Go Bears!

One week down. This week we took a course on medical decision making, which basically taught us that we're all innumerate. Although it wasn't the most exciting course, it was kinda neat because I never really thought about most of the stuff they taught us (using past tense because this was just a one week course). Basically we value literacy, but for some reason not numeracy, which leads to a whole lot of superstitions and gullibility. So yeah, if this hasn't bored you to death, then you should probably read Innumeracy by John Allen Paulos. It's a quick read and easy to understand (and it'll explain things way better than I can) so do it.

I honestly can't really remember much of this week besides class. It was a bit crazy. I did notice that I was running low on memory for my computer, which is weird because I just go it. Sooo, to cheer myself up I bought an external hard drive online that was on sale. It came with free shipping, so I thought I'd get it sometime next week, but it got to my place less than 24 hours later. Honestly, I don't think I've ever gotten service like that. It was a very pleasant surprise. The hard drive was also made for me. There was nothing to install, I didn't need to read a manual to figure out how to use it, and it took less than a minute to set it up. Needless to say, I am in love with the hard drive. Oh and it has 465 gigs of available free space. :::drool:::



Yeah, that's sexy. :)

For the big surprise of the week, I actually was sociable yesterday. I know. Shocking. One of the girl's that went to Berkeley had her birthday yesterday, so a couple of us took her to Grand Lux (the nicer version of Cheesecake Factory). I apparently found my fellow lushes. We all ordered drinks, a massive individual entree and individual desserts. Seriously, I was so full I nearly threw up. Afterward, we all headed to a social thingy for the entire class that had a keg and pizza. I came the closest to throwing up when I smelled the pizza. You could see that all of us were suffering too as we were standing and talking to people. So much blood had drained from our heads and moved to our stomachs that we couldn't stand straight (I was swaying). Eventually I left so I could lie down and finish digesting. Yeah, it was a lot of food.

Also, Cal beat the crap out of tennessee. This makes me incredibly happy. I want to have Tedford marry Justin Forsett and me. That would be freaking awesome.
