so fun, so tired
Ski trip was amazeballs.  It’s the most confident I’ve felt on the slopes, and I got some really good runs in.   The biggest revelation of this trip?  Guys are incapable of functioning without external cues (from the wimmens).  They would live in their own filth if there weren’t someone cleaning up after them.  And probably die of alcohol poisoning.  After they pee the bed.

Ski trip!!
So excited!  Reports on the debauchery when I return.

I am SO pumped for the ski trip this weekend!  Cross your fingers that I don’t break anything.

I am nervous that I may have accidentally entered the wrong credit card number when I ordered my j.crew stuff this weekend because it hasn’t gone through yet.  Irrational, yes?

I’ll just have to amp up the swimming to take off some of the strain on my feet.  I’m signed up for this dang half-marathon, and I’m going to run it, dammit.

I think I may have a touch of plantar fasciitis in my left foot.  Curses.

Nothing like endocrinology to suck the life right out of you.

Good news.
Med prom is Great Gatsby themed.  I’m pretty pumped.

Endocrine. Woof.
Endocrinology is by far the WORST.

Once again, I just a tumblr meme in a real-life conversation.  It went over gangbusters. I was explaining to my best friend about a time that I went off on her on-off boy about how he needs to grow up and how I was the only one who was rooting for him and that he’s 26 years old and needs to stop being such a jerk.  After my rant, he blinked a couple times and there was the slightest hint of...

Bad decision
I made my first Anthropologie purchases yesterday.  Probably not the most fiscally responsible choice, but I got two AMAZING dresses for half off and a pair of earrings that were normally $60 for 10 smackers.

so tired
I kicked my own butt today.  30 minute run, 15 minutes on the bike, 10 minutes on the rowing machine, abs.  Now I just have to work on lengthening that run a bit and picking up my pace.  I did some light intervals toward the end of the run, so I’ve got the capacity to NOT be the slowest person at the half-marathon.

93, fools!
Time to get my test-day awesomeness on.  Too bad it’s Monday.

Ok, breathe.
I’m going to go to bed, wake up at 5:30, and finish reviewing the clinical info.  I’m getting too worked up right now, and I’ve ceased to retain ANYTHING.

Now I'm starting to panic
I need to take a deep breath, trust that I know this stuff, and go to bed.

I'd be a lot more motivated
If I knew what the plans were for our post-test throwdown.

I just made a stupid mistake and accidentally bought this dress in Petite rather than the Medium that I need.  Stupid.

The thought of GI physio
Makes me want to barf.

Perhaps the run/swim wasn't such a good idea.
I’m crazy tired.

I need to make sure I know all the things.  I can do it.

I probably should've checked that the gym was open
Before I hauled my ass out in the 8 degree cold.

9:30 is a totally acceptable time to go to bed
Right?

blergh.
See that?  That was my motivation flying straight out the window.  Into the balls-cold night.
Jan 23rd
Motivation, don't fail me now.
I have 2 more solid days before this GI exam, and I’m quickly losing the will to study.  Which for any other test would be fine, because I’d be pretty ready to take it on.  Unfortunately, I spent the first 2 weeks of this block doing pretty much everything BUT studying.

The sexiest block of medical school
GI. Secretions, anal sphincters, retropropulsion.  You’re jealous, I can tell.

But Brittany needs to hit the hay.  Busy day of studying, studying, swimming, taco truck, and more studying.

I think I want to keep it short
It’s the day after my 24th birthday (which is the day of an exam, so meh), so I can’t guarantee I’ll be capable of being responsible for keeping a floor length dress in good condition.
