  Whew! My CSI marathon is over (for now) and now I feel a bit.... hmmm, "empty" I guess... My interest for forensics is burning bright these days and I'm taking in everything I can get. Nothing on the TV but I've seen all their forensics shows anyway, so it doesn't really matter. I know, a lot of people find me weird because of that interest, but honestly, it's not really my problem!
I had a childhood dream (ok, I had several but this is one of them) of becoming a forensic pathologist, but sadly, my inability to understand chemistry when I was in school made an end to that dream and now that I actually do understand it, it's too late to do anything about it. People always claim that "it's never too late" but trust me, it is! Another question I'm always met with is, "why dead people? " Well, first of all, dead people don't complain! If they do, something is very wrong and you better check a second time. Second, the living can tell what happened. The dead can't! Unless you help them. Which is why this is so damn interesting. These people have a story to tell and it's important that it will be told. The worst thing is the smell....
Ever had a raw piece of meat getting overdue? It's nothing in comparison! Trust me, I know! But they say you get used to it. Actually, the "rule" is that after your first 3 months as a student at the Forensic Institute, you'll be able to eat your lunch again... Uhm, O...k. Only 3 months without lunch... sounds good. Should help you lose a bit of weight. [insert evil cackle here]
