orange teeth?

leaves are evil.. especially when there are a ton of them. what did we ever do to them? we're just walking to our own destination, minding our own business, making no eye contact to any thing but the ground.. and here these leaves are flying around and basically smacking themselves into our faces. why do they hate us? are they mad? i think they should hate the trees! the trees are the ones who don't want them anymore! we try not to get into anyone's way, so can they please leave us alone? please? please?

i learned that when squirrels die, their two front teeth turn orange. but dead woodpeckers have pearly whites. wow. what do squirrels do in their life time to make their teeth turn orange at death (btw, squirrels are smart and evil.. just like mice)? either way, how those facts are going to help me with any of my three tests (pharmacology, pathophysiology, and medical/surgical) before thanksgiving, i have no idea.. =(

i wonder what it means when you can micturate for 2 minutes straight. no interruptions. just one long continuous flow. no, not frequent uresis.. but simply those every two hour (q2h), regular intervals of urination. it can't be a good thing.

is wearing slings the "in" thing to do now? i THINK my professor injured his arm because it was in the sling one day, but there was no cast. two days later his arm is out of the sling but he's still wearing it around his shoulders and waist! five days later he's wearing the same sling but still not using it for it's sole purpose. okay maybe there's no sole purpose anymore.. but i'm very curious to see what is up. it's really an important matter because it's distracts me from learning and listening to him lecture. seriously, i need to know!

i don't like titles. why do we have to come up with titles for these things.

2 more conversations:

1) TERRIBLE
me: i want an even number of children. i want 4 children.
jared: what if you accidentally had a 5th one? would you have to have a 6th one?
daniel t-"cluck" lau: you should sell it. but wait till it gets a little older, it'll be worth more if it can hold a gun.

TERRIBLE TERRIBLE TERRIBLE.

2) clinical at the VA Medical Center

weird old man: i just have to say, what is a 16 year old doing here in the VA? are you a doctor?
me: heh heh.. no i'm a nursing student.
weird old man: well you're a very good looking 16 year old nursing student. keep up the good work!

HELP, MOMMY!

apparently your brain uses up about 20-30% of the oxygen of your total body consumption. it simply uses up .10 of a calorie per minute, but 1.5 calories while you're studying. this makes me happy to know that those long hours in the library do not go to waste (well maybe it does)! that each minute of studying is another calorie burned! be motivated. there is hope. let those calories burn.

SHOOT. i just saw another mouse in andy and dan's apartment! i'm telling you, they coming for revenge!!

when i think about my middle school days, teeny boppers, dingly key chains, and distorted grammar (lyk, haiii! wussup? how r u? lyk omg, i miss ya and luv ya! muahzzz!! ~~xoxoxox~~ >.<) come to mind. you might think i'm going to shake my head at them, but in actuality, i think their language is quite effective for text messaging! for example, i have 160 characters to use for one text. if i go over, i automatically start a new text. it doesn't matter if it's 161 or 162 characters, i will be charged for 2 text messages. so in attempt to save those precious 10 cents that could be used in case of emergency, i was able to transform a 203 character text to exactly 160. here's the new message: wen u're dun lets go 2 costco & buy da rest of da stuff. den 2 da lib? hav a gr8 time w/ ur parents! & do u hav my list of dings 2 buy? ha dun u luv my grammar. other than the fact that almost every other word is underlined in red, i was able to send this message (and the last line!) with only one text. it was a great feeling. i feel quite proud. thank you teeny bopper days. =)

IS IT TRUE THAT MAE IS PERFORMING TONIGHT AT AFTERHOURS!?!

conversations

i'm not very good with updating blogs but did you know that colored socks may cause tinea pedis, also known as athlete's foot? that makes me sad considering i have 30+ pairs of colored socks. (costco rocks!) it's something about the dye causes the fungal infection. that's all i know because i don't feel like looking into this more, but you can if you want. and if anyone doubts my sources, there's proof right here in my medical/surgical success book for nursing. you can take a look, but i'm not telling lies about fungal infections just to make people wear white colored socks! (but that would be a good way to scare people into doing things..)

so i still use andy and dan's toilet since the mouse incident. i honestly think that one day the mouse is going to shoot out the toilet while someone is occupying it. he is going to take revenge for all the torture that he was put through. or she. WATCH OUT.

i have been busy.. really busy. but instead of easily spreading out the last month of my life like melted butter, here are a few conversations that may show ya'll how its been:

1) a random e-mail

hey denice,
so i was looking at my gmail, and i see this email from you, and then i look a the advertisements above and it says "http://www.myplussizebra.com/ -D, DD, DDD, E, F, G, H, I, J, K Style Starts with the Plus Size Bra" that just made me laugh cause i was just like.. what the heck?

2) another e-mail

Hi Denise,
Would you consider a co-op blah blah blah..

3) and another e-mail

Dear Danice,
I have reviewed your resume and suggest you apply online at our website, http://www.chsd.org/, for blah blah blah..

4) during class

me: i think his [our pharm professor] pants are about to fall off
caroline: i'm glad this is what we pay attention to in class

5) studying the night before an exam

liner305: alright i feel like i should start to study
i have strong feelings that i should
me: how strong are they
liner305: now if only i convince my arms to lift the notebook, turn the page and my eyes to look at the words
and my head to stay awake
we'd be in business
thats a lot to ask though
me: wow that is a lot
liner305: it really is
me: i will be really proud of you if you get to it
liner305: its on my lap

me: yup
liner305: so what are you telling me GI cardio and resp?
me: cardio and resp
liner305: did we already test on GI
wow am i taking this class??
me: you are so funny
liner305: denice this is sad... i honestly do not remember being tested on GI...
liner305: seriously... it was on the test??
me: now i'm doubting whether we did or not
liner305: KaTyDiD491: im looking for GI in a study guide
KaTyDiD491: we did GI on the second exam
Liner305: fascinating
me: haha good to know

6) something else that's random

da: did i ever tell you what i think of your blog's web address?
me: what
da: everytime i see the link, i'm reminded of fake emails from chinese "business"
"Hi friend. How are you today? My name is Zhen Zong. I am principal manager for major clothing manufacturer in Goungzhou. I would like to extend business proposal to you"

so if you didn't get it from the conversations above, my life has been filled with co-op searching and "studying." maybe that's why i haven't posted in a while.. this is sad. lets go do something fun! who is up for tandem bikes!?!?! please? or having a bubble party????
