So its a miracle, my insane hard work paid off. 4 A's and a B :) I definitely expected that B to in a different subject, but thats fine. I will take it. So as it stands now - I have 3 A's and 2 B's. I can honestly say that I am so proud of myself. Medical School is something I got under control. Mom and Colby are so proud too!
Today I turned off my alarm (unknown to my conscious mind) and went back to bed and woke up at 9:30a rested and feeling lazy as ever. My friend Jackie came over this morning and got rid of my nasty, white trash roots and made me a beautiful, shiny "medium brown" that Mom mailed down in my last package. I actually straightened too! *after it air dried, of course, since I blew out my blow dryer our 1st day in our new apartment - everything here is 220V (or W or whatever it is) and America is 110.* It looks SO much better, although I already miss my pretty hair. It is just no conducive to living third world.
I hung out with my new neighbor friend, Jeff, and 2 of his buddies tonight for a while. They also took a lazy day and were hanging out on the patio smoking cigars when I took the trash out - so we mingled. It was nice to have some human interaction today since I watched 4 episodes of Army Wives and 2 of Hopkins off of my mom's Tivo.
Colby is having a blast again in WA. He and Zach are hanging out, causing trouble I am sure. I miss him! Only 7.5 more days until he is back. Supposedly, everyone up there loves his ridiculous beard (that I hate) and he is threatening to come back without shaving. Arrrgh. I will shave it in his sleep! I told him I was looking at an old picture (see below) of his all trimmed up and he is SOOOOOO good looking! We will see. Maybe he is just giving me a hard time to ruffle my feathers. I swear, its his favorite hobby.
Nothing much else to report here but that I am already behind. One day off means one day behind. But - such is life (as a medical student). I have been spending a lot of time Skype talking to old friends, and its really made me happy as a clam. I talked to Lindsay, Libby and Erin (& Button, but she doesn't count, I talk to her everyday!) these last few days and I love you girls! Hope everyone is doing well.
Write soon! by Marissa ♥
