm using it right now :-D so when I finish A Little Princess I'll drop the bookmark in the mail. :-P I'll send a letter with it.
