Day 102

Day 102:

Architects have been on campus for the past couple days, and....they want to renovate P/W and make Lage into a Student Center! It's kinda exciting, but also sad since I probably won't see it while I'm here. :)

They also want to build a skywalk across the street!!!! Really, really, really exciting.

Here's a 3D model picture from their presentation today.

Day 100!!! and 101

Day 100: June 9th

I filled up with gas. While you can't spot the typo below, it says "Don't overfill, tank", like it was specifically talking to a tank :) It made me smile, as a grammar nazi.

EDIT: I zoomed in! :)

Day 101: June 10th

PLAZAAAA! I haven't been there in almost 3 weeks and I thought I was going to die. Thankfully, Brandyn and Bryce wanted to go :) (and then we went shopping...bad idea!)

Day 98 & 99

Day 98: Monday, June 7th

I'm currently applying to medical school. So, I have to write gobs of personal statements about why I'm the best candidate for their prestigious institution.

Last night, I finished the FIRST draft of many of my personal statement, while watching The Devil Wears Prada. :)

So, here's the cover art for that! If you've never seen it or read the book, I recommend doing both.

Day 99: Tuesday, June 8th

During Finals Week, Jen and I decided we should study before our Tuesday 2:30 pm final in the Molecular Lab, where there is plenty of white board space. We studied, laughed a lot, and then went and rocked our finals.

However, apparently, the information we wrote on the boards was so crucial to that lab that the eraser-happy janitors decided to spare this information. I found it today, and laughed a bit at the memories. :)

So, here it is!

Day 89-97

You will have to forgive my photo fails.

I'm terribly sorry. But, I won't count days I don't have photos as actual days so there will still be 365 photos by the time I'm done. :)

(May 22nd-May 27th: Total blur. Moved over from Swope, didn't have a lot of free time. Sorry!)

Day 89: Friday, May 28th

On my drive home for Memorial Day weekend, I stopped in Odebolt to fill up on water. There was this little old lady in the doorway who mumbled something as I walked in and I didn't hear her. So, I stopped, and as politely as possible, said "What?" :) She then repeated that she was selling these flowers for her local VFW, and that it was a free-will donation. I gave her a couple dollars, and now this lovely flower resides by my speedometer, replacing the one Kim gave me (previous posts) which has been long gone. :)

Day 90: Saturday, May 29th

Katrina invited me to this masquerade party, which I was at first a bit skeptical about. However, once I got there and realized Corey, Kayce, Kar

Day 91: Sunday, May 30th

My car makes this squeaking noise as I drive. So, when I came home, I brought it to the shop where I had gotten work done before. They wanted 600+ for it. Dad, of course, said no. I brought the car home, and 5 hours and $200 later, he had the problem fixed! :)

That's why it rocks to have an amazing dad!

Day 92: Monday, May 31st

I drove home for Memorial Day, and around Omaha. While I had a blast, my car is sure showing the mileage! :)

Day 93: Tuesday, June 1st

I've officially started my job in the Science Center on campus. Here is a smily face I made with ethanol while I was cleaning a lab bench in the Genetics lab :). Basically, my job is to clean up everything from the school year and prepare the professors for the next year by making solutions, etc. In other words, TONS of fun! :)

Day 94: Wednesday, June 2nd

Another one of my jobs this summer is to look at things we have, and decide if we need to buy more stuff. This is a micro kit for Organic Chemistry, which you can perform a great deal of experiments out of. I organized over 30 of these! :)

Day 95: Thursday, June 3rd

Every day, I write on the board "Grant is..." and add the location where I am if I'm not in my set location in the science center, so people know where to find me.

When I left one day, Dr. Lenzmeier brought his two sons in, who decided to fill in the blank message. :)

Apparently, I'm awesome!

Day 96: Friday, June 4th

This past year has been a blast. To show how AMAZING it has been, I've decided I'm going to print off a bunch of the pictures from this past year and make a little mural for my wall next school year. Here are the first couple ones. (On a side note, your first couple prints through walgreens.com are FREE!) :)

(Saturday, June 5th I was sleeping/working/studying. So, I didn't find a useful picture)

Day 97: Sunday, June 6th

Driving back to the dorms after a grueling 12 hours of work, I noticed some birds on the side of the road! I was literally 10 feet away from these birds. The little birds are so adorable! :)

However, since I was so close, I think I was freaking out the mama bird who started to hiss at me. Whoops!
