Day 6

Woke up at 9:12, hit snooze twice times, got out of bed at 9:35.

ANTH1020: AIDS in Global Perspective
Not much happened today in class that is noteworthy. We went over the epidemiology/paradigm of AIDS, funding and activism. I left my red glitten in List and I didnt notice until it was too late :( I guess I will have to buy new ones or maybe they will still be there when I go back but I am relatively upset because they were a gift.

ANTH1322: Human Rights, Social Justice, and Humanitarian Intervention: The Anthropology of Global Aid
I participated in the class today. The prof showed pictures of the lazarus effect regarding AIDS and ARV's, with before and after pictures. One things I have noticed about non-science lecture classes is that people LOVEEEEEE to hear themselves talk. When I made a comment on the picture all I said was "She is looking upwards, towards something, religious like". Now, that may seem like a very brisk/undetailed observation but it gets to the point. I mean I enjoy hearing myself too, why else would I be writing this blog (other than to keep me going to class). This class today overlapped with my other anthro class and it probably will alot in the future to because AIDS is such a predominant focus for humanitarian intervention.

BIOL0190H:Plants, Food, and People
ohhh Heywood ^_^ I am beginning to enjoy this class more and more as I go. Its one of those classes where I don't keep looking at the clock which is refreshing (not that there is a clock to look at in the room anyways). We went over the essential amino acids, vitamins and minerals today. We also talked about the different levels of hunger. When we were talking to individual hunger, one example for this was alcoholism. Hey wood said that drinking sometihng like beer and "having a belly full of beer is a nice feeling actually. Back in my youth...well...never mind". I chuckled. This class definitely makes me feel good about my biology/chemistry knowledge though because he simplifies alot of it. The only thing that sucks is that I have a paper due to the writing fellows next wednesday :(

It has been one week and I havent missed any classes!!! I have also kept a relatively sleeping schedule!! I would ideally like to get more sleep than the 7-8 hours I get now but that would mean I would have to be in bed by at least midnight which I think would be incredibly challenging.
