So, hopefully today is the day, after actually owning the decal for a year plus, that my Mini Cooper will finally get its Union Jack.

Last night I got 2 hours of sleep due to writing an 8 page term paper. I am about ready to pass out, but unfortunately I cannot enjoy it too much as I have a midterm at 7 that I also need to study for. Sleep deprivation — not just for kittens anymore.

Hopefully Pzizz will at least restore some of my sanity.

Today I had my first visit to the Student Health Center here at UCI. The parking, like everywhere in Irvine, was terrible. The nurse was really nice, and I got a med student and a real doctor to look at me, so hopefully they caught everything!

I went in cause I had what I thought was a pus blister in the back of my throat. (Ewww.) Katrina thought it was strep throat, so I went in to have them look at it. The med student took a look first and agreed that I needed a strep culture test. Then the doctor came in, took one look, and started going at the back of my throat with a cotton swab. I started gagging, but she gets done and says, “Okay, all gone. You just had some food debris stuck to the back of your throat.” Kind of embarrassing…

But they did prescribe me some migraine medicine for my headaches, so that’s cool. I also have to go in next Monday to get my mole removed. It will be way exciting.

In other news, World of Warcraft sucks. I pay $15 a month to wait an hour for 500 people to log off to play my level 30 Shaman! Arggh.

You know you’re living in Irvine when you get a letter from your housing office asking your roommate to take down her curtains. Why? Because they’re not white.

Here’s what I posted on the UCI LiveJournal community:

Dear Berkeley Court,

Thank you for asking my roommate to take down her red curtains. I know the community will be that much safer once we have eliminated all color and life in the community.

Signed,
Your Resident
