Welcome to Gaia! ::

Looks like they're going to sleep soon. I can't blame them. It's tedious work.


It says they may have trouble extracting the parts of the brain where the surgery happened (did he have a lobotomy?) because of the dead tissue. But it looks like that is near the end of the brain.

Geez 30 hours...

crying Whhhhhy?!

And that is funny how regional locations can differ by just 3 miles.

My town is different. My paper reports robberies and shootings from around my area all the time (well, a couple miles up but ya know). Maybe it's because there is a community college there? We live just around the corner from a high school too. I hate it when our walls get graffitied. -_____- LOL u r teh rebel!

Sometimes there are cops here. One time I had to call the cops to report a domestic disturbance involving a boyfriend and girlfriend. It was WEEEEEEEIRD. Someong was cussing up a storm and yelling. Then they made up? It took hours. Then their friends came just to WATCH it unfold and then LEFT. lol friends. neutral I don't think the cops came. rofl They're just there to give us tickets for revenue. <3333


Still watching the braaaain. I can't stop! O______O

And they hit the hippocampus now which is where the surgery happened eons ago. hurrah

so, Kilana, ever submitted anything to peopleofwalmart.com? or seen anything on there that was from your store?

Aw... thank you for the cardinal slippers, AFF. heart

Ugh... finals season. Maybe I'll actually get the time to change my avatar after these next two weeks are over. D=

It's not showing for me still. crying

This is what I think he does: he takes the slivers of brain and he puts it in a container (you see it to the right side of him...you can also see it on the brain image as well...they're the dots on the bottom left hand corner). He puts all the parts of the brain in little containers with a solution inside of it. Then after all the rows have been filled they close it and put it aside and bring out another container. Then they repeat the process. Sometimes they have to put more dry ice in the container so they stop the slicing and put chunks of it around the brain. I've read an article that says the doctor gets agitated if he's away from the brain for more than 10 minutes. When they go out for a coffee break they put saran wrap over the brain and leave (lol, I laughed).

I've read in a CNN article (one of the commenters) said that there is a lot going on in the background of the scene that the cameras have not shot. Most I've seen are three people in the room at any given time. I have no idea what the guys are doing. There's only one of them taking the brain slivers.

D: Did you try the mirror?

Ah, I didn't really pay attention to the container before. :0 Definitely looks like a very, very, very tedious and stressful process. I wasn't doubting that they knew what they were doing, though, I just found it funny that they were using a paintbrush. And bubble wrap. xd

Just from the short blurb they have below the feed about the staining and costs and everything makes it feel like there's a lot going on.

Also I have a cognitive science midterm in an hour and there's a lot of brain anatomy to know, so my mind is in brain central right now. @__ @

I need to study for geology. I'm sooooo behind, and there is a test Monday, plus final Wednesday after next. But I'm exhausted and I just don't give a ********. It's all so boring.

Well... it would be interesting if I didn't HAVE to do it, but being forced to, and in such a short time period, makes it boring as hell.

I hate my music class, now, too. Why did our professor have to get sick? She was wonderful. Now we're stuck with this boring SOB who more or less just reads from the book. And he talks over the music when he plays tapes. It's so obnoxious! I wonder what our real professor would think of that. I remember her saying she thought it was awful when teachers did that. It's hard to listen for form and other stuff you want me to learn when you keep distracting me. Yes, I heard the chimes. It's in the listening guide where I'm following along. Quit screaming about it. D=

Edit: I'm not sure what the actual temperature around here is, but it feels freezing to me. And today is the first day it has been sunny it a long time. It's been raining a lot. Cold rain makes me ache. I've wanted one of the local coffee shop's delicious double chocolate muffins for a week, now, but I keep passing it because I don't want to get out of my car when I JUST got it warmed up. I don't understand the desire for it to "feel like winter." The only reason I put up with it at all is because I love autumn. The leaves were particularly beautiful, this year. But now they're all gone, and it's just dreary and depressing. crying

Edit 2: I came in to say I found a nifty little jewlery store on Amazon, and then completely forgot about it. xd Novica. I love unique pieces in natural stones. I have a lot of turquoise, but I've been looking into getting some lapis for a while. I really like amber, too, but it doesn't look very nice on me with my coloring.
