inside:
i’m not sure how many of you have been following along with my calendar online (either out of morbid curiosity or in search of empathetic entertainment), but it’s directly linked* to my iCal, so is updated often and accurately.
in short, i’m studying so much, i spend the entire day craving sugar and the entire night entertaining vividly colourful dreams.
morning: i get up to go to the gym at 6am and spend maybe an hour on email and internet while eating breakfast and making Brandon makes coffee.
during the day: i’m in classes pretty much all day from 9am to 4pm. with an hour here or there for more textbook reading and flashcard compilation.
evening: maybe another hour of email and/or internet (like now) while Brandon makes dinner (like now). i do the dishes and then am back to the books by 530 or 6pm at the latest. my goal has been to spend 4 hours each night revising** for the comprehensive final exam
bedtime: i have been trying to stay up (and stay productive) until 11pm. but i’m usually in bed by 1030-ish and soundly asleep by 1035-ish.
this week i’m working hard to earn a few hours off for Super Bowl Sunday. the rest of the month i will be working my butt off so i can take some time off with Brigette in the last week of February. i’m really trying to treat these next few months as the marathon that it is, with well-earned water breaks along the way. i don’t plan to burn myself out with ridiculous 18 hour days once our classes are finished after Block 3 or anything, but most days i only plod along via the momentum of routine. without a schedule, i would be adrift in a sea of random facts without an inch of shoreline in sight.

That looks frighteningly like my study schedule, except for that I don’t start studying until 9 or 10 on the weekends, and not until 8:30 on the week days. I just can’t get out of bed when it’s dark out… (yay, Canadian winter!)
Good luck with the studying :) I need to get back to pharm now. (P.S. thanks again for the drug book, I’ve been looking stuff up in it today, to help supplement my textbook and lecture notes!)
Great picture of me being frustrated at the computer : ) Must have been business homework! Wouldn’t be that stressed out learning stuff we ALREADY ; ) learned! HAPPY Friday!
where is the nap time from all that???
It makes me sad that you’re cramming extra stuff into your already jam packed schedule just to spend time with me! *hugs* I booked this trip knowing that you were going to be busy – please don’t stress yourself out over this. :-)
Do you actually use the pool? Can you swim laps in it? I would be in there constantly..
I swim laps in it she does not : ( It honestly is pretty cold right now. The water not the air temperature, because of the rain constantly.
So while reading I was all “hmm sucks to be her right now….crazy schedule..studying…sucky…” then I get to the last photo and I’m all “wait…I wish I was there…it doesn’t suck to be her”. So…in short, life is sweet and sour and combined it somehow works out. I have full faith that you will manage and come out of it all on top. Best wishes. I am 3 weeks away from graduating with my Undergrad and I am enrolling in a Masters program as I type. You inspire me.
