bleh.
orgo II exam today...was up basically all night studying with alyssa last night. i got a 62...the highest i've gotten on any exam this semester in that class, but still not as good as i was hoping for. i'm basically resigned to the fact that i'm going to have a 2.5 in that class...sigh.
conversely, i got a 44/50 on my physics exam last week, so that was good =] i'll probably end up with a 3.5 in that class.
probably going to get a 3.0 in micro. can't get any higher than that...hopefully i won't end up with a 2.5
i have NO IDEA what i'm getting in orgo I. it will largely depend on if i can dominate this upcoming exam on tuesday.
should get a 4.0 in orgo lab. so that'll be good.
ugh. my gpa is going to BLOW this semester. fml.
super excited for the ugly sweater party tomorrow night and sarah coming for the weekend =]
while staying up all night for my orgo exam yesterday i drank the first cup of coffee i've ever really had...a caramel mocha latte. i didn't even like it, but damn...it definitely kept me awake. i never realized how much caffeine coffee had in it, geez. soooo much more than pop.
i can't wait until this semester is over, finally.

super nostalgic lately.
i think it started after seeing everyone together again at xy's the other night...i miss those people. and just high school in general. i miss having my best friends living within 10 minutes of me =[
then i heard "best days" by graham colton on the radio today.
and the fact that i was home for the past few days didn't help either.
meh.
work was good this weekend...melinda the kennel attendant is a complete moron, but other than that, it was good. i might get to work as an assistant over christmas so i'm excited for that.
got back to MSU tonight and danielle went christmas-decorations crazy. tucker is going to have a field day. but oh well.
orgo II exam on thursday...FML. i NEED to do well. orgo I exam next week. finals the week after. FML FML FML.
pretty sure there was something else i wanted to write about but now i don't remember. meh, oh well.

blah.
football game today was no good...we lost by a lot. despite that, i had a great time for what might have very well been my last game in the student section. after the third quarter when most of the fairweather fans left, everyone else moved down and we all stood in the first couple of rows. there was this random, burning thing in the sky and nobody knew what it was. so instead of paying attention to the game, we chanted U-F-O! U-F-O! that was fun. we also began making our own SPARTANS!!! WHAT IS YOUR PROFESSION?!? chants on third downs, because the stadium guy stopped bothering since 75% of the stadium was empty by that point.
all in all it was just really fun. people were doing angels in the outfield type things at the top of the student section, and we were just trying to have a good time...jumproping with the free towels we got because we tied them all together, chanting "go green blair white", and thanking the seniors for their hard work these past four years. i especially enjoyed the kid with the sign that said "HI MOM...please send $$".
so, even though we lost, it was one of the most fun games i've been to at spartan stadium. everyone who stayed was genuinely having fun and wanted to support the team and enjoy the last game of the year.
ummmm
there's more but i really shouldn't say it here.
e-board party last night was...memorable. we'll leave it at that.
i really can't wait til i get to go to work on wednesday...although apparently there is teh drama llamaz at work lately. so that should be fun. plus, its my first time working there when josh doesn't...AND i have no idea which KA i'm working with...suzy would be good b/c i don't know the others...at all. i've met them both for like 5 minutes but it would be super uncomfortable working with them. oh wellz, life goes on.
super excited for christmas break though...msc homecoming, christmas, new year's, no classes, and just general being at home.
it's 4AM and i'm still awake...fml.

woooooo.
new moon last night...holy shit taylor lautner is HOTTTTTT. the movie was better than the first but that probably was just because they had a budget larger than $50.
got an 83 on my micro exam last week. not as good as i wanted but definitely much better than i did on the first two exams. i'm probably going to get a 3.0 in that class and i'm ok with that. as long as i don't get a 2.5 =[
GOT OVER 100% ON MY ORGO QUIZ LAST WEEK! 21/20 what whattttt. i hung it on the fridge :D
PVMA e-board party tonight at nikki's...should be a good time, i am excited =]
tailgating tomorrow for the penn state game...could very well be my last football game ever in the student section at spartan stadium. vet school students get "grad student" tickets. i'm kind of upset because i absolutely ADORE the student section...but i guess we'll see. if i don't get into vet school this point is null and void.
getting my haircut on wednesday when i'm home for thanksgiving...i am pumped.
i also get to work over thanksgiving. granted, it's not a shitton of hours...but it's hours. and that's all i ask for. wednesday 7:30-2, thursday 9-11ish & 4-6ish, & sunday 9-11ish. super pumped to see everyone at greenfield again =]
kim comes home in 22 days...SUPER PUMPED. yes, i counted. do not judge me.
lots to look forward to in the next month, including:
seeing MISTY for the first time in OVER A MONTH next week!!!
ugly sweater party at our apartment after thanksgiving =]
being done with organic chemistry FOREVERRRRRRR after this semester is over
christmas break, which is a month off of school...which is the LONGEST time i've had off of school in a year. thank god.
huzzah.

