wai~!!! ^^

It's raining outside, but I am remamrkably upbeat despite this. I was chexing my f-list just now and realized that in an interesting twist, both Peanuts and Foxtrot have rain in them too. But that wasn't what I wanted to blabber on about.

I don't remember much of yesterday. It was just there I guess. Although I do know that I didn't go to my psychology lecture again because I was way tired. I have to make sure to get there tomorrow morning. *mental note* no more before 9am classes... EVER. Umm... yeah. Meh. I went to bed uber-happy, I remember that bit at least. And by uber-happy, I mean the happiest I've been in a couple days. It was awesome. Anyway...

Woke up today to the realization that my psychology paper was due at 3 pm and that I had about an hour and half to write it. I procrastinate too much. Yeah... so class and such.

I think I may have found my main interest in biology though. For the first time all year, I found myself paying full attention to the speaker for the entire hour and a half. I have 4 pages of notes to prove it. The topic? The effect of toxic algae on certain types of copepod (sp?) and their resitance build-up to the said toxins. It was all like, ecological and ocean-centric and everything. (cuz that made sense) Anyway, it made me happy. I guess I always sorta knew that I was more interested in the ecology and marine stuff than anything else. *sigh* Now if only my parents could see that. They still want that MD/PhD from me. Umm... how does MD fit in if I want to study marine biology and ecology...? Meh. It'll all be figured out eventually. But it was nice to get some of my direction back I suppose.

Gah... I don't even remember what I wanted to write. I started this at 8 pm, picked it up at 1:30 am and just changed the time to a place inbetween. Ah well... I go now.

Yep. Copepods (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Copepod).

Good to know I'm not the only one with parents expecting doctoral work out of them. Gah.

Ahh... Always good to know that I can spell properly. Thanks.

pfft... parents... They just never know. That or they just refuse to see...
