“In the end we will conserve only what we love.

We will love only what we understand.

We will understand only what we are taught."

~Baba Dioum (Environmentalist)
I have now crossed off all projects left from my to-do-list...Only two (2) finals left - I take one today, and the other tomorrow...I look forward to take those exams, since the professors for those two classes are my favorite. I am also looking forward to being done with this semester - YES!

P.S. I did not hear from (***) Internship Program, so I'm assuming I didn't get in. I still have chances of getting into one of two programs left from the pool that I applied to - I'll hear from those by the end of this month.

- Tomorrow, I'm going to "do" my loudest SCREAM. I usually scream when I'm done with each semester...Tomorrow will be a special day though.

- Lots of surprises coming on Saturday...

Countdown + To Do List for Today...

4 days, and I'll be done with this semester - I take my last exam this Friday. Wish me luck (i.e, that I don't "fail" one of my classes, or else, I'll end up taking a class this summer - my grades have suffered this semester)

Tomorrow I get to know whether I have been admitted to one of the internship programs on this second round

To do list:

* Submit my Final HACCP Plan

* Submit my current management philosophy statement (for my Management in Dietetics class)

* Do some Wiki edits (for my Clinical 2 class)

* Prepare for my Finance exam, which I'll be taking tomorrow

P.S. Not looking forward to my Finance exam - I did not "enjoy" this class as I did the other business classes I took...This class did not meet my expectations, unfortunately...I just pray that I "pass" it...

The Count Down...

Exactly one week till the end of the semester

Three days till I hear from internships (second round)

Exactly two weeks before sister comes from Boston

Three weeks and 5 days till Grandparents go back home

7 weeks before we leave for Tunisia

I took my first final this morning, and it was great; at least easier than I had anticipated. In Exam I, we had to conduct a Hazard Analysis for a product (Hotdogs), and the computer I was working from at my proctor's office just somehow stopped working when I arrived to the HA question! That's when I figured out I have no choice, but to write it down on paper and then have my proctor email it to my instructor as a scanned attachment, along with the other exam material - it wasn't fun...I take my second final on Tuesday (i.e. two days of cramming)...

You Know It's Time to Diet When...

You dance and it makes the band skip.

You are diagnosed with the flesh-eating virus, and the doctor gives you 22 more years to live.

You put mayonnaise on an aspirin.

You go to the zoo and the elephants throw you peanuts.

Your driver's license says, "Picture continued on other side."

You ran away and they had to use all four sides of the milk carton for your picture.

You learn you were born with a silver shovel in your mouth.

You could sell shade.

Your blood type is Ragu.

I take my first final tomorrow - Yikes!!!
