I turned 21 many hours ago.  It's not much different from 20 except I can whip out a license and say, "Hey, I'm legal!"  I think I was more excited about turning 18 so I could vote.  I'm not so excited about that anymore now that I have jury duty next month.  Poop ( Read more... )

The average of my biochemistry test was 43%.  I got a 64.  The low was a 6; the high was an 88.  I wonder how that's going to be scaled.

Okay, I know I speak Cantonese, and there's a large Cantonese population in the Allston area where I work.  There was a pharmacist I worked with once who spoke Chinese and refused to utilize that to help customers.  I resented that, and I make an effort to translate to the best of my abilities.  The only problem is that words like "refill" or " ( Read more... )

Nothing I do seems to make people happy anymore, and it's really kind of disheartening.  I was raised to be a people pleaser, to put everyone else's happiness before mine.  But lately it feels like I haven't been doing anything right ( Read more... )

I miss Jason like crazy.  Everything reminds me of him.  I see IT people running around the school, and I think of him.  I see a beautiful landscape or nice architecture, and I think he'd like to take a picture of it.  I develop pictures of him in my darkroom, and I think of him.  I show customers his picture of the peacock, and I think of him ( Read more... )

I get to make lollipops and sore throat drops tomorrow!  Yay!  This is what being a pharmacist is about.  Then next week I get to make syrups - chocolate-flavored and cherry-flavored.  Yay sugar and medicine!

I've only been gone for four days, and it feels like a lifetime.  I'm not even homesick.  I'm used to being independent of my parents.  I'm Jasonsick.  Darn that cute boy.  He's talented.  He can make animals pose for him, and he can make time seem relatively slower.  It's just 34 days and 18 hours before I'm back in Charleston, but really, who's ( Read more... )

One week left in Charleston.  The closer I get to leaving, the more unprepared I feel.  Almost everything is in order right now, except for that packing thing.  I have a place to live, a job, a bed, and a plane ticket home for a visit.  I just don't feel like I have anything planned out though.
