It's great because instead of the absent minded, "Hey, how's it going?" -- where you don't really expect an honest answer before you move on with your life, the greeting I'm guilty of -- this greeting makes you think, and you get to hear what the other person is dealing with, the good and the bad.
So, here are the week's highs and lows.
Highs:
- I was volunteering at a local school science fair and got to hold a tarantula AND a spotted gecko! They reminded me of home and made me happy.
- I made some serious progress inderstanding some concepts that kept tripping me up in neuroanatomy. The irony of how difucult it is to cram facts about the human brain into my brain is not lost on me.
- I bought a new nutribullet and have been drinking smoothies for days. I've even become one of those weirdos who adds kale. It looks disgustng, but tastes delcious!
- The Lone Bellow came out with a new album and it's awesome! I'm seeing them live in February and can't wait.
Lows:
- It's still winter - brutally cold and icy. I am not a fan.
- I had to pay for health insurance like a real adult. Does the government not get that the whole point of staying in school was to prolong the realities of being an adult?
- We're less than two weeks out from our first big exam of the semester. Hello, sleepless nights.
I'm thankful to be ending the week with my "highs" outnumbering my "lows." Hope you can say the same!
