Dateline 11/2/06

Some days you win, and some days you lose. and some days you win but find yourself on the floor of a temporary Red Cross clinic contemplating that victory. And as you may have guessed by the fact that I am writing this, today is one of those days. I completed my first full round of block exams on Wednesday and did some partying yesterday with my fellow IMS students to celebrate. That was topped today by finding out that I had beaten the average on all the exams (acing endocrine physiology as it happens). Tooday's lecture was the introduction to Cardio physiology so it seemed appropriate to celebrate by donating some blood (they were having a drive today by chance). More good news came that my blood pressure was rather low (100/60, my running hobby must be good for my health...). The bad part of this was that I got light-headed and fell on the floor trying to get some cookies after giving blood. And I felt nauseaus for a good 3hrs after as well. Guess thats why I don't give blood very often... Also I managed to buy a pre-smashed lightbulb for the birthday present from my parents that I probably shouldn't have opened early. Also I joined a dodgeball team.

so much crap to do, so little time...