pet portraits was today...it was a good time. i ended up staying the whole time because we were short-handed...plus, they needed my laptop, and i wasn't about to leave without my laptop...that would just be silly.
i got to meet lots of doggies and it was just overall a good time.
HOWEVER.
while talking to jenna i found out that to be an auto-admit for vet school, you need to have an SIS score of 890. this score is out of 1000 and is based upon your GPA & GRE score.
guess what my SIS score is?
883.92
are you fucking SERIOUS?!
SERIOUSLY?
SERIOUSLY?
SO. FUCKING. CLOSE. to being an auto-admit. but no.
FML.
seriously.
just FML.

i am physically and mentally exhausted in every capacity.
this week is draining the life out of me.
it doesn't help that i'm still sick and feel SO SO SO tired even though i got 9 hours of sleep last night.
AND that i have to make up an orgo lab tonight, that i already did but fucked up so i have to do it again, so there's an extra 3 hours of my life i don't have time to give up.
even the fact that facebook keeps defaulting to the news feed instead of the live feed is just fucking pissing me off. it's not even that big of a deal it just is really irritating me and on top of everything else i just can't handle it.
i'm so sick of being mediocre. i really want to be good at school again. i miss the days when i was good at school and made everyone proud. my mom keeps asking me how i'm doing in my classes and i tell her fine as usual...but i'm not doing fine and this is not ok.
it would really be great if i could have something good happen to me this week. please and thanks.
love stephanie.

soooo, it's officially misty's birthday. seeing as how it's midnight and all.
she's 7 today.
today is the first birthday i will not be home to see her. it makes me very, very upset.
however, i was on the phone with my mom today...and she basically told me she would be willing to take tucker next year if i wanted to get a house with misty, and him and misty didn't get along.
SO...i am exceedingly happy. EXCEEDINGLY.
i'm pretty much set on getting a house now...all i need is to get into vet school and next year will be PERFECT.
ideally, misty and tucker would be able to get along. but i really don't know if they would. i plan on taking tucker home for a trial run one of these weekends.
either way i am probably going to be able to have my dog at school with me next year and i am SO HAPPY YOU HAVE NO IDEA!!!! =]

organic chemistry.
i'm not kidding, no matter HOW HARD i try, i CANNOT do well! it's impossible. i can't memorize these stupid goddamned reactions and it just frustrates me SO MUCH and makes me want to cry :(
seriously, i just want to become a vet tech and say fuck vet school. i don't know what i'm going to do if i don't get in this year. my gpa is going to be SO LOW...i'm going to be fucked. oh my god.
please please pleaseeee let me get in =[

tax laws are so ridiculous.
i learned that last year when i had to pay taxes on the scholarships i used to pay for school.
another example?
i'm cashing in savings bonds to pay for my college. there's a law that says if you're using the interest gained on the savings bonds to pay for tuition, you don't have to pay taxes on that money.
HOWEVER.
this only applies for parents who put the bonds in their names, not their childrens names. because, you see, the STUPID law says that the owner of the bond must have been at least 24 years old at the time of the bond's purchase in order to qualify for the tax-exemption.
so, my kind grandfather bought me savings bonds when i was little, putting them in my name so that my parents wouldn't be tempted to use the money themselves.
in doing so, he effectively screwed me over, and gave uncle sam some extra cash.
that is such a stupid rule. if these bonds were in my mom's name, and she used them to pay for the EXACT SAME TUITION BILL I'M GOING TO PAY, we wouldn't have to pay taxes.
since they're in my name and i wasn't 24 when i got this money, i have to pay taxes.
bullshit, i tell you. complete bullshit.
aedrlfhakdsf i am so frustrated with the system right now.

