Coccinellidaephobia (Cock-sin-ellie-day-pho-bee-ah)

A fear of Ladybugs

Why am I posting about this? Well Oscar has Coccinellidaephobia. Yes he is afraid of ladybugs. Come this time of the year we have what is actually called Asian Beetles but look basically like ladybugs. They can get everywhere but so far only one or two have gotten in the house but you'd think a million were charging in all at once based on Oscar's reaction to them. He reacts whether there are real ones or he's imagining them. He even gets hysterical sometimes. He'll think/image/sometimes see one and run to Christian or I stand on our feet and try to climb up us to safety. Sometimes he won't get out of his bed because there are "badybugs" all over the floor. Majority of the time I'm laughing but when he sees one every 5 seconds it starts to get on my nerves. Oh badybugs, badybugs go away. Come again another day.

Cake Anyone?

Well, finals are done for this quarter! One more quarter to go and I'm screaming, crying, laughing, well I don't know what to do. I think that was the most difficult quarter I've been through here in med school. I feel like I won an Oscar (haha). (I love how I can make jokes like that all the time!) Thank you Oscar and Felix for putting up with me and Congratulations to Christian for all his hard work!

1546 hours of med school classes down and 200 hours to go... oh and boards! Piece of cake!

too much and not enough

I love when I have a million things to do and here I find myself roaming facebook (which I never do), posting on my blog and eating chocolate ice cream. Hmmm... I think I'll just go to bed and hope some things on my list disappear.

Question: Does Santa rent out his elves? They can't be that busy during this time of the year, right?!

Oh and here's whom I blame for my list being so long...
