Today was beautiful!

Maybe I'm overreacting, but it feels good. It was just a simple thing, maybe many simple things that made this a good day. I'll just tell you one, which is enough, at least it was for me.

Today, I was part of one of those movie encounters, when the girl looks at him when his looking at her and then, they smile to each other. So nice... It made my day. Especially because it was this guy I had seen before and I thought he was really cute, and then out of nowhere it just happened. It really took me by surprise, I'm not lying.

I'll confess that there are times when I keep staring at the guy who's coming my way so he will look into my eyes and then...ta-dah! Eye contact! That never works by the way ¬¬. This time it worked so much better and it was so movie like, because it wasn't planned at all. And it wasn't even the kind of situations were you just smile to be polite, or to make the situation less uncomfortable. It just was so movie like.

Maybe this is a stupid post, but I don't really care. I'm too happy and nothing can take this away from me. =p

P.S. A friend knows him so I'll ask her for some kind of help, and I'll give you details tomorrow, if there are any.

1 a.m.

Yesterday I stayed up until 1 a.m. studying for my embryology test, by that time I was sick and tired of studying, so I went to sleep. I wasn't even sleepy, but I was really tired and a little frustrated, I had lost my optimism and couldn't learn anything more.

Today I took the test, two tests actually (one's a lab). I thought I had done terribly on the first one, and was afraid I could fail. What frustrated me the most was the fact that embriology is supposed to be the easiest subject. So several thoughts crossed my mind: "I should have stayed until 3 a.m.", "If I fail this one, what can I expect from the others...", "I hope I can get a 60", and of course..."I want a tequila shot!".

But I think staying until 1 a.m. was okay, I got an 80 on the first test, and a 96 on the second. Pretty cool, huh? Good luck? Maybe!

Many of my classmates weren't happy with their grades, they thought there had been a mistake, because the "brightest ones" got 70's and the "dumbest ones" got 80's. I don't know if they were implying I was part of the "dumbest ones" (I hope not), but who cares?! I'll show them. I'm very motivated at this point.

So wish me luck!

Next week I'll take tests for the other subjects.

Well spent day

Yesterday was the funniest day ever. Ok, I'm exaggerating as usual. But it was a fun learning experience, and that is completely true.

I knew it was going to be an interesting day, but I thought it would probably be one of those tough days for me. But it wasn't. I was quite happy about my job throughout the morning after all.

We (most of the students) measured blood pressure for about three hours or more. Our ears were hurting at the end because of the stethoscope, and of course, I was the first one to complain. I hate complaining but believe me, it did hurt. Fortunately, the fifth year students were kind and let me take a break. I had already learned everything there was to learn about measuring blood pressure, so I think it was a well deserved break.

Overall it was a well spent day, except for the hurting ears. But I got to see my classmates, I learned thoroughly about measuring blood pressure, and after eighteen years of thinking my blood type was A positive they told me it was O positive. Oh, and something worth mentioning... the second year students treat us like trash. I guess they're really happy because they aren't "the first year students" anymore. I didn't expect anything different though.
