Old Hickory.

Loving the new Janet Jackson.

I decided I'm over TFA.
Mom agreed they were stupid.
Bitter? meeybe....but its ok.
Nothing should make me lose track of med school.

Today was such an easy going day.
Woke up at 1pm.
Watched a PBS special about Andrew Jackson.
A fascinating man.
Truly a man of the 18th century would aptly describe him in my mind.

Then I took a nap.
Vicki came home,
Mom came home.
Dad called and he's working really really late.
Had some pot roast.
Treated Mom to a mocha a starbucks,
Oh how I love thee!
Now it is time to pack.

Asta luego Tampa!
Bienvenidos a Neuvo Orleans jueves!



Tampa's itty bitty downtown :)

Ratatouille!



I got Ratatouille for Christmas and I just LOVE it! I keep watching it over and over, and other people keep wanting to see it over and over. It is just great! Went to Borders for the fifth night in a row. My mother is a bad influence. Coffee every night at 9pm combined with sleeping in till 2pm because I have nothing to do has me staying up till 5am. Whatever, I'm on vacation!

I'm excited for my last semester of school. I have a med school interview in two weeks, cross your fingers. I may need to try prayer. Things were so crazy towards the end of last semester. I'm feeling like a granny more and more.

I find out if I got into Teach for America Monday! We'll see where they put me. I'm hoping for St. Louis (my first choice). My second choices were Kansas City (because it was a new site) and New Orleans (comfort I guess, but no Master's program :-/) and then my third choices were New York City and Boston (the only downside is that those are expensive cities to live in and the teacher's pay isn't comparable.



As a side note, I am determined to learn French! It is my goal for the year. I don't plan on being a grammatical genius, but mostly basics and enough to get around if I ever make it to Paris. It is my new obsession. I've always liked it, but very recently I've just had this part of me that is yearning to go there. I wish I had both the time and the money!
