Hi, everyone. I've become the slum lord of the blogger world. I just slap up a blog and leave it to dilapidate. Shame on me. But, if it makes you feel better, since we last talked I have:
--Finished up Spring classes
--Completed my 11 required psych assessments
--Completed one Summer class, including 4 quizzes and a autobiography paper
--Visited my family back home, and come back not angry or frustrated (HUGE DEAL!)
--Two drafts of the lit review for my dissertation
--Done all the prep work for workshop I'm leading in Hungary on working with teens.
--Taken 2 bio bases exams
--Cleaned out 2 closets (I gave away enough for 2 other wardrobes...shameful)
--Selected the 18 sites where I will apply for internship and put all that info into an excel worksheet (it's bigger than it sounds)
--Requested permission to use various measures for my dissertation
--Done all my shopping for said trip to Hungary
--More I can't remember.
Now, none of you care about any of that, but it makes me feel less anxious to write all of that down. So deal with it.
Sarah tagged me forever ago to write 7 weird or odd habits or facts or what have you, that I do regularly. I'm weird, but my weirdness seems normal to me, so this is kinda hard.
1.) I sleep with a stuffed gorilla named Alice. I've had her since my 14th birthday, and I've always slept with her. She's my body pillow more than a transitional object.
2.) I am the internet guru among my friends. When I didn't email my friends with any interesting links or fun stuff on the internet for a few days one busy week, I got an inbox full of emails asking if I was okay. It's that bad.
3.) I always set clocks ahead. Usually by 7 minutes. For some reason it makes me feel like I have more time.
4.)When I was a kid, I always had a crush on Bob Barker. I think if we got married, I'd get all those prizes. And the plinko board. I'm actually a little sad he's retiring. I always thought I'd get to go on The Price is Right with Bob someday.
5.)I'd wear my Chaco's everyday if it weren't socially unacceptable in some settings.
6.)I have hair on the back of my hands. I don't like it, so I have this love hate relationship with loving myself and leaving it and sneakily shaving it off in the shower.
7.)Before I go overseas, there's always a little part of me that is utterly, 100% convinced that I'm going to die.
So there you go folks, I'm one weird lady.

Wow. I feel "oh so much better" now that I've read this post. Maybe I should run my car off an overpass after all. You have gotten more accomplished in a few months than some people do in three years... and yet.. I cant figure out the basics... like finding an apartment. Can you get extra credit if you do a 12th psych assessment? "raising hand Something the hell has to be wrong with me!
Nothing is wrong with you, something is wrong with me. My friends and I are doing an accelerated path, and this is a crazy pace we're having to keep to stay up on things. Plus, I'm leaving the country for 3 weeks, so I have to work ahead.
Oh, and I finished my last psych report, i didn't do them all in those 2 months. I'm not sure that is even humanly possible. Our program requires 10 to graduate, and the only extra credit ya get is being more competitive for internship if you do more. I was kinda forced to do my last one. 10 would have been just fine with me.
Anyway, I don't reccommend what I'm doing as general practice, but if a little extra effort will let me graduate a year early...it's worth it. :)