im legit freaking the fuck out.
i need to fucking calm down.
all i can do is send in my supplemental, and then be done with it. after that i can't do anything and just have to pray to god i get in to vet school.
i shouldn't worry about other people and how they're getting in, just myself.
but oh my god, it's hard...
i don't think people realize how much this means to me. this is my dream. my career. my LIFE.

so i'm home for the night & cuddling with my doggy.
i really really really really REALLY want to take her to school with me next year...but this would require getting a house.
so i've been on craigslist looking at houses for the past hour. problem is, none of them are willing to lease me a house starting in august. they all want to rent the house NOW.
ughhh.
i REALLY want misty at school with me next year and i'm willing to live in a house by myself and pay $600-700/month to do it.
i WILL find a way to make this work.
then, i just have to ensure misty won't eat tucker...

ugh.
i feel like such a failure at life, lately. i honestly don't know if i'm going to get any 4.0's in my classes this semester, and thats scary.
also, organic chemistry is the only class i've ever taken which makes me seriously reconsider my desire to become a veterinarian...

i'd do more than consider it, i'd do it for sure. whether it was their egg or mine, i have no problem at all donating my body so that others can have kids. i love the idea of being pregnant but hate the idea of actually having to raise kids, so it'd be perfect.
on another note, i miss my job. don't know what brought it on, but i've just been thinking about it a lot lately. i was doing so well in not thinking about how much i miss it this semester, and then the past week or so it's just been really bad. sigh =[

and so, the second round of hell this semester begins...
micro exam tomorrow, orgo II quiz on thursday, physics exam a week from today, and orgo I exam a week from thursday.
fun times, fun times.
my sleep schedule is SO out of whack, too. i've been staying up ridiculously late (til like 3 or 4 in the morning) and then sleeping ridiculously late (til like 2 or 3 in the afternoon).
that doesn't work out so well on days like today, when i have an 8am class...
so last night i just didn't go to sleep. i stayed up all night and worked on micro. it was productive, but right now i'm tired as fuck. and, i have orgo lab today which i HATE. ugh.
i can't wait for this semester to be over...really i can't.
i just hope i get out alive, with my gpa intact...
p.s.
i'm buying taylor swift tickets for me, kim & devan for march 26th when they go on sale in about 15 minutes...SUPER pumped for that, let me tell you =]

blah. so tired.
we won the game 24-14 today, that was good.
found dr. hood & lynn tailgating this morning, that was good too. they have sooo much food it's ridiculous. they also had quite a bit of vodka, so i had some...it was fantastic. notgonnalie, dr. hood's hilarious...especially while drunk :)
i should be at dawn's tonight, getting intoxicated some more with her & josh...but alas i am not. ugh. instead i'm sitting on the couch with my cat, and probably will either go to bed early, or do some micro studying. mmyup. my life is exciting...

i suck at being productive.
meh.
i'm currently obsessed with the song "fireflies" by owl city. love itttt.
getting incredibly impatient with this silly vet school application process. for real. i have to wait until like, late february-early march until i find out anything, and um...i just want to know NOW.
i kind of miss writing in this all the time and having a diary of my life but i just kind of am letting it fade away...=\
MSU beat scUM last week in football...it was hardxcore & intense & made me so proud to be a spartan =]
cider mill yesterday with my dad & sister was a good time. i love my dad & i miss seeing him all the time when i'm at school.
next weekend = homecoming, then heading home for the night on saturday to spend the night doing crazy things with dawn & josh & stumpy & fozzie...so pumped :D
i wish i was working at greenfield sometime in the near future. i miss them all so much...thanksgiving needs to get here asap =\

took baby kitten to work today to get him checked out.
he's in fantastic health, about 4 weeks old (maybe a wee bit less), and FIV/feluk NEGATIVE!!! hooray!
we decided his name (temporary, or perhaps permanent...?) is going to be pip.
and, there's a decent sized chance im gonna end up keeping him. so much for one cat only...lol.
