Oh my gosh. Oh my goodness. Oh dear lord, I just realized I did not put a new post last week. Wow, sorry, forgive me? I'm always so inconsistent with blogs and keeping up with them. It's a horrible habit, and I really should get rid of it. It's just that every time I tell myself I'm going to do something, it somehow leaves my mind. Swear I have ADD. I am diagnosing myself - completely normal. Actually, that just reminds me of something my friend Janice said to me. She actually called me a "paradox," although I don't think that's the right word to describe myself. Haha, she said that it was because I'm an adrenaline junkie but yet I'm so small. I love listening to hard core metal and hard core rap and I'm also somehow miraculously passing my classes despite the fact that I'm such a horrible procrastinator. She said that it's kind of weird (in a good way, she said) that I'm a little aggressive, but I'm so in love with animals and cutesy things. I don't know, I called her weird for calling me a paradox.
It's a bit funny because just seven days ago, I told myself that I wasn't going to procrastinate any longer. But here I am, one week late on a blog post and preparing myself to fix up my lab notebook for my organic chemistry II lab tomorrow. Oh yeah, I also gotta finish my Animal Behavior notes due on Tuesday...oh! And I also have a quiz tomorrow morning that I really should study for. I'll study for it later. Promise.
Okay, reading through this, I just realized how relaxed I am with school. Seriously, I'm not taking any of this seriously, and I really should. That's bad. That's very bad. Alright, starting tomorrow, I'm definitely going to start taking school a lot more seriously. Maybe my procrastinating will stop. Oh gosh, I wish. Ya know, I tried doing some homework earlier, but I ended up falling asleep in the middle of it, despite the fact I had more than enough hours of sleep the night before. /Seriously, I knocked out last night! My friends and I went to Tysons Corner mall yesterday (oh my gosh, did I mention how much I love driving in the snow?) and we came back on campus around 8:30 or 9:00PM? Sometime around then...either way, we came back around that time, and I just laid down on my bed and KNOCKED OUT! Seriously, I didn't wake up until 6:30 this morning. It was a good sleep. Like, really good sleep. It was nice.
Anyways, expect another post this week in an attempt to make up for a post-less last week, so bye-byes!

Procrastination, schools, and a story
I have a problem with procrastination. Like, bad problem. It's such a bad problem that last week, I pulled two all-nighters because I was too lazy to do my homework when I actually had time. Even today I had a quiz in my Psychology class, and I didn't even study until I was on the shuttle on my way to class. But hey, I'm pretty confident I did well on that quiz - it wasn't hard at all. Oh! And I also have my first exam in my Organic chem class tomorrow...I should start studying for that after I post this. Although, I'm pretty confident on that exam too.
On another topic, I'm already looking at Veterinarian schools even though I really shouldn't worry about that until I'm in my third year...which is next year, so I guess I'm actually ahead of the game now? Well, first for everything I guess. Anyways, there's this school in London, England that I really want to go to. It's called the Royal Veterinary College and the main reason why I want to go is because it's the only Vet school that offers a "Wild Animal Health" program. I just have to take that program! Especially since I want to be a veterinarian at a zoo! Isn't that program perfect!? If they offered it in the states, I would have been all over that school, but sadly, they don't. The problem with the Royal Veterinary College though, is that it's super expensive for overseas students! Well, that much is obvious - it's around the price of Stevenson University for overseas students, and for actual UK citizens, it's like, $13,000! It's so cheap! Plus, the GPA requirement is a 3.4! That's so low! Besides the price of the school, everything about RVC is perfect!
Maybe I'll just take out a bunch of loans just to go there....
Oh and hey, I have a new favorite short story. Our class actually read it last week. After reading over it a couple of times after class, I really started liking it, a lot. Okay, so the story is "The Hit Man," and I'm really liking it. I really didn't talk in class about it because, to be honest, I saw the structure of the story, and completely skipped over it the night before class. But, after reading it after class, I really came to like it. It's a bit of morbid thought, but does the Hit Man symbolize the Grim Reaper? I mean, huge black hood, killing people, picking up his date in a hearse, the "three-headed dog" when he set the leaves on fire, etc, etc. Eh, whatever he symbolizes, I just really like the story.
This is a bit of a long entry, but I'm going to go now because I kind of have to start studying for my exam tomorrow!

A lil' intro
'Ello everyone, how are you?
Well, I suppose I could start off with a little introduction on myself, but I kind of don't really feel like it right now. What I do feel like starting off with is how I'm pulling another "all-nighter" tonight! Just the second week of school too...but I guess sleep is just a sacrifice I gotta make to get good grades. And hey, coffee is like, my new best friend (it's so delicious, but my roomie is starting to accuse me of being a coffee addict which I am vehemently denying...'cause I'm really not, trust me). Oh hey, this little "rant," I guess if you can call it that, just reminded me of a picture that I saw on tumblr (oh my goodness, I love tumblr too, you don't even know)! The picture was really simple, but was so accurate, seriously! It was a triangle; at the top angle, it said "social life," on one of the bottom angles, it said "good grades," and the last angle said "sleep." Right in the middle of the triangle, it had big, fat letters saying "You can only choose two." I guess I chose good grades and social life, because I am going to be seriously sleep deprived tomorrow.
Alrighty, so I just wanted to start off with that because dang, I am going to be drinking so much coffee tomorrow.
Well now, I guess I'll go on with a little introduction with myself (if, really, any of you are still reading...I feel like this is going to be a bit long because my sleep deprived mind just wants to really type everything down and now.) So hi, again, I'm Michelle, I'm in my second-year at Stevenson, and I'm a biology major. I'm full Filipino (ironically, I've never even been to the Philippines...), I've pretty much been around the whole world (before when plane tickets were just a bit cheaper) and then my dad was finally stationed at Japan. I grew up there and I do know a little Japanese, but I'm not completely fluent (it's also ironic because I know more Japanese than I do Tagalog, which is the Filipino language). By the way, is this font too small? Sorry for that! So, I'ma go now, and I'ma do my Animal Behavior homework (that will ultimately take up my whole night), and I'ma let you guys go for the night.
G'night! (I also like making gifs, so ya know, if you want one, I can make it :D)
