I am in the library, ready to be at home in my bed.

I am studying about endocrinology and the reproductive system, wishing I wasn't.

even though I get to look at pictures like these and understand why they happen:

(NOTE: not for weak stomached readers)

(don't worry, I will spare you the reproductive disorder pictures)

I have even asked somebody to change my facebook password, hoping it will help me to focus.

Though, I have still found other ways to distract myself from studying, including:

looking at all the rows of pretty colored books

eavesdropping on other people's conversations

thinking of things to do over the summer

emily and brandon's blog

people watching

google reader

iphoto albums

So, if you find something really interesting and want to send it to me, for me to look at, please don't.

I should be studying right now.

for:

Bio-Organic Chemistry

Physiology

and

Human Development

(and I guess Doctrine and Covenants)

ok.

one more hour, then I will go home.

and sleep.
