SIX times a week.

Hello all.
I'm back from my blogging break but I suspect my blogs will be shorter and fewer this semester due to my INTENSE schedule. When I signed up for 5 hrs of physics, 4 hrs of genetics, and 4 hrs of biochem I don't think I knew what I was getting myself into. Especially since I'm taking the "easy" biochem432 class and we have SIX quizzes a week!! One online every Monday, 1 in class and 2 online every Wednesday, and 2 online every Friday coming to a grand total of 70 for the semester. So you'd think hey, well they must not count for very much right? Wrong. All together the quiz points count as much as two test grades. Not Fun. I'm about to take my first online quiz today (she gave us extra time for Monday's quiz since it was the first day, how nice..) once I finish procrastinating, and I have my first in class quiz tomorrow so I'll let you know how they go. I'm currently trying to memorize the chemical structures for all 22 amino acids by tomorrow. blech.

On a better note. My break was amazing (save loosing my camera somewhere in kyle's mess of a car that he can't seem to clean out so he can find my camera for me). I spent much needed time with my family and with my Kyle. I'd post pictures, but well, I don't have my camera :( I got a lot of great and thoughtful gifts for Christmas, spent the night in for New Years, and then started a busy week of Kyle seeing from Jan 2 to Jan 8. Oh so I just want to say that I only saw Kyle for 9 days this break (not even full days at that). Lame. But I did enjoy the time we spent together and we had a wonderful date afternoon/night this past Thursday and it was much needed. Between our busy schedules and large families Kyle and I can never quite seem to find time alone so it was really nice to go out to lunch, shop, see a movie, go to dinner, and then watch bama walk all over Texas. Also, I must say that last year I marked on my calender every day that I saw Kyle and so when December 31st came around this year I counted up all the days I saw him from Jan 1, 2009-Dec 31, 2009. It was 105. Yep. That's it. 105 days. or 28% however you want to look at it. Appreciate what you have cranky couples of the world because I can promise you it's probably better than only seeing your honey for 285 days (roughly) in the last 2.5 years. Okay, enough complaining. Time for some good news.

I LOVE MY NEW ROOMMATE DEARLY AND WE SHALL HAVE LOTS OF FUN THIS SEMESTER!!
Not to sound like a brat, but I am so glad I'm getting the roommates I deserve. I've had 2 years of roommate hell and now I can finally enjoy living with three beautiful people I love. Cheers.
