Cold, homeless, and failing

Now that I finally have news to tell, I can say that my power has been out since this afternoon due to an ice storm here in Bloomington. I put all of the stuff in my fridge in my freezer, and anything in the freezer outside behind my back door, and am now staying at a classmate's place.. with her boyfriend. They're actually really cool, and they gave me dinner and a place to stay for the night. I probably ruined their Valentine's Day plans, but I'd rather do that than sleep in my apartment, which is probably 40-50 degrees right now. The wireless connection here is pretty bad, so I can't really study for the test I have tomorrow, and since they won't cancel classes, my grade won't be so great on this exam tomorrow.

Other than this though, I can't complain too much. This semester I've been able to find more free time while still doing pretty well in classes. There still is an exam or two every week, but I can find 2-3 nights a week at times to do something. I could tell you about how we look at human brains kept in buckets, or how we're about to cut off the heads of our donors in anatomy lab, but you probably didn't want to hear that anyway. I'm feeling a little closer to a doctor I guess, and classes can be interesting. If you're looking for crazy stories of nights out I don't really have anything for you guys now.. going out is usually anything from poker night (I won 5 bucks last weekend) to bowling, or usually just hanging out and talking at bars. For those who went to Puerto PeƱasco, I bought some Sol beer for poker night just to remind me of the two spring breaks there. As for the "beautiful med school babies" as Jonathan wants to know, there hasn't been anything serious yet, but I'll let you know if anything happens there. As I said earlier, I'm also going on another fun ship Carnival cruise to the Bahamas, Grand Cayman, and Costa Maya, Mexico if anyone has free time on the week of March 11th and wants to get in on the previous guest rate.

I apologize for the same boring post, and somebody (Rowlands) keep the blog alive and don't wait another 2 weeks to write something. Until next time..

Ted
