Only one more Histology lab left! I am so excited about this! This morning's was no different from all the rest: BORING. Adam, Mikey and I went to grab a gyro sandwich after lab was over. The little sandwich shop, Nick's has gyros on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. I like them a lot, and I have never been one to eat lamb. I think I'm to the point where I'll eat just about anything as long as it tastes good. I love going over there simply because Nick and his wife are so funny. They fight behind the counter and everything. Well the place was packed as usual. Our Biochem professor, Dr. Chadwell comes to get a sandwich. There is only one chair left at the place at our table so he sits down and eats lunch with us. This man is the most socially awkward Brit you will ever meet so needless to say it was interesting. Although the gyro must have done him some good. He was hysterical at lunch and then in class (that NEVER happens)! He even told a joke during lecture.

We got a lovely e-mail from the Housing Dept today telling us that we needed to move out of the hotel by June 5th. Are you kidding me? What am I supposed to do for 4 days? Everyone is super irritated about this. The school told us that we could not leave until June 9th. We know now that this "evaluation period" is a bunch of nonsense. Plus I e-mailed them when I was making flight reservations, and they told me to make my flight for the 9th. I refuse to leave the hotel until the 9th or I am changing my flight and heading home. I really don't think they have enough room to put all of us up here on campus. The other terms will still be in session and so all the dorms will still be occupied. I'm sure enough people have complained by now that it will all be resolved. Let's hope. Ok, I need to run home. I don't have half of the books I need to study. Talk to you later!
