i love peach jolly ranchers 

of course, as i'm knee deep in GRE studying, all i want to eat is candy and sweets. i really don't have an appetite for anything else. anyway, i bought some candy last night and for the longest time i thought peach jolly ranchers have been out of commission. i bought a "passion fruit" variety bag of jolly ranchers and guess what? it's got peach flavor in it. i'm so excited, it's a little sad. anyway, when i was younger, i'm talking living on the base age, i LOVED peach jolly ranchers. i had one today for the first time in a long time and strange memories came flooding back. strange how one piece of candy can do that to you.

if you haven't seen julena in a while, might i suggest going to see her? she's doing awesome things now and she even knows "hug." that little peanut comes right up to you with her arms stretched out ready to hug you. it's impressive. she knows what she wants and what she doesn't want and has the ability to tell you. development in children is so amazing. i can't wait until i get to start studying it for real -by this, i mean, in grad school, not by having a child of my own.

i just finished taking my GRE practice 2 exam. I DID SO MUCH BETTER THAN ON THE FIRST PRACTICE EXAM. granted, on the first one, i hadn't done diddly squat to prepare for it and did much worse on that first practice than i did when i took the actual test last year, but on this 2nd practice exam i did better on the math section than when i took the actual test. does that make sense? i might need to draw a venn diagram. anyway, it looks like this class is helping, so i can't ask for much more than that. oh, and did i mention that i am almost positively going to take the test on my 27th birthday? talk about brutal. but hey, you suck it up and move on. i need to do a ton more work on learning more vocab. ugh, i'm really slacking on that. for shame.

oh, i had a migraine on monday (my day off from working on saturday, of all days to get a migraine) and i ended up throwing up all night. i popped a blood vessel in my left eye and it is so sexy. my optometrist said when that happens it looks like your eye is hemorrhaging. yummy.
