Can Life Get Much Worse?

I SUBMIT THAT IT CANNOT!

Yeah... I'm sick of smiling and pretending that I don't care anymore...

But currently that has been pushed to the back of my mind due to the other GIGANORMOUS stresser in my life... School.

Plus the end of spring semester is bringing two HUGE essays, one HUGE project (that she claimed should only take a few hours... HA!), and another test... oh yeah and that is just English. In Physiology I still have one more huge test, 2 quizzes and then the final.

All this stuff is due in the next 5 days and I have not procrastinated anything! The past few nights I have been up til after midnight working on my 10 page essay plus I still have class all day and have been periodically working on the rest of it. And the plan for tomorrow is to devote 9am-6pm studying for my physiology test and then hopefully taking it (and getting an A). While I have until Monday to take this test, I am hoping that by taking it tomorrow I will have enough time to devote to the other junk.

This is the point in my life when I am seriously questioning my career aspirations. Why can't I do a pointless major and plan to only become a mom like the thousands of other girls here? Plus then I could live by the motto "C's GET DEGREES"! No more stressing over getting A's! Of course then I would lose my scholarship, be forced to get student loans and be seriously in debt by the time I graduate. But hey! I am going to marry a rich doctor, lawyer, business man or dentist... right??? Haha...

Well luckily (or unluckily when I feel like being a slacker....) my parents instilled me with a very hard working and competitive drive. And that part of me refuses to not be the best in the class. I have to beat all the pre-med men in my class who look down upon me and for some reason think that because I am a pretty girl that I am retarded.

(Ok so here is a story I should tell you...
There is a group of four super pre-med guys in my Physiology class. Like the type who have been drawing blood since they were five and have no social life. They constantly are volunteering and blessing all of us with their superior knowledge. For some reason whenever I am going to use a machine, get a solution, and whatever else... They feel that they can just step right in front of me. Even going as far as taking the the solution out of my hand! Excuse me! I am sorry I take a while longer measuring because I don't spend hours and hour perfecting my measuring skills! Plus I can just tell by the way they look at me like I am a retard or the look of shock on their face when I am the only one in the lab who knows the right answer. My favorite moment was when my TA told us that me and my lab partner were the only ones who got a 100% on our quiz. TAKE THAT SUPER PRE-MED MEN!!!!)

Ok anyways... I have been blessed with smart genes from my parents and grandparents, which are a really big help. So i should probably quit complaining because I know there are people out there who have to spend much much longer than me trying to get the grades that I get... But today I am just sick of studying and just don't really care.

OMG. Can Kenna Get More Whiny? I submit to you that she cannot. Look on the bright side, at least you don't have a mullet.

Aren't you glad you have a brother-in-law to sympathize with you? He's so tender...

Best of luck with the projects/tests. It will all be over soon! And I don't REALLY have a mullet. At least I won't after I get done with it today.
