Nov. 12th, 2005 06:37 amWhoa. Livejournal looks different this morning.
Anyway.
I think waking up at 6 am on a Saturday should be illegal. And super-important 3-hour tests that cover everything you've ever learned should not be allowed to start at 8:30 on said Saturday mornings.
I'ma go take the Biochem subject GRE today. I took a practice test and scored in the 43rd percentile. Hopefully the natural increase from practice test to real test is significant this time. I'd like to actually do well. You know, like, above average maybe. It's funny--when I think about "grad school" I don't care whether or not I go, and I don't care about my scores. But when I think about "UCSF" my heart gets all fluttery and I get the sick test feeling in my stomach. I really really really want UCSF to accept me. Wouldn't it just be damned cool to work in Elizabeth Blackburn's lab?? In the middle of the most awesome city ever??
Okay. Enough about how my mind is freaking out. I'm gonna go study glycolysis one last time. Memorize the amino acids again. That sort of thing.
See you on the flip side.
