Doxie Derby!
The class of 2010 VPs have put a lot of work into the 2008 Doxie Derby, so if you're in the Davis area this weekend come on out to Picnic Day and make sure you stop by the Rec Hall for the races!
Other quick updates:
-Turkey planning: we've started fundraising...I feel like a sketchball sending out fundraising letters. I've been thinking about it a lot, so here goes...after reading THIS, I've realized my main love language is "acts of service." Any sort of self-sacrificing, taking-time-out-of-your-day kind of thing is VERY meaningful to me. I would include sending money in that category. So sending out a mass of letters requesting money freaks me out. I feel like I'm begging for love. Throw in a pretty fierce independent streak and I almost can't handle it. Even though I understand the benefits of fundraising (people getting to be a part of your trip, getting a chance to express generosity, etc), I still can't shake the feeling. That being said, please don't tease me if I send you a letter. :)
-I quit my job as a tour guide. Sad, but I have NO time. As in, zero. Period.
-I set up my first externship for senior year. CRAP CRAP CRAP 4th year is coming up soon!!!
-I was surfing job listings online, and someone mentioned that there are some practices in the Midwest that will pay off your vet school loans if you commit to food animal practice with them for a certain number of years...hmmm....must look into it...

Just keep swimming!
Sometimes it's hard to stay positive, but I'm doing my utmost!
On the bright side, the demands of school are teaching me to be more selective with my time. On the one hand, it doesn't make me a bad person when I decline invitations because I'm tired/have to study/just need a night to myself. On the other hand, there are times when school can no longer be priority number 1.
Great news! I just acquired a horse limb of my very own!! It's currently chillin in the lye tank at school, so that in a couple weeks it will be a lovely set of bones for me to learn/teach. Woohoo!! Right now I only have a front leg, but by the end of the quarter I'll have a hind leg too. Pictures will be posted once the bones have dried.
