White Coat Ceremony

Since Sam is in the pharmacy program he has a "white coat" ceremony.

Which I think is essentially to welcome him into the profession.

Anyway this happened, oh two months ago or something like that.

I snapped a few photos that I thought I would share.

The best part is that Sam was randomly selected for a scholarship $250.

It may not be big money, but any thing helps!

Until next time!

Weekend Review

This was a odd weekend compared to the ones that I normally have.

I braced myself all week with the knowledge that we wouldn't get to leave the dreadful city of Pocatello.

So when Friday finally came it wasn't the most awful feeling in the world.

We had to stay here this weekend because Sam and I both had our interviews.

Sam's was Friday and he think that it went pretty well.

They send out acceptance letter March 29 and 30.

My interview was Saturday. Everything went pretty well.

They had us take a reasoning test which was super lame.

One of the questions was like this:

An ID badge or guest pass is required to get in the maternity ward.

What does this mean?

A) If you are in the ward you have to have an ID badge.

B) If you are in the ward you may have a guest pass.

C) If are were not allowed in the ward you did not have a guest pass.

And blah blah blah

It was slightly ridiculous.

But I did it and got it done.

I should hear whether I am accepted by April 1.

Hopefully we will both get in and be one step closer to finishing.

After my interview, the weather was absolutely beautiful.

So we went and got some frozen yogurt.

Then Sam's parents came down to take us out to dinner.

We went to the Red Lobster. 

It was delicious as usual!

We all love seafood, so the Red Lobster was a no brainer.

Did you guys do anything fun this weekend??

Let me know!

Seriously!

Until next time!

Another week come and gone.

1) No matter the grades that I got on my two tests and two papers, they are DONE!

3) The beautiful weather that we have this weekend and part of this week.

4) Sam's interview is today and then we just wait to hear if he got accepted to the Pharmacy program.

Friday Favorites

1) Did I ever tell you guys that my genius husband was invited to the Pharmacy interview? Well he was and interviews next Friday. ALL. DAY. 

2) I was also invited to the Dental Hygiene interview next Saturday.

3) Realizing that my next week from junk is next week and not this week.

4) Buying some super cute fabric for some baby shower gifts.

5) We filed our taxes this week. I can hardly wait for March 7th.

6) I did not have English class all week because we had the time off to talk with our professor about the 1600 word paper we wrote due Monday. I better start that....

7) My political science professor pushing our test and paper back by like a week and a half. I also better get started on that paper. Yikes.

Until next time!

To Transfer....

Or to not transfer is the question that Sam and I have been plagued with this semester. Sam made the decision this semester that this would be the last semester of studying mechanical engineering. Instead he has made the decision to study pharmacy. I am pretty excited about this because that means we could live pretty much wherever we wanted after he graduated from school. But it also means that he has a lot longer in school left than we originally thought. Right after high school he left for his mission, so he is only in his third semester. He was just about to apply to the ME program after the semester, but not anymore. He hasn't really taken any classes that help him get into pharmacy school. So we are looking at about three more semester of prerequisites, and then once he is accepted, pharmacy school is four years. They certainly make you do a lot of work for that Doctorate of Pharmacy degree. So since Sam has changed his major, we had to start thinking about where he would want to go to school. his first choice is Idaho State University. That works out well for me because they also have a dental hygiene program. We applied for the Fall semester of 2011 and still need to send transcripts and such. We are pretty sure that we will get in to the school but we each have a few more classes to take before we can apply to our perspective programs. Why transfer in the fall you ask? Well because if Sam gets most of his prerequisites from there it looks better, and they give priority to Idaho residents. Also I should be able to apply to the Dental Hygiene program in December 2011 for the Fall 2012 semester. So I would need to be there already and all that jazz. Ah the joys of being a college student. I can hardly wait to be done with it all. However it is looking like I have three years left at least. Flip, flip, flip that is forever. But I will have a Bachelors Degree in Dental Hygiene from ISU, most other schools only give you an Associates Degree. So there is a plus side of it all.

Until next time!
