Well another year is about to pass us again. So what happened that's worth reflecting? Well, as always, with no particular order:
1. College! Wow there's so much to say about that. First thing is that there are always so many choices! Wow. The school part wasn't so different as before, just that you went to class less often, but each class was so much longer. Roommates are, well, roommates. Apparently, though, I missed out on the most poplar event at school though, but I guess I can accept that since I don't really do that many popular things. I also went to the All-American Rejects concert with Blackwood and some other people. That night was a lot of fun. Blackwood visiting me was definitely a plus that helped me get through those 6 long consecutive weeks at school. I'm also volunteer at the medical center. Specifically I work in the out-patient anesthesiology department. It's so much fun. Especially when the old people come in for their visits. The nurses that I work with are all very nice. Sometimes, when I got bored, they let me go to the Spine Center or the Maternal Care floors, which were really fun. It was always busy at the Maternal Care floor. I think that I want to switch to the neurology and psychiatry department next quarter if it's possible. Also, after a quarter, I still don't know what my major is. That is probably not a good thing. I know I'm a biology major right now. Well, I think I am, but I want to change to a microbiology major. I'm also a psychology major for sure, but the thing is to graduate with both of those majors, I'll have to take an additional 40 some credits, which is like an entire year :0 I also thought about doing an interdisciplinary major of neurobiology, but I'm not sure how that'll look since I'll have to make my own major, which is kind of weird to do at a school like OSU. So in other words, a much needed meeting with my advisor.
2. Summer of Freedom! Well, partial freedom. So the first few days of summer were lots of fun. I forget which day school ended, but basically I hung out with friends a lot. There were lots of movie nights with Julia, Marie, Angela, Tiff and Blackwood, and lots of graduation parties. The best movie that I watched this summer (actually the entire year) was definitely Dark Knight. I don't think that words could express my feelings during the first viewing. I definitely want to watch it in IMAX sometime, when it gets re-released into theaters at the end of next month. I went camping again at Indiana Dunes. Julia and I woke up at around the same time again, as usual, and went for walks. I really liked that. The waves at the Dunes were really strong that day so only Julia, Marie and I went into the water. It was also very very cold, but still lots and lots of fun to feel the waves crash against you. Dragon Boat Festival was about the same as usual. My team tried to get really competitive this year, but I don't think it worked out too well. I think the biggest trip this year was to China. At first I remembered I didn't want to go because I was going to lose a month of hanging out with my friends, but then when I got back there, I remembered that I didn't want to come back to Sylvania. I still secretly chuckle at the irony. Staying at that island was probably one of the best three days of my life. So much fun. I miss my relatives in China. What I probably miss the most about that summer, though, is the time that I got to spend with Julia. It was so much fun just being around her. It just always made me so happy.
3. So I feel that it's really important that I expanded my music selection this year, especially after I got to school and listened to Pandora a lot, though it really only helped me find one song that I can't stop listening to. So from my roommates I picked up Angel's and Airwaves. I picked up Coldplay from someone, but I forget who exactly, since so many people listen to them. I finally downloaded the Boyce Avenue CD, which were really good, though Blackwood is convinenced that they're country. I started listening (or in other words, I now have the entire album for) Boys Like Girls, though that was definitely after everyone else, lol. I must say "Thunder" did invade my most played songs list quite quickly. I didn't have a complete 180 when it comes to listening to music, but I did download some techno (a little bit of Tiesto and a few Basshunter songs that I stole from Angela). Now that I write all that out, this paragraph doesn't seem very important, lol. Oh well.
Lunch time! I guess I'll figure this out later.
