I am dumb

I am dumb Well, its pouring rain outside, and I managed to get myself up at 8:30 as usual for my 9:30 Tuesday/Thursday class, 9.15 (biochemistry and pharmacology of synaptic transmission). But I got outside and the wind was blowing so hard that my new umbrella broke in 30 seconds, and then I was running horribly late because I decided it was too windy to ride my bike, and I got soaked from the knees down in the torrential rain. And then I got to the classroom and discovered that class had been cancelled for the day and I had forgotten to check the schedule. Way to go, Mollie. So instead I came to Athena and worked on my application to UC Berkeleys Molecular and Cellular Biology PhD program. So I guess it wasnt a total waste, even if I am still soaking wet. But applications still make me nervous, and so Im sitting here in the cluster trying to figure out the difference between upper division GPA and junior/senior GPA and if I need to even write either one of these because I have no idea if my department requires this information. A Few Answers to Questions: 1. There were a few comments about messy kitchens. Ahem, my personal opinion (as someone who perhaps is one of the kitchen slobs) is that if you want something clean, youre gonna have to clean it yourself. I occasionally go on frantic cleaning sprees in my suite kitchen (usually when Im stressed out about something) and do everybodys dishes and scour the kitchen from top to bottom. Now, if everybody did that every once in a while, wouldnt the world (and the kitchen) be a better place? Unfortunately, other people dont agree with me (and its easier to clean a suite kitchen shared by 6 people than a floor kitchen shared by many more than that, I do realize). 2. Diana asked how my mom liked 5.60. Actually, she read Redbook and Womens Health Weekly (or something like that, you know the genre) the entire time. I was kind of disappointed, because here I was sitting there all studious with my mom, and shes the one flipping through magazines to look at the pictures 3. Dont get scurvy! Its not a good idea. Ack, late for 21A.100
