Frightened
Totally spaced going to my Biostats class. Thought it started next week, shit.
Finished my budget proposal for researching "sea lice" on Johnson's Beach. Interesting stuff. Downside of knowledge is that the world becomes a scarier place every day. Sea lice have been around for a long time. In the 1900's they called it a sea rash. Even today, many people will vacation here, go home to their corn fields and think that they have some sort of rash or disease from the sand or the water or who knows what. Measles? Kind of looks like it. But the reality is even more disturbing. Sea lice are baby jellyfish, sea anemone's or Portuguese man of war. They are so small you can't see them. They like to get in between your bathing suit and your skin and they sting, just like their mommies and daddies. Kind of makes you not want to get in the water, right?
I picked up a really interesting book. It's called Brain on Fire. The brain is a scary thing when it comes to messing us up. It was almost $15 though so I will wait or get it on kindle.
Fascinating stuff you come across when you are exploring self-awareness and what we, as humans, are capable of.
Start Chem II tomorrow as well. Second time is a charm, right? For those of us that get second chances.
