Fish Larvae are Special, apparently.

Last night, as Elizabeth watched, Jessica and I officially went crazy. We were able to register poor Elizabeth's fear for our sanity. We were so stressed and jittery, that we were laughing hysterically over everything whilst making popcorn on the stove. Somehow, we ended up pretending we were squirrels and ate our popcorn like acorns. I cannot help but wonder if we'll end up at a mental institution by the end of the semester.

I feel like it's final exams week...ALL the time. I get the same high from adrenaline rush though, and everyone is stressed together, so it's all okay. I sometimes feel like I'm wayyy behind on my work, but then after talking with several other people, I find out pretty quickly that we are all on the same page, more or less.

I have finally decided on my semester long project for Oceanography! I'll be working with Jessica on fish larval studies! Whoo whoo! We were so tired though. This is the title we came up with for our project at 3am this morning: "Early Spring Fish Larvae Special Variation in the Mystic River and Estuary." We couldn't stop laughing over what a horrible title our cloudy minds fashioned after writing our proposal...special...(as in variation among species), except it looked so silly. Special? As in, super fantastic fish larvae?? Cuz, you know, that's the only kind we plan to look at. Common fish larvae just won't do.

We fixed it though, never fear! After straining to think of a good title in such a tired state, we finally came up with: "Variation of Fish Larvae Species in the Mystic River and Estuary During the Early Spring." Yeah, 15 words long, and it's not even a full sentence. Kind of ridiculous, but that's how it goes.

Well, I just finished my Oceanography class, and I feel bad that I wasn't able to fully concentrate. Diane is so sweet and is so excited to share her knowledge with us, but well, the proposal kind of took up all my energy last night. I am going to nap now.

Good night! Er...morning!
