Woo hoo!

• Suck it, Sallie!  Finally paid of Sallie Mae student loans!  Not that there aren’t other loans in existence.  But those administered by the nation’s largest student loan company?  NOT ME ANYMOREZ!
• Going to get my hair done over spring break.  Yesssss!
• I’ll guiltlessly be able to purchase boat shoes.  Yaaaaaaaaaaaay.

As found ways to avoid preparing for finals, Melinda and I watched The Wedding Date.  It was silly.  After the movie, I thought about how different it was that the man was the prostitute and portrayed well.  But what about when women are portrayed as prostitues in movies, they are also wanton/scarlet/unrefined.  Buuh.

Watched Law Abiding Citizen with Melinda a few weeks ago.  It was intense, sort of like Bone Collectors meets Law and Order: SVU meets Se7en.

Finally got around to watch The Hangover, and grew tremendously bored–quickly.  Hrmph.

Male Inequality

I CAN’T BELIEVE THIS IS REAL.  BAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

A Few Gay Men & Women

Jon and John are amazing.

Vaccine Scare Shows How Emotions Can Trump Facts

A very good reminder to all!  And a very nice, simple explanation of why we were so quick to believe the study: it gave hope.  Glad I was able to study this topic just after taking my Child Health course.  Dr. Adams must be happy.

A Look At U.S. Policy On Family Planning Abroad

Just shy of abortion.  Not that I expect that to become readily available anytime soon.  But I can hope that we implement a program that will save lives.  I can hope.

Monopoly goes circular for 75th Anniversary, does away with cash

Whee how cool looking.  Now drinks when you make a circle!

Time for the epigenome

This is so cool!  I’m happy to hear that epigenomics is receiving adequate attention.  LHC just gets way more attention because it’s sort of sexier “ZOMG WE CAN FIND THE PIECE THAT PROVES/DISPROVES GOD/EINSTEIN”.  Wheee.. but epigenomics is just as cool (even though I don’t understand so much of it hehe).
