I took a 3 hour biology exam that was written to take an hour.
Why?
Because I write really slowly.
For the past 3 days, all i’ve been doing is studying and living and breathing developmental biology and biological processes and trying to answer “how does this happen” questions because that’s how my exam was structured, and I like that it wasn’t memorize and regurgitate.
I just didn’t realize that it would carry over into my social life.
I’ve been toying with the idea of getting my hair cut short, like ear length. I told my roommate this over dinner, and she asked how i was going to cut my hair.
I was confused, and answered “with scissors”
what she really meant was what length/style.
I though she meant the process. It didn’t even occur to me that she meant the style.
fail.
while i couldn’t get him to support Obama (it’ll happen when hell freezes over, and this is why we don’t talk politics in my house), i at least got him to realize that he should not vote on party lines (he is a republican, but has jsut realized that he is not a conservative) because the current republican candidates suck (dear santa, i want new, sane, tolerant candidates).
he is now voting for Count Chocula from the Vampire party.
i consider it a victory.
