Mmm...sweet, sweet avoidance.
I did go through the lectures once today, though. All three of them! 3 lectures and then we have an open book final. Ehhh?
I am really sick of this upper respiratory thing I've got going on. I've been hacking away since New Year's or a bit before. I don't feel sick but my nose is full of goo and I keep coughing. Maybe I have a sinus infection? Or tuberculosis. I should probably go to the doctor someday but what are they going to do? Give me antibiotics that I won't want to take because this cold is not as bad as the yeast infection I'd get from taking said antibiotics or put me on steroids...which will give me 'roid rage...except not because that's not the right kind of steroids. Bleh. I miss when my immune system prevented me from getting sick for nearly two-and-a-half years. What happened?!
Aaron's brother's wife drives me crazy sometimes. She has a BS in Biology and a masters in both Library Science and Museum Studies. And student loan debt she likes to complain about. And she works in a game store making pretty much minimum wage. Eh??? OK, I get that it's hard to find your dream job but...a game store?! And I can see having a silly job that you're overqualified for if you can afford it or even if you love it but she makes the most ridiculous complaints about that job too! I can't handle it! Like being SUPER upset that she had to do some planning for an event on her supposed day off and then whining that she wanted to go home during another event. Oh, boo hoo. These aren't legitimate complaints! It's a cushy job! The worst thing that happens is that people are upset because stores don't carry Cards Against Humanity! This is not the real world! You're not being yelled at, you're not cold, you're not exhausted on your feet all day, your job doesn't involve life or death situations! And believe me, I get complaining about a job! It's a normal, healthy thing to do! But her complaints are just so frequent, inane, and childish! You're a grown-ass woman, older than I am! Put on your big girl panties and just DEAL with it!
I'm such an asshole.
In related news, I think vet school has indeed made me become a bit bolder. I feel like I've become feistier and have more of a take no shit attitude than I did before. This has been a slow progression, but I see the differences. I'm better at saying complete bullshit to people, approaching professors in labs when others don't want to, and not caring as much if I say something wrong or somewhat stupid in front of both my peers and my professors. I'm not quite where I want to be and still have quite a few moments where I just want to hide behind classmates or in corners and cry a little bit, but I am so much better than I was even a few years ago. I like it.
So I saw this image on Etsy today:
Yowza! I love the effect of her hair and lipstick.
It reminded me of how much I enjoy dying my hair darker than its natural color. I haven't dyed my hair in years but I may dye it soon just for funsies.
I also thought, since Valentine's Day is coming up, I should practice a sultry glance as the model is. My attempts haven't been stellar, but I think I'm making progress.
Attempt #1
Too jovial and eager?
Attempt #2
Too I was drugged and probed by by aliens and I just woke up from it?
Attempt #3
Too sexy librarian meets Cousin It?
I'll get the hang of it someday!
Off I go. Must study and shower. Wheee.
