Scrambled Eggs vs. Practice Exam #2

It would be so easy to let everything else in my life fall away and focus solely, exclusively on school. I'm sure that's what I'd do if I were single.

Today I had a lot of biology exam prep to do. The other postbaccs were meeting at the library at 11am to study. I woke up at 8:30 and figured I should shower and do my practice exam before going to the study group. But Drew has been feeling really sick and the apartment was a mess, so I did some dishes and made us some breakfast instead. Then I ran to the store and chatted with him until I left for the library (at 10:30).

I still got everything done. Not doing the practice test before the study group didn't end up hurting me, because only a couple people had done it. I think that not allowing my life to be completely overwhelmed by schoolwork helps me maintain my footing. Anyway, this whole posting is just to remind myself not to ignore everything in the pursuit of an A in biology, because I can't live for the next six to nine years on schoolwork alone.
