A fast, blurry week

On tuesday, I remember turning to the person beside me in class, and saying I wished it was Friday already.

And suddenly it was?

Oh, I don't know, it was just sort of amazing. Everyone agrees that it's been a hard week, that we've all been working more hours than we wanted to, and supposedly expected to have time to do HOMEWORK too. But really, I can't remember a whole lot' about this week. I know I've been getting lab work done. Although there's that traditional feeling that I've messed things up or am not making the progress on my research that I should be, as well as the feeling that I'm not aware that I don't understand something until suddenly the principle investigator asks me a question and I really have no answer. So embarassment is the key to learning, apparently.

On the brighter side, I almost ran over 3 bikers on Friday on campus--It made me think about Sam, because if he were behind the wheel of his car when some crazy biker decided to zoom out in front of it. . . I think the week would've ended differently. I also went to Marshall's on a quest for shoes, and found two pair of Steve Madden sneakers, one pair in black, and the other in WV colors of blue with gold stripes. It's funny how being outside my state always gives me more state pride than when I'm in the state. I also came across a random black jacket which is perhaps the finest early fall jacket I've ever owned--the sleeves and back are sweater fabric, and they are attached to a black denim vest, and the collar has black faux fur so it's comfy :)

Anyway, I went out with the micro students, and also saw the movie Underworld, which was actually enjoyable, despite my low expectations. Dave is telling me to get off the computer, so I'll finish this later :)
