I don't really know what to tell you all today. As some of you majestic muffins may have noticed, I have been kind of missing from the blog. But I was here in spirit. I have officially entered the testing season of the semester. I had four exams last week.
If I had to choose one thing that college has managed to consistently accomplish with complete efficacy, it would undoubtedly be the ability college has to completely ruin any confidence and security I place in my intelligence and ability to learn and retain knowledge. Here's the thing, I have no life. I spend the majority of my life in class or studying. Even when I am doing neither of those things, I'm still thinking about it and there is still all sorts of science running through my mind.
I have learned all sorts of wonderful things because of my education, and, in my opinion, that is what is most important. Quite honestly, I dedicate a lot of time to my school endeavors, but when it comes down to it I don't feel that my grades are the most important thing in my life. I have this predicament, though. It's this little thing known as pre-med. It's an unfortunate period in a person's life at which an individual knows exactly what they want to do do in life, but the end-goal is super far away in a land that lies beyond grades and exams and hours of committing your life to various, though worthwhile, causes. To even be considered at a given medical school a certain GPA is required. So, basically, I will be in school for the rest of my life trying to get grades and test scores to just get through the first round of applications. There is no plan b. Which I know sounds ridiculous. But, dream big, right? And, let's be honest, there are a lot of things I can do with my major if it comes down to it. I just don't want to. Molecular biology isn't what I'm the most passionate about. I want to help people, and, as naive as it may sound, I want to help change the world. I hear one person makes a difference.
This weekend was good, though. Shoutout to an awesome general conference; I watched most of it..
I was able to spend time with some of my dear friends this weekend. We became friends when I first moved to Utah for school. Laura and Adam were my first college friends, and Laura's husband and Adam's fiance are really great. I'm happy that my friends found them, and I'm glad that they are all so happy in their gross, mushy love :) We had a good time.
This is super long. I feel that y'all know enough about my life for now. But that's what the internet is for, right? So, we can have way to much of our lives exposed to the world and do things we would never do in real life.
Also, enjoy my song of the day.
"You have something in your eye"
Also, if you have not yet had the opportunity to appreciate the Spring 2013 line from Carolina Herrera. Appreciate it. http://www.carolinaherrera.com/content.php?l=en I know we are still thinking about the awesome Chanel line, but this is pure happiness.
