Genetics

Okay, so I'm taking Genetics right now, and these books we have are just so very extremely intruiguing. I love them! Now, rather than being depressed for no reason.. I can read up why "genetically" I am depressed! I really do enjoy it. Sometimes I wonder whether or not I really want to major in Pre-medicine. Maybe I want to major in Genetics and become a Genetics researcher and have the time of my life? If anything I'm definetely going to take Genetics courses in college as much as possible. I really do enjoy this. Always have, I guess.

So yes, I have a cold and guess what? I have found the genetic reason for why I have gotten a cold. Interesting ay? Don't want to here about it ay? Well, it makes me feel better to write in my blog about things I know you people don't care about. Because guess what? I do care about these things, and I'm thinking they're pretty important to some extent. So yes, genetic reason to why I have a cold? Well, apparently my cold is because I'm stressed. New news to you? I suppose not, but I'm not done. Stress causes you to switch on genes in your body that turn on other genes that end up producing enzymes(one of which being cortisol) that go into your blood and prevent leukocytes (white blood cells) from being made. So stress has a biologicaly related cause to your diseases, not just a psychological one. Of course I'm assuming everyone new this information in some shape or form.

So, Laura.. where is all of the stress you keep throwing around in your conversations/blogs. Well, honestly I can't even explain that to myself. I have to have one of the easiest semesters of my whole high school career this semester. No joke. Pre-calc, Gym, Genetics, American History, Choir (Advanced Select =p), and Band. So there is no stress there, except the occasional test in History, or Genetics. Apart from that... I suppose my stress is just all related to the vast amount of fear I have built in myself over my next semester. My next semester is going to kick me in the butt. Yes, I realize it isn't as hard as yours..... (Yes, I'm mocking you BITCH) But yes, I have FrenchIII (sounds easy, doesn't it?), Lit&Drama(yes, that's easy to you say?), Study Hall (what is all of this fear Laura is talking about, she must be a moron..), Oh, and English 11 C- Now I don't know if I've posted about my hatrid of English yet, but just in case.. I HATE ENGLISH! Then I have Government. I end my bloody day with Government. What have I done to myself? But yes, this may be the root of my stress... but that doesn't even make sense to me.

Other stress factors? I just can't sleep for some reason or another. 1. I don't even bother to attempt to sleep until well after 12. Because even when I try to go to sleep before 12.. I roll around until well after 12. It's a proven fact. I've tried it, researched it, tested myself for it. Me getting to sleep before 12 is just impossible. Counting sheep? Been there, tried that. Read to make my eyes tired? Done it. Now apparently watching Tv DOES NOT help you fall asleep.. so I've stopped doing that. Apparently when you watch tv the bright light coming from it tricks your brain into thinking it is earlier than what it really is. Therefor, resulting in you not being as tired. Makes sense, doesn't it? what else is there to do to fall asleep? Oh, allergy medicine. I have done that.. and it does work.. but I only do it as a last resort. I especially believe that allergy medicine dependence has to be much worse than not getting enough sleep at night. But please PLEASE tell me if I'm wrong. Because if I am.. then dude.. I'm totally on the drug addiction like a fat kid on a McHappy meal. So I said "1" and never got to saying "2" I suppose my "2" would just have to be that even when I do try to get to sleep... I just can't. End of story..

So yes. I've decided that if I do major in Genetics.. I'm for sure going to find the cure for cancer, and pretty much everything else. Yeah, I'll be nobel price Laura! wOoT!

Anyways, My genetics lecture is over. and I think I'm out! Sorry if you actually wanted to hear happy stuff about my life. Guess you'll just have to be dissapointed, right? G'night all!
