"Don't forget 3. Oct .11"

Except I missed that bus by four hours. I really need to catch up on Fullmetal Alchemist 2.

Can't sleep. What else is new.

Took the GREs again today, did considerably worse than last time. Like a hundred points worse in analytical, exact damn same in verbal. My brain did not want to work. I was having trouble focusing; I could not process what I was seeing even though I knew it was easy. I'm not used to this. Something is wrong.

Had the same problem trying to read today. Yes, recreational reading.

How can somebody have been top of his medical school class and not understand what eukaryotic means? Write!Fail.

It's October, my favorite month: my birthday, Halloween, and, now, National Coming Out Day, though why "coming out" needs a day is sad, but that's another issue for another day. Every day should be coming out day. Rainbow festival was today, but I didn't go after my GRE because I was too pissed off, and it was getting late in the afternoon.

I'm also insanely behind on LJ. So, uh, sorry about that.

The halfway mark for the semester is coming up, and I haven't started on any of my graduate school applications, and I still need to finish my broader impacts proposal. Ultimately I have nobody to blame but myself. And I need to start on the gigantic fucking lab report that's due next week.

they have it as a day so that those that are hesitant can have more support.

At NAU we had a big demonstration where we taped off an area near the Union and state there with a sign saying it was coming out day and what not. It was fun. And also some people that were in the closet came to the prism meetings and started getting help and support....SO it is a good thing to have IMHO ^.^

I think it's a good thing.

What is sad is that society is so hostile to those who are coming out that they need a day to feel protected.

ah, yeah I can understand that. I've heard of poeple using it for coming out about other things too, like sickness or psychological disorders like mpd. *shrug* rather they have the day and not need it, then not have it and need it. you know?
