Mixed Emotions

Well... My day has had it's ups and downs. I cut a lot of my hair off this morning (over 5 inches), and now have it above my shoulders. I'm pretty fond of it this way! I needed a change.

I also got back my physics exam and did much better than expected (yay for an A!). However, I also found out that I didn't get the dairy internship, which is pretty disappointing, since that is the one I really wanted. I should know about the FDA internship by mid-March, and I'm fairly certain that the deadline for the NIH recipients has already passed, so this one is really my last bet. If nothing pays out, I might be applying to work at Petsmart, Petco or anywhere that will take me. Not exactly what I want to do this Summer, but sometimes we just have to bite the bullet.

Tomorrow morning I am headed to the APVMA National Symposium in Florida with 6 other members of the pre-vet club. The school is footing the bill 100%, so I'm definitely  happy about that! It should be a fantastic experience. We are staying at the Hilton, and will have a dinner/welcome on Friday evening, all day at the CVM on Saturday attending labs and lectures, and another dinner/social that night. Friday includes pre-vet olympics which should be... interesting.

I am pretty worried since I have my cell mid-term on Tuesday, and the last exam wasn't stellar. I have already started studying, but I'm extremely nervous. My plane rides will be full of intense study-time. Wish me luck!
