Random Notes
I think I'm going to start writing random nice notes on post-its or index cards and dropping them randomly so strangers can pick them up and have an awesome day!

I've been Naughty and Neglecting You
I am sorry dear readers, that I have not updated on you on my life here. Maybe you don't care at all, I don't know. But I'll probably keep this short because I'm about to go to class soon. I was supposed to be going to some farm today but that got cancelled so now we're going to be going over a bunch of random stuff that I don't want to to equally as much as I didn't want to go to that farm. Okay, maybe I'd rather do this a bit more than I want to go to the farm. A small victory.
To be honest, my health feels like it is deteriorating. I won't go into why, but some of my hair is falling out O_O. I don't know if it's due to stress or if it's just because I dyed my hair a few weeks ago. You would think it would have happened sooner if it was the latter, but what do I know. I just really want to get into vet school and have all this nonsense behind me. Once I'm in vet school it feels like it will be breeze because I will finally be in the last part of my schooling. I am noto saying that vet school itself will be a breeze, but at least I will know that I don't have to worry about applying to any more schools. Highschool to College A, College A to College B, College B to college C, College C to Vet school... it's just starting to really try on my nerves.
Not to mention that now I am trying to find a job for the spring semester in something animal related for several reasons. One, because I'm really going to need the money after this European escapade, but also because if I don't get into vet school this year, which is likely, at least I'll be able to have something else on my resume that is animal related. I'd rather get into research or something that isn't at a small animal facility so that I can broaden my range etc. etc. etc. It is definitely a fact that whenever I am doing anything at all, it is likely to be because I'm trying to make my resume look better. Honestly, it's why I do everything! Must. Be. Impressive.... AHHH! I've sent out a few emails but haven't heard TOO much back yet. But I'm working on it.
Additionally, now I'm having problems with the classes I'm trying to take for next quarter, which are starting in like 3 weeks. The semester here ends in mid january (Like the 15th or something), but my school starts on the 11th I think. So, I'm having some issues getting my professors to let me do everything early (which I am more than willing to do) so that I don't have to miss Christmas, New Years (Not as important), and the first week or so of school. Don't forget that I will also have to have the time to move in all of my stuff, acclimate myself, AND I'll have jetlag, so it really is extremely important that I can leave before Xmas. *Crosses fingers*
Also, I am going to schedule my spring semester classes in around 2 weeks, during the first week of November. I am looking to take:
Organic Chemistry II (+ lab)
BioChemistry (+ lab)
Microbiology (+lab)
Modern dance (Because I love to dance, and I need more credits that won't make my brain implode)
So, I'll try to keep you updated!

Swedish Observations:
- They ask how to pronounce funny things; I suppose it's not funny to them but it's funny to me. Ex: Plummage (Ploom-age vs. Plum-age)
- Their hair styles (particularly the guys) are much longer than ours and much more awesome!
- My classes are always in different rooms, at different times, ALL over campus. I don't even have the same teacher everyday, it's almost always someone different. I always have to hunt down my classrooms and I never know who to contact. Sweet, right?

Semi-rage
Okay, I'll admit it; I'm totally PMSing and I'm about to bitch because I feel terrible right now. My tummy hurts and I'm pretty sure some invisible creature keeps punching me in the stomach repeatedly when I'm not paying attention. Also my back hurts (could be because I played a computer game for 16 hours straight...) and my neck hurts. I don't feel good. Also I made terrible rice for dinner. I threw it away.
But that's not what I'm going to complain about, er, well mainly anyway. All I want to know is, what's with people who are always in a good mood? I don't mean people that are USUALLY in a good mood. I mean people who are ALWAYS in a good mood. They never have anything bad to say ever about anyone or anything and they love the world and blah blah blah. I just don't understand it. I literally cannot fathom it. I can sooner understand special relativity and all the weird stuff that goes on with that.
Also, why do people get really terrible tattoos on their necks or faces? Or chests... or anywhere for that matter. I mean do you really want a clover leaf on your bicep forever? Or a really terribly rendered American flag on your chest?
And what about good looking guys that are too short to be good looking? I mean seriously, you have a cute face and maybe I'd be interested if you were sitting down when I met you so I had no idea... but like, just quit it. You're not allowed to exist. I'm sorry.
I'm not really sorry.
BABIES EVERYWHERE!
Everyone quick! Run away! Everyone I know is popping out babies left and right! Top speed baby launchers! AHHHHHHH IT'S AN ARMY OF NEWBORNS!

Hiking
So I finally rolled out of bed after a whole three weeks of basically doing nothing, unless you count Stockholm two weeks ago. I mean I've done a few things here and there but for the most part I have secluded myself to my room and refused to come out. I've mostly been reading or playing games or eating. Or doing nothing. Sleeping? I don't know.
Anyway, so yesterday I went hiking with a club I'm in, Culture Club for my nation (V-dala). We took a bus out of Uppsala only about 20 minutes and then started on our way. I took about 80 pictures. Don't worry, we hiked 19 kilometers. 19! That's equal to about 12 miles. And this means that we didn't just walk it, we went through the bloody forest and all sorts of stuff. The bus back took twice as long, about 40 minutes. So I was basically gone all day and my legs and feet are pretty sore. But I made some new friends and I'm really glad I got out of bed. Of course, when I woke up in the morning before we left I had tried to convince myself to not go, because that's what I do in the mornings, try to convince myself that getting up isn't worth it and i should just go back to bed because I am totally not a morning person. This is exactly what I do when I have to get up to school. It's especially bad because my school is so far away and my lectures are usually online so really there's not a lot of incentive for me to get up and go, although I know I really should. I can't believe I actually got up today for school with my legs hurting like they do. Luckily riding a bike doesn't really use the same muscles as when you're hiking so it didn't hurt as much as I thought it would.
I actually technically had to come to class today because we're going to some farm today from 1-3, and I'm writing this during my lunch hour because I don't have much food left to eat so I'm scrounging. I ate a pear, and lovely, lovely Jonas got me some chocolate as a gift which I found in the fridge this morning with a little bow on it, bless him :P Plus I think I've been eating a lot more because I have been so lazy so when I'm bored I eat. This needs to stop, because while my legs and my butt are looking mighty fine (lol), I may just be gaining a bit of weight in my tummy area. Likely I am just being paranoid, but I haven't actually weighed myself since I've been here so I wouldn't know either way now would I? Anyways I don't have much more to say, except that I'm going to Germany this weekend, so I'll let you know how it goes. Puss Puss (kiss kiss, if you'll believe it).
later: I went to the farm, it was a poultry facility and they cram 8 birds into these small little cages. It made me a bit ill.
