taking a little break....

have been like studying so hard since last Monday... it's like a full week of hardcore studying.

managed to finish a lot of stuff

like i caught up with bio reading though new readings are coming up and i can't start it right now...

just finished stats hw and reading is still ahead of class schedule. so i'll say stats is going well

one page from my stats homework...

@@

i literally spent 2 days doing my stats homework!!

yeh anyway, my PHG is so fucked up right now.

i'm like behind so many lectures and i get like more than 10 papers to read and the midterm is tomorrow

so obviously i'm doomed...

and the professor asked for my class schedule so we can arrange lab hours. i sent him my schedule.

but he hasn't reply since like wednesday...

;( 

well i still managed to go work out on friday afternoon and flickred to stay connected with my flickr friends.

yeh... i'll still be super busy next week.

crows!!

after watching several videos of crows
they're one of the most intelligent animals; the smartest of all birds!!

i decided to do an experiment myself!
i would carry some crashed crackers with me when i go to class everyday from now on
and if i spot a crow, i'll feed some of cracker to it and hopefully by doing this everyday, some of them will be able to recognize me!!
so exciting!!

crows are so cute!!

snow photos still :P

Proton pump inhibitor

so i think my stomach kind of depend on PPI after weeks of medication.
so as soon as i stop taking PPI, rebound occurs... meaning that my stomach actually produce more stomach acid than usual.
and i think that was what happened few days ago.
i stopped taking PPI sometime last weekend and so my stomach start producing more acid
on wednesday night I had some energy drink which contains carbon dioxide and acid and caffeine which will stimulate acid production
then it's the acid reflux onset....
guess i have to start taking PPI again.

friday

today was beautiful! so sunny!!
like everyone was out there and enjoying the sunshine.
red square and quad were so packed!
and of course i was out there enjoying the sunshine.

biology midterm was ok i guess.
like i had no problem going through the questions
but not like "oh I'm totally going to get a full score on it"
anyway, we'll see how it goes.

and went work out after my last class of the week.
ran and pulled weights!
i want more muscles!!! >:(

what else... yeh probably gonna be busy studying this weekend.
have PHG midterm Monday...
hmmm... i'll probably go to library to boost my efficiency.
so i don't have to worry about not getting things done.

thursday

at least i'm not feeling like i have to be beside a toilet or something right now.

i'm think my stomach is getting better.

only had a few crackers and half of a sandwich for the whole day...

don't feel like eating AT ALL!!

yeh i'm at the library again! because i'm much much more efficient here than in my room

hopefully i'll be able to finish my bio review tonight!

then after bio midterm tomorrow, i have to study for PHG.

oh the professor from the research lab i'm applying said "Excellent!" after i emailed my critical analysis to him. he asked me to email him my class schedule and fill out a volunteer form.

i guess that means I'M IN!!!?

oh and got my stats midterm back today. i got 19.5 over 21.

so it's like 92 on the percentile. :)

my hard work paid off!

just cut the card i found days ago into pieces

on my way to odegaard I held the pieces in my palm and threw a few pieces into a trash bin at a time.

there's no way it's going to get into the wrong hands!

:((((( horrible night...

Had the worst stomachache since, I dunno last quarter before I started my medication.

Came back to my dorm last night at around 2 something am. And then I started feeling like throwing up...

I dunno if it's food poisoning or what. Or if it's acid reflux... i had an energy drink when i'm studying at the library and i didn't even finish the whole bottle. maybe it's the energy drink??

though I'm feel better now but still not completely normal...  Why? Stomach... why?

Wednesday

Woke up this morning at 7 am and saw light glowing from my alarm clock and then I recognized the noise from heater! The power is back!!! And I just got out o my bed and start plugging all my electronics back to the plug. (I unplugged because I don't want possible sudden impulse to destroy my stuffs) And adjusted my alarm clock to 7:07 am :) And yeh fell asleep again and my day starts later at 11:48 am which was too late!! I took a quick shower dressed up and quick walked all the way to Kane hall. Man almost late to class. Im now waiting for my bio lab. Gonna be done around 8:20 pm. And then im thinking of getting my stuff and study at library tonight. Since 1. I'm way more productive in library. 2. I like how the library feels like a little club where it's still so vibrant even though it's 1 am. Like I can feel the same way as people who are also studying so late in the night. Yup. I'm done with all the paper btw. I'm reviewing biology right now... And then after bio midterm I have to review public health genomics...

I walked around Stevens court and felt like there's no one. It's like a ghost town. Did my little adventure and yeh it was fun, but kinda boring... And where are my roommates? Are they asleep yet? Or they went home already?? Oh I ended up playing with flash and long exposure. One or two of the photo turned out pretty cool!! It's like a continuous action shot!! The Seattle city light people are still outside working on the problem... Dunno when it's going to get back to normal... Ok I'm going to bed now in the dark. Have to wear more layers cuz its only 15.7 Celsius inside my room. No power no heater...

Back to the "dark forest"

Studied at odegaard the whole night. Left library at 1:30 am And back to Stevens court which is covered by complete darkness. Thanks science I haven flashlight with me. So I can navigate through the court and building. I felt so advanterous right now lol!! Wanna walk in the dark forest!! I dunno ify roommates are back or not...
