Hmph... where to start off? Maybe I'll break it down into sub categories to help my unorganized mind a bit. :P
School:
I have a practical exam on Monday with my lab partner for Capillary Punctures, which I think I hate having done to me than an actual venipuncture. Why? Because the lancet is 2.0mm long(very small), it punctures in your fleshy distal portion of either your middle or ring finger, and if the person performing the procedure ends up shifting the lancet WHILE THE NEEDLE IS STILL IN YOU, you get this great big bruise and scar. Give me the butterfly or the regular 21 Gauge needle anyday than the capillary on an inexperienced tech. Looks like a really small snake bit my finger... got the dinky scars to prove it. >.<'
However, I have faith in my lab partner to do it correctly. She is a good friend of mine from school so I won't let her screw up my finger more than it already has. :P
I have also signed up to do the February 2012 Canadian Society for Medical Laboratory Science. The exam was $250, yes it's expensive, but when I start working it will only be like a day's amount of work for me to pay for an exam that allows me to work anywhere in Canada, and have a higher chance of being employed by a company I want to work for. Not really understanding why so many people in my class are bitching so hardcore about it lol. Next up is the Alberta College of Medical Laboratory Technologists to become a member for. The fact that they are willing to pay for my continuing education for when I become a Med Lab Technologist appeals to me greatly, as I am hoping I get accepted to U of A or NAIT/SAIT to do. What a busy next three years is going to be. >.<

So I don't really have one. :P
Well, my past two weekends have consisted of me spending time with Devon, which is always a good thing, but I'm such a selfish girl that I always wanna spend time with him. Lol, the October 21 weekend was really nice. He came to see me and we ended up doing activities we normally hate doing with other people. Like, shopping! It was really nice to see someone encouraging me to get things that I like (Nike High tops, for example) instead of things people would rather have me wear. Oh and, I almost smacked him around. Why? He wanted to carry my bags, which has never happened to me before. >.> He hated doing that for other people, and I hate it when people do that for me. So it was a weird thing to get over lol. He also took me to Golftown and we putted there (by accident) for a good half hour and the guy who was working told Devon to take me on a real date lmao. We went in looking for new gloves and potential stuff for when I start golf... aww poor Devon. I got sidetracked by the mini putt part! >.< Then before he had to go, I took him out to have sushi in Bourbon Street, sharing two 750mL bottles of Japanese beers. Awesome weekend!
Then a week after I spent the weekend in Calgary for a Halloween party hosted by one of the Power Rangers.
cruger went with me as he was my ride down, and I had a lot of fun. Even Devon took me out for lunch on Saturday when he was working, and he got reamed by some old guy for blocking the alleyway. Devon was kissing me when I got out of the house to pick me up and this old geezer in his pickup was shouting at Devon to move, then Devon was all "Okay okay, calm your tits" about it, moved the car, and the guy saw me and understood. Then he made an obscene hand gesture that I'm getting laid. Thanks perverted old man. :P
Then I saw Devon again for dinner with a bunch of mutual friends like
t-milk, cruger, 
tora_the_maestro, 
froggy_hop 
mrmalone and 
sly-ishmail. Earl's really is not a good place to eat as I had an appetizer to myself and was not remotely satiated. So once Devon got there we went somewhere else to eat. Poor guy got told by the manager to tell me he loves me lmao. MrSir, I already know he loves me, no need to embarrass both of us lol.
Long weekend I'll be spending with two of my very good friends from school baking and getting drunk lol. I finally converted them into my obsession with bacon, and this pleases me. And trying my first Jagerbomb? Oh my god. >.<;; Scary thought!
My Ragequit Rants:
Another thing I wanted to say is that I've been doing so well in my courses that I've received some animosity among my peers. I've still maintained a 90%+ average in my courses (so, 4.0 GPA), but I never divulge my marks to people unless people ask me. Big mistake. I remember for an exam I got a 90% in, I was slightly disappointed in myself because I wasn't able to bring my notes home to study (mixed up the exam days) and a classmate asked me what I got. I told her, and said I was a little peeved I could've done better if I had actually brought the notes home. She outright cussed me, however jokingly, "I fucking hate people like you. I wish I had that mark. Be grateful." Apparently people can't understand that there is always a 50/50 chance of someone getting a higher/lower mark than you unless you somehow got a 100% on an exam. What's the point of asking if you're not prepared to conduct yourself appropriately? Yeah I get that it's jealousy, but lawdy, it's a lose lose situation for me. If I get a lower score, I'm upset at myself and other people are happy they "beat" me. If I get a higher mark, they label me as a super genius, too smart for my own good, or something that implies I didn't work my butt off for that mark. All my previous anecdotes when people have snapped at me for simply sharing my opinion on how an exam "went", understanding a concept, or simply knowing the answer, have lead me to never share again. Although, I fear "I passed" may come off as douchey.
And another. I'm really sick of people hanging on to past mistakes/derps I've done. Yes, I understand I've been stupidly drunk at two or three major furry events, but I have not done anything remotely close to that since LAST YEAR. Quit bringing up these humiliating anecdotes about me. Yes, I understand they are funny, but they are getting really tiresome to me and my boyfriend. I never drank until I moved out of the house, so I apologize that the concept of "all the alcohol I want" was so new that I went overboard with it. It's not fair for me that I have grown up and haven't done it since, but people still bring it up as if I still do that. Even to the point that I was told by someone younger than me not to have a goddamn beer with my meal. It is no fucking wonder I hardly hang out with anyone in the furry community anymore if they bring up the past so often, among other things! It's stupid shit like this that makes me not want to remain friends with these assholes. Once or twice reminding me of my asshattery back then is enough, would it be fair if I brought up EVERYTHING you done wrong in the past over and over? I thought not, so STFU!
I've come to the conclusion that the majority of people suck. Why I have not fully understood this was because I am way too damn logical to understand why people behave the way they do. It really does baffle me. The fundamentals of being a decent person are not being implemented as often as I think they should be. Questioning my integrity as a person is an insult to me (as I know myself better than any other asshole that claims otherwise) and Devon. He is a very logical person, and as am I, and he wouldn't be dating someone you dicks claim I am. For the last time, I do not make things up about people. I do not spread rumors about people. The only times where I am slightly accused for the latter is when OTHER people (even the people themselves!) tell me these things first! For fuck sakes, you really think I do this for my own amusement? Do you really think I have the time to come up with these absurd stories about people? Go fuck yourself. People tell me these kinds of things because I am a good listener. How else would I know these intimate details about these people UNLESS YOU TELL ME!? It's sad, pathetic, and hilarious knowing how hypocritical people are about another. You hate somebody enough to tell me about it, regardless if they are friends or your goddamn significant other, that you turn around and stab me in the back for trying to help you? If I had really wanted to start shit up, I would just tell the person you're complaining about all the things you tell me about them.
But alas, I'm not that petty to do that. Push comes to shove though... well then it's your own damn fault. :D
