The process of trying

Alright. I've come to a decision. It was tough. But it has to be done.

After the MCATs, I am euthanizing my basil plant. Putting down. Bringing to an end. Putting into tomato sauce.

Despite my pride in harboring stationary living creatures, this truly has gone on for too long. I've neglected it. Ignored it. Then come running back, watering it with... well ... water. It's overrun its pot, too freakishly tall because I've managed to forget to trim it every time it branches, which, by the way, has happened more than 37 times. (haha. whoops.)

Now, I'll have to find a bigger pot and new peat and moss for my orchid plant if I don't want it to run away too. It's definitely in the process of trying.
