With the completion of my test this afternoon, I'm done with my last round of exams before finals for my second to last semester as an undergrad student at USI. Now baring a complete collapse, I'm set to graduate with a degree in Biology and a minor in Psychology in the spring. (Hopefully I can get that minor finished before I walk.) I just need to get my shit together and get into med school now and get back on the roads and pound some major pavement. I think that's what's missing in my life. Running.
I'm just too damn lazy to get off my ass most of the time to run. Sure I'm busy, but I could make some time for running too. It's not that time consuming. I feel if it would warm up, I'd be balls to the walls running all the time. Also, I need to ride. I just need to be more active than I have been lately. Maybe I'll run in the morning (not likely) or tomorrow after class (more likely but still not likely).
Oh yea, Obama just won last night. We'll all survive. Not a huge deal. Hopefully there's still room for me in the pool of physicians when I graduate. Or maybe not. Either way.
I passed on a very huge opportunity today that I'm regretting. Have been all day. I've promised (it's on Twitter so it's official) to never ever pass up anything that great again. If I live up to that, I should be pretty well off for the rest of my life. Damnit I'm a shit for not taking advantage of that...
Well, I'm pretty dry on ideas to write about tonight. Just wanted something to do.
Till next time, get lots of rest and drink plenty of fluids.

Morose
Just realized how depressing all my posts are. Guess I write when I'm sad. I'm gonna try not to make them all like that.
Here's to happier days.

Stepping Back
I'm not sure where to start this post or if it'll even get published but here goes...
So much has happened lately (in the past day, week, and even month) that I feel like my life could have turned on its head if I hadn't been careful. I'm still doing fine and on the track I want to be, but sometimes it feels like everything on the fringes of my life is falling apart. I know I have no reason to worry because my support system (my family mostly) is the greatest ever and support me in everything and anything that happens. I just wonder what would happen if something would happen to my "inner circle" and things along my life path would start falling apart.
I think a better way to put it might be that life is a race and everyone around me is my support and people I'm associated with. It seems like these people have either been dropping out of the race or stopping to take care of other business that's more important. My field has thinned lately.
Now that that's all in order, my life is not. The only thing I know that's going to be happening any time soon is that I have to go to class tomorrow and work tomorrow night. Other than that, the world is an open field and I can run any way I possibly want to (to an extent). Sure I want to run toward med school, but what if i decide to take a left turn, drop out of school (or at least finish my degree since I'm so close), and just work the rest of my life. Would I get the same support that I've got now?
I feel like, at this point in my life, that I should at least have some of my stuff figured out. People in my class are married and/or pregnant and settling down. I feel like Ted Mosby saying this, but that's what I want. I want to be settled and not running around like a chicken with its head cut off. I don't want to be in school for 7 more years after this. I'd be completely content marrying and being a stay-at-home dad. Dream life right there.
Life is fleeting. It's never what you expect and is something else before you know it. My advice: throw your cares, plans, and caution to the wind and see where you're supposed to go. Who knows where you'll end up, just try to be happy where ever that is.
Till next time, get lots of rest and drink plenty of fluids.
