| hello folks... no, i have not dropped off the face of the planet,
although i may be teteering. by request, i have decided to update
this thing. i also am in the middle of a ten-page paper (on
sexual pathways in the brain... yeah... that's right. i do sex
research...), so
anything to do that's not what i'm supposed to is fantastic. i don't
think i could have said that in any wordier a way.
whatever. i'm not here to share my wonderful grammar.
so, let's see, what's up... well, i had a fun thanksgiving
break. i went up to ny with my aunt and uncle to see my two
cousins who are up there. i went to see my first opera at the
Met- Tannhauser by Wagner. That was interesting, and it was quite
surprising that I did not fall asleep because I was pretty sleep
deprived by that point. I also got to work a 10 hr shift at the
pediatric ER at Mt. Sinai Hospital, which was really cool. i got to see
everything from a guy getting his leg re-set after breaking it to a 7
month old's skull fracture to an amazing feat of immature bowel
movement, where a newborn preemie shot out poo LITERALLY 2 ft from butt
to farthest projection. it was quite impressive. she was
tiny too. i think she was maybe 12 inches long. itsey bitsy
baby with major gasiness. i know that by now you're thinking,
"and i'm spending my two minutes to read about baby poo?"
yes. so now, i'm in the midst of reading days. i have to
finish my ten-page paper by tonight because i won't have time to do it
later. soo much work. it's insane. i wonder if i can handle
my courseload next semester, which might be harder... i'm kind of
scared.
as for other stuff.. hmm... i can't wait to go home, but that's
probably a pretty typical sentiment. i realized that i've gotten
a lot nerdier since coming to college. it's really weird.
when i say nerdier, i mean, i enjoy my education far more than i ever
have in the past. my semester is ridiculously hard but i've also
enjoyed it the most because of what classes i'm taking, etc. it's
really weird. yeah, but i'll stop talking about that. we
need not stress melissa's nerdiness.
ah yes, for my brother's birthday, i baked a lot of cookies. a
lot of cookies... i think i may have a picture somewhere. it was
first day of thanksgiving break, and all my roomies had left for home,
so i was all sad and alone in the house. the cure? to bake!
yes. found the pictures. here they are:
and all packaged up:
and i shall end my entry on that sweet note.

| so i'm in chem class, quite bored, until my professor decides to
explain what a barometer is to the class by drawing this picture of it.
yeah... i started laughing. people stared at me, but i know they
wanted to laugh too but weren't as immature as i am. i mean, it
has a length of 760 mm, and as my friend Jason pointed out, it even has
hair...
so, chem class does have its interesting moments.

| k, so i just looked at that entry, and it makes me sound like a huuuuge
nerd. okay, so in the social realm, let me see. went a
pimps and hoe's party last night. don't have pictures, or i'd
post 'em. um.. for july 4th, i got to hang out with christina's
cool cousin, andy, who also goes to penn. somehow, by the end of
the night, he ended up with his shirt off, but who knows. alcohol
+ holiday = weird stuff. yeah, def gave christina a drunken phone
call, so yay christina!
hmm... i also have fallen into country music. it's sooo
good! you guys should listen to some brad paisley.
yes. that's the rest of my update. bye.

| You know those public profile things on these xangas? the ones
that you can see if you browse through a blogring. i was browsing
one of my blogrings and saw my site and realized that i have had a
spelling error in there for all this time. that was a fantastic
entry. i guess i should write more... let me see... what have i
been up to this week?
oh yeah, yesterday, i killed a rat by mixing up the volumes of the
drugs i was giving it for brain surgery (we use ketamine for anyone who
has heard of it. it's an animal tranquilizer- slang i think is
special k or something?). yeah, gave it 0.15 mL of ketamine and
0.30 mL of xylazine (a muscle relaxant), instead of 0.30 mL of ketamine
and 0.15 mL of xylazine. and then its eyes glazed over, and it
died. yay me... and what else did i do, you ask? i
also took pictures of rats having sex. that's great.
now you see why i don't update often?
fyi, i'm not a sick perv, it was for research purposes... i swear.
