Somebody loved their first taste of real sunshine!

I think I just died a little.

Lauren tagged me and I like procrastinating =)

TAG GAME: This tag is to get to know the person behind the blog better. As with any tagging game there are rules:

Rule 1 - Post the rules.
Rule 2 - Answer the questions the tagger set for you in their post and then make 11 new ones.
Rule 3 - Tag 11 people and link them to your post.
Rule 4 - Let them know you’ve tagged them.

1. What superpower do you wish you had, and what would you use it for?

I wish I had the power to make time stop whenever I want it to. I would use it to bake more cupcakes and catch up on sleep.

2. Do you have any food allergies?

Nope but I am a consciously picky eater. =)

3. What is your favorite book?

I can’t pick just one…it’s probably a 3 way tie between: Harry Potter (yes, the whole series, and yes, I’m cheating a little…), The Elegance of the Hedgehog, and Oryx and Crake.

4. Do you have any tattoos or piercings? If not, do you want any?

No tattoos and no plans to get one. I have my ears pierced and a cartilage piercing.

5. Do you have any fears or phobias?

I generally don’t like spiders. Or insects. Or being in large expanses of water (oceans, lakes, big pools, etc.).

6. What are some of your favorite TV shows?

Bones, Daria…umm. I don’t really watch much TV. Those are the only ones that are coming to mind right now.

7. What is your dream job?

Surgery-performing-cupcake-baking-corgi-petting-panda-hugging extraordinaire.

8. Which do you prefer: puppies, kittens, baby sloths, or panda bears?

OMGPANDABEARS. That’s not even a real question - there is only one correct answer.

9. If you could go anywhere in the world right now, where would it be?

Spain.

10. How do you feel about pants?

I like sweatpants. I’m generally not a fan of jeans. For as long as I can remember, the minute I got home, I have always changed out of my jeans and I find it weird when other people don’t do the same.

11. What is your current favorite band?

Florence + the Machine.

I’m supposed to tag other people…but I have 2 1/2 followers on here. So if you’re reading this and you like procrastinating as much (or more) as I do — then..umm..answer the same questions? I dunno…I’m not feeling terribly creative right now so I don’t want to come up with new questions…

It’s Sunday night. Except it’s really Monday morning. That means I’m up late doing homework because I lack the discipline and/or motivation to do anything earlier in the weekend. I deactivated my Facebook in the meager attempt to get work done this week, though I hold little optimism that this will help. It is the last week of my undergraduate career and I have so much work to do. But let’s keep this in perspective — it’s the last week of senior year, does anything I do (or don’t do…) really matter?? I didn’t think so…

Anyway, so I had a mini-mental crisis earlier today. I got dinner with a group of friends who are all pre-med/med school-bound in the fall and we spent a pretty hefty portion of our time talking about medical school. When I got back to my apartment, the mental screaming started in which I asked myself: why haven’t I traveled more? Why haven’t I gone to more concerts? Why haven’t I gone to more museums? Why don’t I know more languages? Why haven’t I read more books? Why haven’t I written a book?? Why haven’t I run more? What am I doing? Why am I wasting so much time in school?? When is my life going to start??

So I leave you all with a video of a live performance from one of my favorite bands — The Clash — performing one of my favorite songs — Train in Vain — while I sit here and try to finish writing my paper that is due in 4 1/2 hours and lament the fact that I have never, and will never, see Joe Strummer perform live.

Lastly…I just remembered a random anecdote from my life. In my 8th grade English class, we had to do a presentation on a band and write a persuasive essay discussing why we thought that band should be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. A certain blond-haired, blue-eyed skater kid (on whom I had the biggest crush) wrote about The Clash. I remember thinking he was so cool for liking The Clash. All the cool kids listened to punk music and wore ripped Ramones shirts and dirty Converse. I was never that cool, but it didn’t stop me from wanting to reach such heights within the 8th grade social stratosphere.

Anyway, I just learned that this blond-haired, blue-eyed skater kid died about a month and a half ago. He’s not the first of my classmates to have died and he wasn’t the last…

All the more reason to wrap up my academic pursuits — for which I am eternally grateful to have experienced and would not change anything about them if I could — and start figuring out my real life.

Sometimes I wish someone would do this to me. :P

Exit loan counseling.

I owe a lot of money.

And I just ate a lot of rolls out of sheer panic.

But I feel better now. Probably because of the rolls. Nomz nomz nomz…

Struggles.

Finish my work…

….ooooooor live feed of the Boston marathon?

Huh. I think we know which one is the winner here.

It’s late and I’m procrastinating.

I’m trying to make my biochemistry review sheet so I don’t make a massive fool of myself in front of the students this week. Dearest roomie is desperately trying to get my struggle bus back on track, but I’m one Rockstar deep and it’s approaching 2 AM. There is no hope for me, just leave me here to perish…

Anyway, I need to review bacterial photosynthesis with the students and I am trying so. so. so. hard to figure out which side of the membrane is which. Thylakoid space? Stroma? Intermembrane space? Which side is periplasmic? Which side is the cytosol? WTF?? WT actual F???

And then it hits me like a metric ton of struggle buses. Bacteria don’t have chloroplasts. Herp de-derpity derp. I really hope you guys understand bio stuff so you all know what that means. But in case you don’t — the fact that bacteria don’t have chloroplasts is like super duper Bio 101 stuff. It literally (as in not figuratively — I literally mean the literal definition of “literally”) gets covered on Day Numero Uno in just about every single intro bio course that has ever existed. I would like to sleep soon. And graduate soon. And go to Europe soon. But failing the last two, I’ll settle for the first for now…

"You believe in yourself or you don’t. The longer you spend deciding whether or not you’re good at what you want to do, the more time you waste not doing what you want. When not doing what you love is more painful than overcoming the doubt in your ability to do it, you, my brothers and sisters, are marching down the right path. Now, whatever you do, Don’t. Stop. Marching."
