This lack of summer in summer is pretty terrible. We've only had a handful of sunny days which is kind of depressing; all the more reason for me to continue my vitamin D supplements. Despite it being dreary, it has been very drama-free so far. That I cannot complain about. Things are pretty stable at the moment and that feels nice.
Summer quarter has started and I am on my last round of prerequisites for SIOM. I've gotten all A's so far in Anatomy and Physiology, Biology, and Nutrition. Hooray! A&P was by far my favorite class, but it was a struggle to keep afloat while working full time. Right now I've got my second quarter of A&P and chemistry. It's weird to have to retake chemistry and biology when I took high level classes in high school. The classes in high school were definitely way more intense. I could have gotten college credits for them, but I had a streak of nervous breakdowns towards the end of high school and was incapable of following through with testing. I've been reflecting a lot on how much better my mental health is now which of course means my relationships with people (esp. family) are much much healthier.
I also bought one of these:
It's too expensive to drive my car everywhere. I work downtown for the moment and parking is a killer. The bus also gets expensive and stops running before my night class finishes. Unfortunately the bike keeps stalling whenever it's stopped at a light so it's not ready as a commuter vehicle quite yet :( My roommate, Maxx, and I are working to get it fixed up.
Here is a picture of my face approximately 11 months on T. I don't think I look too different, but the reviews are mixed! The most dramatic difference is how much happier I am with myself :)
