Exams… Exams… Exams…

Wednesday, February 25th, 2009

Okay so I’ve had a few exams already and so far not hurt by them and yet they haven’t been gorgeous scores either. Still awaiting my Physics exam grade too. I have proven time and time again that when I have a flu and take an exam – I test exactly as though I have a flu (sick as a dog) and take an exam – it’s not very pretty! Oh well – Life Happens sometimes to the best of us. I’ll just keep chugging along and doing my best to ward off the bugs – people are starting to sneeze and cough all over the place again and my ears are STILL ringing – hopefully the doctor can do something for me when I see him tomorrow – the ringing is annoying!! On the bright side – Robin Williams concert is coming right after I kill myself taking 2 more exams on March 5th – which incidentally isn’t one of my most favorite days of the year as it not only marks my dead mother’s birthday – it also marks the anniversary of my sister Debby’s death – what a day March 5th will be… thank goodness March 6th will be Robin Williams to cheer me up and make me life!!

I Can’t Believe It’s February!

Well Tuesday is my first genetics exam, I’ve already had an ecology one that didn’t go as nice as I hoped. Well I have the rest of the semester to fix that one and do well on my other courses. I’ve joined two different Pre-Med groups, one is PPMS (Pre-Professional Medical Society) and the other is Pre-Med AMSA (Pre-Med American Medical Student Association) – glad I found them – not sure how come it took so long – but most likely due to just entering campus last semester and taking 6 classes (19 credits) kept me REALLY busy! I was able to attend a wonderful Pre-Med symposium on campus yesterday as well.

I can’t believe Valentine’s Day is around the corner…

I wrote this poem for it:

VALENTINE © Robin Taylor-Corbridge 2009

Roses are blue,
Violets are red.
I Love You,
Is what will be said.

This day marks a celebration of the heart,
They’ll be plenty of candy bought from Wal-mart.
Even with the economy fairly dull,
I predict it won’t make this holiday null.

People are used to the celebratory way,
They just want to embrace and enjoy this day.
With cards, candy, roses or a just a song,
No matter how you express it, you can’t go wrong.

“I love you my dear”,
Is what you’ll likely hear.
The question you will likely pose,
“Will you be mine?” … That’s how it goes.

Roses usually are red and violets truly are blue,
But we throw them into poems like this anywho.
Here’s hoping this holiday is loaded with fun
Bringing Peace, Love and Joy to Everyone!
