or not.

tonight didn't work out. so that whole post below turned into my sister and i sitting on the couch watching a weird made-for-tv movie. ha.

my sister was really sad though. :[

i was willing to go out with her still, but since many of her "friends" flaked, she wasn't in the mood to go out anymore. some irony to it though because what was supposed to be her going away party, which was supposed to be a celebration with some sad tones to it, has instead made her really excited to move and meet new people, etc. etc.

otherwise, i'm going to try to find my planner tonight, and while i'm trying to fall asleep... i'm going to write down all the little things that tend to keep me awake. you know. i always stay awake worrying that i will forget to go meet with dr. howard on the 15th, or miss my dentist appointment on the 2nd. so i've concluded that i need to put my dusty planner to use again. :]

i've also decided to take microbiology next semester. well i think i'm going to take it. see. i think it will be a good review in case i decide to take the gre. for most grad schools, i would have to take a gre subject exam in biology or biochem. the only thing is that i've had two friends warn me that the class is pretty easy because it's stuff we've already learned, especially in the lab portion of the class. so there is always that chance of getting to the point where you have a bad attitude about the class because it's boring, at which point you become really lazy with your work. that happened to both of my friends, and they ended up getting B's in what should have been a solid A class. also this decision brings me up to 20 credits for next semester. i've already dropped photography because that would have been 23. the most i've previously taken is 17, which was fine, but busy. since i'll need to have plenty of time to continue working on my thesis, i might drop my education class or just end up dropping micro. for now, i think i'll wait until i get the syllabus for micro and then i can get a better idea. one friend said i would be better off just reviewing a text. he might be right. so we'll see.

oh. i bought the little elsie mini album today that is shaped like an airplane for my trip to colorado. i pretty much fell in love with it as soon as i saw it, but i wasn't quite sure if i would use it. [at the time, i bought the heart shaped one instead, which umm... i haven't used. ha. go figure.] so i'm going to really make myself take tons of photos while i'm there. i was thinking it would be fun to work on the airplane album while i'm on the airplane, but then i realized bringing my scissors would be a big no-no. so no scrapbooking on the airplane for me.

ok. well work will come earlier then i wish tomorrow. so i'm off to find my planner.
