CXIX : HOT

Now it feels like the summer season, after it poured and lightning-ed one random night this week. I always feel like I'm sitting inside an oven when I'm walking outside, and my apartment's thermostat is attempting to show that the temperature does in fact exceed 90F at the moment.

Although the weather icon on my desktop says differently (it's 87F?) Who knows which one is the real temperature. Temperature is an average anyway.

So far, in my OTC class, I've learned (and supposedly already memorized) medications for pain, nausea and vomiting, dental, and heartburn and stomach discomfort (dyspepsia). Ask me about what you should take so I can apply my knowledge! Or else, I'm just memorizing all this material and I'll never become confident enough to actually use it in real life.

CXVIII : Preparation

Started cleaning up my room to prepare myself for another year of pharmacy school. I finally emptied my paper shredder bin and unclogged it from the year's worth of paper shredding fun I did (my roomie contributed too).

I really need to find a place to recycle paper because we have a whole stash of ads from the mail and now my bagful of shredded paper. Can't I just bury them into the dirt and let it decompose? Surely a flower or two will have nutrients to grow here in LA.

CXVII : Bags

While I was eating lunch yesterday at work, I noticed on my lunch bag, the Ranch 99 in Fremont still said "coming soon." I'm pretty sure I got this bag within a month ago, and when I went home last week, I'm pretty sure the store was already open. When did this one open?

Stores should put more interesting things to read on bags because people like reading words on random places-- on shirts, walls, tables, ceilings, crooked signs, cardboard boxes, bathroom stalls, dumbwaiters, grocery bags...
