O.M.G. It's August ( !! ... : | ... D: D: ! My thoughts emoticons exactly). I've been on such a nautical streak lately, digging for the navy, white, and red striped pieces in my closet. If only I had a straw or white boater hat. Something about the slightly vintage pinup look makes me go ga-ga. This is what I wore to a pho linner (lunch-dinner, like brunch is breakfast-lunch) on Saturday (7/30) at Mai Lee, aimless yet fun tech browsing at Best Buy, and a dab of shopping at Tarjay (there's this nude pair of low wedges in 5.5 that keeps nagging at me to take them home ... must ... resist going back). Lots of birthdays this past weekend. Fast forward through go-karting, too much pizza and wings, 10-minute peanut butter sauce noodles, and not enough studying and here we are at the start of a new week.

Yesterday was a relatively productive Monday. I chugged through half the data analysis and outline for my summer research presentation on Thursday, ready for the end of the beginning. Went to the med school library after work and chugged through more pages of MCAT review/problems than my brain can process without sufficient caffeine intake. Today, on the other hand, called for a lengthy lunch at Pappy's Smokehouse "Best BBQ in St. Louis" and home of the Adam Bomb - in honor of the crazy guy from Man vs. Food. That is how much I ate in one sitting - (beef brisket and pulled pork sandwich, full rack of ribs, fresh cole slaw, Frito Pie with hot sausage, big slab of chicken) x0.25. My stomach wanted only to "rest and digest" and so that's what I've done all day ...  

This fall is going to be nuts too. I'm going to need a bigger coffeemaker.

  9. Ahh I got mine done with a labret stud at a tattoo place and after the swelling went down the bar was too long so I switched to other earrings. I guess that irritated it too much. Sucks that these take a while to fully heal. Thanks for getting back to me so soon. :]
