la.

i really want to move to la or sf or ny so bad. it almost hurts.

cingulate gyrus

cingulate gyrus- n. located in the sheep brain dorsal to the corpus callosum, involved in the motivational aspects of behavior.

please, cingulate gyrus work! i need some serious motivation. but seriously, i do <3 my neurobiology lab. i've been slacking more than i've ever done in my life and it makes me feel grosse, crazy, and slightly out of control. it's so bad that i parked my car in an AR reserved spot to avoid the uphill walk from mesa parking structure to steinhaus hall and i got a well-deserved $60 ticket! i'm just completely annoyed with myself and my laziness and now i'm starting to pay for it. maybe i'm just burned out? maybe its the fact that i can't go home home this whole quarter? maybe my cingulate gyrus decided to stop working? maybe i don't want to face the reality of finishing college? i don't know what it is lately, but i'm just not in the mood to get my shit done. i need motivation.

i may have lost all motivation to wake up for class but i have not lost the desire to hang out with these girls. i love them!

the beginning of the end.

this last week started the beginning of the end--my last quarter at UCI. it's a strange feeling wanting to take in every last moment on campus and cherish it with those around you. but it doesn't really help that the very minute i sat down in class, i was over it. i don't care much for learning about supply and demand or glycolysis, again. i just want to play all day. :) yesterday, i had the most perfect afternoon. a drive down pch at sunset, dark chocolate winter mint shakes at the shake shack, and a glass of wine &sushi at mosun...it was perfect. i have no real reason for blogging at the moment, minus the fact that i'm just waiting around our apartment to start getting ready for the women's basketball game later. i think i just feel the need to write and just be without editing. so just bare with me, i'm a bit of a hott mess this morning. the baked mussels i ate last night did not agree with my stomach :/

today is one of my best friend's birthday. miss kimmy chierichetti turns 22 today and i wish her the best birthday ever!! i really love all my friends. i really do. they are such beautiful, amazing people and lately with the prospect of possibly moving to san francisco or anywhere for that fact i've been realizing how much these people mean to me and how much they will be missed. so if you're reading this, you are probably my friend. and just know that i value our friendship and thank you for being in my life. :)
