Hmm, what a lovely Wednesday afternoon. I usually try not to be all angst-driven in my blogs, but feel horrible right now. I think it's that "respiratory virus" (at least according to the infectious disease doc) that I got. I really hate throwing up, but I did the other day. I don't know how people take it so easily. I am a little worried about things, finals, lab, the health of friends. I'll get through it somehow, because that's the only thing you have to do in life--take that step forward.
I've got that No Doubt song, I think simple life, stuck in my head right now. Yes, that's all I really want. We had a speaker on alcoholism and miscellaneous substance abuse come in today. She was cool. Seemed like she has been through a lot, partied hard, and had some attitude. Sort of funny to see her in contrast to some of our more tame professors. It's hard imagining them to be friends. Life is interesting that way. You meet so many people who are all so unique in their own way.
People come and go, and it's important to know who your real friends are. Some are just there to hang out with, others will be around for all time. It's hard to know who it is when you're in the moment. OK, I must leave now.....before the sunrises over the river...and the landscape comes into view....hehe.....
