Going Bananas
It's not because it's Anna Banana's birthday yesterday (Happy Birthday, skeeshie!); it's because I read a couple of syllabi for fall quarter. Whoever told me to read syllabi ahead of time must hate me. I don't think I'll be able to sleep now...
*screams inside* They have syllabi up on Blackboard already?!
*whimpers aloud* Ughhh! Lecture notes and readings are ready to be downloaded, printed and read already?!
*peeks at the biochemistry schedule* Exam 1 is two weeks away?! *faints*
Eeek! Saying "I'm not ready for school" is such an understatement. I'm having butterflies doing gymnastics in my chest cavity, as if using my heart as their floor, beam, what-have-you. Eeek!
As usual, I had a quick panic attack:
me: Oh no! Why am I a senior already?! I don't know anything. I deserve to be in freshman bio not in biochemistry...
me, as if I were another person talking to the one above: Yeah, you don't know anything. Do you even remember how to write lab reports?
Wait, I'm still in a panic. My planner does not even say when fall quarter begins (September 26). My backpack has not even been washed. I have yet to get books. I haven't received my parking decals in the mail (of course, it doesn't help that the key to the mailbox is missing-in-action). I have a dental appointment sometime on Monday, and I don't even know what time that's gonna be. I have this feeling it's going to be right after my senior capstone class. And I'm going to be late, or reschedule or not show up. Man, I'm beginning to dislike me...
Waaah! I think reading about those tired, stressed, over-worked medical interns (The Intern Blues) is making me more nervous. I can't imagine starting internship. I'd be a wreck. I already am a wreck.
I had such plans this summer-- you know, the kind that would make an organized person really happy (i.e. put my things, and therefore life, in order). And of course, I'm not even close. People think I'm this organized go-getter... well, inside, I'm a messy, lazy, disorganized ... ugh, person!
Please Lord, let me get through the first week intact...


thats college life i guess..

yah, college life. i just panicked (again!) a while ago, and so looked at my degree requirements checklist. it turns out that because i am minoring in English, i don't really have a lot of credit breathing space for classes in other disciplines.
i'm so glad i caught a mistake of mine. or else i would have to take return in the summer or next fall to take 1 measly 3-credit class. *sigh* i guess my 4-year plan had some holes.
got my books, so now i'm somewhat ready. i reorganized my bookshelves, and i have my backpack ready--albeit unwashed. hehehe.
thanks for dropping by and leaving me some love, ate boogie and sar! *hugs* hope school for you both goes better than mine.
