I'm a pretty normal person- short, slightly athletic and normal looking. My family annoys me but I know, everyone's family annoys them. I feel like I have to be perfect so my dad won't be mad at me. He's doesn't give much praise, but that's the kind of person he is. I like my mom; she works A LOT!! Her only fault is that she sticks up for my little brother too much. He is sort of a jerk. Maybe it is his age, 17, or maybe all little brothers are jerks. Who knows? He thinks he's god because he is in drama. Whatever. Anyway, back to me.
I am a pre-med student not majoring in a science which makes my life hell. It has been difficult to fit in all of my pre-med requirements and take all the classes for my major and take the Japanese required for my major and study for the MCAT and be a half-way active member of my sorority. Pretty much I am always in the middle of a crisis riding high off much caffeine to make up for my 3 to 4 hour sleep. I have the same problems as everyone else. Are my MCAT scores going to be good enough the SECOND time around? Are the admission committees going to look at my not-so-high-GPA and not even consider me? Is college ever going to lighten up so I will actually have time to breathe. I don't mean to bitch or act like my problems are worse than everyone else's but of course to me, they are huge. Is life ever going to be simple? I already know the answer to that- a big NO WAY!!
I am dating a great guy that I alternate between loving a great deal and hating him just as much. He can be such a jerk- just like everyone else's boyfriend, I guess. I admit that I am pretty insecure about our relationship. I worry that Paul will find someone else that has lots more in common with him that I do. Paul is a computer science major, a subject that I just can't relate to. I hate computers. Well not quite hate, I am somewhere inbetween hate and fear. My dad is a computer science professor. my mom is a network manager at NASA. my brother makes movies on his computer and then there's me- I can turn my stupid computer on, type my papers, play my solitaire game and check my e-mail. I sometimes resent how much Paul loves his damn computer. I just want to throw it against the wall until it dies- he loves that stupid thing more than he loves me. Or at least that is how it feels. I could be walking around the room naked and Paul would never notice a thing if he was on his computer- and I'm not THAT ugly. Maybe someday I won't have to compete against a machine.
There's not much more I can say. I fucked up on my MCAT in April so I will be taking it again in August- this month- time sure does fly when this test determines the rest of my life. I have studied all summer for this dumb test- I had to quit my job at the daycare which I absolutely loved. I worked in the baby room. The babies were so cute- I loved my babies. Needless to say, my summer has just sucked, I'm looking forward to going back to school so my vacation can start. I am living with three other very cool people next year in a great place so that should be lots of fun- always someone there to get drunk with. Hope I didn't turn anyone off by complaining so much- I can be sort of demanding and whiny, but lots of fun if you just give me a chance. See ya! Buh-Bye.
