Summary of my morning: First, wake up late and find Mitch the guppy dead. Get to work, and subsequently get yelled at over the phone by a doctor for 5-10 minutes for doing my job correctly. Spend the next 20 minutes crying. Finish working and go to the grocery store. Return home to eat ice cream and watch Love Actually. Awesome.
This afternoon boyfriend and I returned Mitch to the petstore and got another fish (14 day no questions asked return policy). Unfortunately, petstore boy gave us the first fish he could catch, aka the slow sickly looking one. I have a feeling we might be going back within the next 14 days.
Luckily the past two days were better. After MCATing, a friend in KC and I went shopping, and I spent way too much money. The next day boyfriend decided we needed a new television (even though we have two that work just fine). Of course, new tv wouldn't fit in our entertainment center, so we also had to buy a new tv stand. Buh-bye tax rebate, but our living room looks fancy.
My goals for the rest of break are to clean out the extra stuff around the house that we don't need, write the two papers I have due in April, and hunker down on my presentation. The presentation is in two weeks (where has this semester gone?) Let me just say that everyone in my group is lusting after that award money. Hello $7500!
Also, new roommate's contract was extended for another month, which means I think she's staying with us for a few new weeks. It's good because she's nice, and a little extra cash is nice. It's bad because sometimes I just want my uninterrupted weeknight routine. Luckily the good outweighs the bad.
Now, as long as I don't get reamed out again by a rude physician, this break should be pretty decent. I anticipate movies and video games interfering with my goals....
