Right, so per usual, I shouldn't be blogging. I shouldn't even THINK about anything but school, graduation, and my upcoming move. More so, school with the plethora of work I have a head of me… 2 presentations, one on histology, one on clonogenic survival (BI2536 bitches!!), a manuscript, a paper, stats exam and my last pharmacology exam ever (I hope). Among other things, social obligations such as salsa dancing, Dim sum, BTN BARCRAWL (June 8th, Wicker Park), Grad College Banquet Dinner and what nots… gosh, my life is so hard!
Anyhow, In two short weeks, so much is happening: I turn 25, I graduate with an MS, Dan, Nan, James & Joey are visiting, my parents are coming, I'm going on a tall ships boat ride, I'm going home to CT for a bit, and then…….
EPIC ROAD TRIP!
