in your eyes

this (above) was at a place called Cafe' Ole' last monday- it was one of our first rush events- Chun and i were just arriving and we found a nice table of all P3s... so we hung out with them for a few minutes before we went looking for P1s to meet... we're all nearing the end of this pharmacy journey... kinda sad!

below- scholes came to memphis and stayed with me for 2 nights! he had a frisbee tourney... i showed him the sights and let him meet many of my friends- i think he really enjoyed it- so much so that he's comming back in 2 weeks for another tournament! woot


ok... is it lame that i really like that song from "say anything"? call me cheesy...

'glory road' was a bad movie- seriously- if you've got that on your netflix que- do yourself a favor and just take it off- what a letdown...

school is kicking in- i'm eagerly awaiting the completion of this cancer section- i mean these drugs just dont follow the normal rules- and they have really funny and hard names- i wont bore you-
we had 3 hours of chemo lecture today, and by the end of the 3rd i was just chemo'd out for sure..
swam yet another mile today- and let me tell you- for the 2 hours directly after that i just feel like laying down... its really draining on so many muscles- its just an all over tired feeling, but its in a good way- my leg really hurt a lot after swimming today- but its good now, just a little frustrating that i was right about it not being a weight-bearing issue like i keep trying to tell people... but swimming is still fun, and no doubt burning 700 calories a pop is good on the old stomach- you'd probably be suprised to see that i'm an OK swimmer- i'm actually just amazed at myself, i mean honestly- i'm really really embarrassed about my stomach and general physique, but something in the last 3 or 4 weeks, just made me not even care anymore- i mean who cares? chun said it best "Scott, if a girl is grossed out or doesnt talk to you because your stomach looks funny, she isnt the kind of girl you'd want to talk to anyway..." and i was like... "whoa... thats actually true... i dont really have any more excuses... " and thats when we started going.... but the last month in general i've been much smarter about food, i've been walking all over the place (mud island's 3 mile 'pole to pole' is a classic memphis walk), and now with the swimming added on top of that- its just been a good feeling and a relief to see my body start to shrink back into itself again, and to actually see some muscle again- plus i've been the pushup master this summer- so that helps too...

had a big house party this past weekend-saturday- we did a ton of cleaning up and preparation, and a good deal of cleanup after the fact- its still really not my 'scene' (referring to the large house traditional fraternity house party thing...) but i can still walk around and be a good host and talk to people- and being a p3 and the guy with the cool room on the 3rd floor- i'd say it gives me no small amount of leverage- i just dont really USE it per se'... but its there... i kinda let aryan down by not talking to a P1 that everyone agreed i should be talking to, but i mean, its just hard to perform under pressure, and with everyone watching and stuff- and the whole me feeling out of my element at the party i'd say was also a factor in that- but no problems- life is good- everything is running very smoothly around here... i'm excited to see how this semester is going to unfold- i've decided to look for a different, closer church (of Christ, that is)- i love germantown, but 35 minutes is just so hard for me to try to make on sunday and wednsday and i'd really like to find a place thats closer that i could get more involved with- and i always end up being like 5-10 minutes late to g-town because of traffic and whatnot it... it would be almost like living in MJ and trying to go to church in brentwood... Kayla is getting me to come with her and Bret to some place thats a lot closer and she said there were actually a few more people my age there- and there were a couple at germantown too, but they have graduated now and moved on, and everyone is just so... Married... there... which is cool- but i dont like being the 5th, 7th, or 9th wheel... and if that doenst work out- Lacey (a p3 from FHU) really wants me to go with her to her place... so we will just see how that plays out...
