Some thoughts, mainly random rantings. I was 23 when I started this blog, and as time goes on some thoughts will remain the same, some views may change when I am no longer the observer but actually the performer, in this play that is life. These thoughts simply reflect a bit of the chaos that plays through my mind every day as I take a moment to observe the little details that I encounter along my path.

Why do they try to kill me broke?

So this morning I realised that I had forgotten to post a book to a kid, I go into the post office and give the book to the lady. $11.95 to NY, I am like say what? You've got to be kidding , book rate? She then looks at me stupidly, book rate, You didn't say so. I ask her why now? It is a book isn't it? Then she is rude enough to tell me 'yeah its Monday morning for you' to which I couldn't help myself I ask 'yeah its Monday do you know where your brain is?' I think that I pissed her off even more because she still charged me an exorbitant price to mail the book, had I gone to a real post office and not this stupid university post office I am sure that I would not be ripped off, plus I am pretty sure that they would not have taken half an hour to figure out the price:S yeah university students and simple math, aren't we just the creme de la creme! I dunno why everything on campus is inflated to 250% of the normal price! You should check out the bookstore...they probably laugh so hard at us after we leave Caffeine
Well you can tell that finals are nearing because there are hardly any computers available and almost everyone has MSword open as they are trying to rush those term papers, myself included. I got an assignment today to write down all the protocols for cell culture...geezums!
take home French exam is due today, ha watch me get a B! This will be embarrassing but hey I tried my best, I considered cheating a bit and using google's translation tool but I figured hey the exam is already take home, at least I should attempt it by myself and see if I can learn something. (it took me 2 hours to write a 200 word French essay on a weekend at the beach:(...Foreign languages are definitely not my specialty. if I fail then I will be happy knowing that I least I did it by myself and gave it a shot (not my best shot but still a shot:D)
so now onto my protocols. For cell culture firstly it is a pain in the ass, you have to keep your self at least 6 inches under the hood in UV light (great now my DNA will for thymine diamers and mutate). Secondly you have to be fast and precise...Listen I can hardly talk and walk at the same time how am I supposed to do that?
hmm I am thinking that I would have to come up with something a little bit more sensible than that to turn into my professor.
well anyway lemme wrap up here and find a corner to review my French paper.
