bad popcorn in empty lab

So Im sitting here, all alone in the lab. It is kind of creepy. No one is in the science complex. I could probably run around naked. And I have no idea why I think that when no one is around that I could run around naked. haha.

In reality, when no on is else is around means i can sing with my full voice, where my throat vibrates with lyrics I long to sing

I had coffee today and I have been loony ever since. There was a lecturer that came in and usually when there are talks, there is free brownies and coffee. I had the latter without the former. It was great. Free food rocks.

You know whats sad? I let Liz borrow my favorite book. Time Traveler’s Wife. And she had it in her bag when her yogurt exploded. So now my precious books looks twice as big, with pink edges and slightly smells like puke. And this is what I get for letting someone else witness the grandness of literature. They destroy it!!!

For my thesis, Im looking at attention and memory across older adults. So today I did a whole bunch of recruiting. Im going to have plenty of funny experiences. I love old folks. Today, this made me giggle: “I am undoubtedly a lot older than you, but please use my first name.” He’s so cute.

Ooh my tummy doesnt feel so good. You know what I had for dinner? Bread and cheese and bad pizza. All week long the campus has been celebrating Louis Brandeis’ 150th birthday so today they threw a big party at the student center. And this means plenty of shoving and pulling to get hands on free shirts and free anything. Even if its just garbage. ITS FREE. And we are college kids who survive off of anything free. Although technically speaking, our parents are paying for such events. Ha, funny the way things work.

I have been listening to Sarah Barailles all day long. She has such a strong and powerful voice it just says wow to my ears.

Last night, I talked to Alex. My wonderful Canadian boy. In his msn icon, he looked like a silly mafia boy and I made fun of him. I miss him. In a way, that he can only be missed. He said he is going back to school and that made me even happier. He tried to calm me down with my schoolwork. He left before I could ask him about his girl situation. And its nice to have time flown by, where Im not jealous if he has someone or not. I am happy.

I am in my lab because I have to do a presentation on autism and the brainstem tomorrow. Im going to talk gibberish. It will be great.

Liz really didnt want to write her paper last night, so she decided to break off the “G” from the keyboard. It helped with my procrastination, as we both sat there, playing around with the smallest of plastic things.

Marina has been doing fairly well, I think. Recovering, slowly and surely. Actually it didnt take long for her new ex to IM me. “Hi. How is she?” He had asked in the perfect little window box and I ran away. He doesnt deserve to know. Not now, at least.

Today I realized. I mean it really just came over me. I want to graduate and I am excited to graduate next May. Its nice not to be nervous or scared anymore.

Okay, i really do need to work on the powerpoint….
