I have been dreading, dreading, dreading this Immunogenetics presentation. Because:
Everyone in this class is brilliant.
Eight of eleven people in this class will have their PhDs by the end of this calender year.
I am so much better at the big picture than I am at the minute-ness that is genetics.
I wish I were joking when I say I have a crush on the professor.

IN SUM: Highly awesome class full of people I respect.

However. I did my presentation today. And, it went fine. Not, like, brilliant, because I didn't look up the structure of GE2 (and OH MAN, I totally had that on my to-do list)- but even with that, the presentation was OK and even more importantly, it is over. (Mogget decided to rebel against the whole "turning on" concept, and took a full ten minutes (TEN MINUTES) to boot, but even that can not sway me, because DONE DONE DONE.

I fully plan on reveling in senioritis from here on out. Ethology? Infectious organisms? Casting? Bookmaking? Dude, whatever I just gave an hour long lecture on modern allergy theory, genetics and therapy to a highly trained audience and it went FINE.

Congratulations on your perfectly fine presentation.

You coming to my b-day party on Friday?

Thank you! I am so excited to be done there are not words.

Re: Your Birthday (Friday!) Not only would I love to come, I've actually written it in on my calender so that I wouldn't forget! Obviously, I totally fail at RSVP-ing. A very happy almost birthday to you!

Bravo! Sounds like you totally deserve senioritis.

Had any chance to read Complications in all this?

[joyouschild.livejournal.com]

Yay! Thank you.

I am about half way though Complications and it vascillates between being the coolest book ever and making me totally sick to my stomach. Because, I mean, obviously doctors need practice, and obviously, practice makes perfect but I'm a pretty staunch believer that everyone deserves the best care, period. Not, like, the best available at the moment, or the best that this newbie can provide, but the best care out there for whatever ails them.

So: Interesting, but thought provoking. (I am entirely not sure why that's a negative.)

Exactly. I think that's what that book really offers -- a picture of what surgery is REALLY like, things that are usually not mentioned b/c they make people uncomfortable.

MAN. I ate those weird things that I picked up right in the door? One of them was like, squishy green with a nucleus of weird, and they all smelled like alfalfa A LOT: they were totally delicious.

ALSO: The Reel Big Fish concert is NEXT weekend, not this weekend. (The twenty second.) ALSO: I have fresh tamarind and it rocks like a rocking thing, and you should have some. ALSO: I think I am adding origami stars to my plane bombing.
