"Goggle Eyes and a Troubling Hunger..."

So it's a week to spring break.

This semester I: got my first F on an exam; was in a fashion show to raise eating disorder awareness; was interviewed for said fashion show, and announced in the interview that I was in recovery for an eating disorder, talked about some warning signs, some reasons it was a truly sucky experience and you should not get one, many reasons the media and fashion industry encourage eating disorders, America's double standards, stuff like that, which I have never talked about in a personal context before, at least certainly never when it was going to be printed in a newspaper many of my fellow students will read; had a boyfriend for a little over twenty-four hours; had a girlfriend for a little under a week; dissected and collected the blood of ten live fish in fifty-five minutes (it was amazing, God willing I will do it again some day); fell in love with a boy I have no intention ever of going out with; wrote a paper while delirious and got an A on it; started Organic Chemistry; got into an upper-level sosh class that was technically closed to freshmen and realised that it was not worth the trouble I had taken, as it makes me want to rip out my brain and throw it at the teacher, who is the most annoying person in the entire world; made a friend I want to keep for-ever; wrote a performance evaluation in Latin for extra-credit; found out that people will believe horizontal three-bladed razor cuts were made by crashing a bike if you tell them so; wrote at least four poems that I really like; reached a peaceable place with my own death; realised that I do not want anything to stop me from being a doctor and I will manage it no matter what; settled into my skin.

None of which were without their trials.

Midterms: O.chem and sosh on Friday, bio lab Thursday, none elsewhere.
Weather: Beautiful.
Overall sense of peace and accomplishment: Fairly good.

So, this has nothing to do with your post, but. I'm in the middle of downloading DVD files of last spring's Camelot concert, the one with Fran Drescher as Morgan Le Fay and a Mordred who looks like this. And I figured that if anyone I knew would want to see it, you would. :D Want it? I can either give you the links or make you a DVD and thus save you the downloading (OMG SO MUCH DOWNLOADING).
