So... I don't know if I'm being the biggest nerd ever but I'm going through some withdrawals.. in terms of school haha. I have nothing to do now.. nothing to study for now that I finished the pre-reqs and got into pharm school!

Anyone else feeling remotely the same? haha 🙂

I totally know what you mean. I have been out of school since December and to be honest with you, I miss it. I have been really productive over this long break though. I picked up photography and running. I would suggest being spontaneous and doing things you haven't done before. I recently became a "YES," man. I'm trying to take advantage of this long break before I really get down to business this fall. I just hope the significant decrease in brain activity during my break will not affect my transition into pharmacy school. lol
 
Am I the only one who thought, "Horrible method of birth control" when they read the title? Hope not.

I am definitely having problems with it... No school now for 2 1/2 weeks and I'm going nuts. It wasn't even really hard class either, but anything is good. I was seriously considering taking a Gen Chem class P/NP @ UC Davis over the summer just to cure boredom, but decided instead to pamper the hell out of my wife before she starts law school in the fall.

Working out, pampering wife, working out, pampering wife. My mom tells me that I should think of working out as pampering myself, too, but ever since PT in the Army, working out is just part of the job.

And lots of video games. And working on my Mustang. Ah life is good.

But I miss school so bad...
 
I am sucked into the show Lost. The gf and I started season 1 on Thursday and we just finished it. LOL I love streaming netflix. I procrastinated this week and only got 2 of the 4 things done that I had planned to do. Time to get serious, though...especially about the whole moving thing. :-/

I haven't even started looking for a place for the fall yet, but I only have me to move, and it's only about 150 miles away.

Speaking of NEtflix, Lea, I went ahead and checked it out.

Their streaming selection leaves a lot to be desired but the rest of the it is pretty darn cool!

Yeah, the streaming stuff will be expanded soon (or so they say). I think they started the streaming stuff relatively recently. We stream it through our blu-ray.

EDIT: dude, you're gonna love it. Blockbuster = dead.
 
So I found this while I was blogging a few minutes ago. Yay for creative thought! 🙂

God, I hated Kant. What a boring philosopher. My TA couldn't even explain what the hell he was trying to bring across.

I subscribe to ethical egoism! 😉
 
I know what you mean. No tests, no deadlines, no classes with mandatory attendance.

I HAVE to learn something, I'm not used to just sitting here being stupid lol. I just got my top 300 drug cards in, so I'm working on those. They are really neat lol. That and pulling 30-40 hours at work, trying to save up as much as I can before pharm school starts.
