“… like a herd of turtles.” Cody(Tessa’s littermate)’s mom said that while we drove out to Kansas for the 2008 Doberman Nationals in Topeka, KS. It always made me laugh because I’d never heard anyone say that before but also because it was so true. Stopping for gas, Starbucks, walk dogs, food, bathroom… so so true.
The semester really flew. Up until this point in time. It’s the eve of my last normal exam of the semester: Anatomy. I’ve convinced myself that the material isn’t as bad as I think it is so I don’t have to do my normal stressed-out-must-cover-everything-a-billion-more-times-last-day studying. Of course, I’ll still wake up tomorrow at 3 AM and do just that.
This creeping up to the finals is killing me though. I finally did purchase a car a bit ago so that drained the rest of my money so not only is time going by slowly, but I also can’t buy myself coffee or food beyond what I have left which is turning to be just not enough to last me to the very end! It’s really sad… I’ve never been in a situation like this before and I can’t even imagine what it’d be like to be actually starving with NOTHING to eat at all. My situation is no where near as dire as I’m making it sound like. I’m craving chips and I can’t go buy them… I wanted to buy a steak to grill but instead I’ll be making spaghetti & grilling a potato instead. lol
It seems that I will be on a steady diet of spaghetti & mac n’cheese though since that’s about all that’s left. Oh and water. And I’m not the biggest fan of straight water so that’s killing me also. I may have to start drinking coffee black too as I’m getting down to the bottom of my last creamer! Ahhh… yes yes whine whine whine. That’s basically what this blog is… my own personal web space for whining!
In other news… I’ve added a few links to my blogroll. Dolittler has quickly become one blog that I am frequenting a lot these days. Interesting posts there and even more interesting comments. I’m sure I’ll comment about it more later when I’m not actually supposed to be studying… which means it’ll probably be when I’m back in the U.S. – 9 more days!

Hope you did well on your exam. Gotta be nerve-wracking. I am so glad I am not you right now. Hate the whole study/taking tests thing. Gives me a rash just thinking about it.
Funny that you’d never heard that herd of turtles thing. Have to say, a man in one of the offices I worked in used to say it all the time to the point of complete annoyance. Complete with a goofy hick accent. Something else that gives me a rash thinking about it.
Let us know how you did… fingers crossed.
