week 1 picture roundup!

Part of my New Year's resolution - to take at least 1 picture a day!

1/2/11 - the 2nd day of the new year and settling into some routines. Knitting, studying, etc! 



1/3/11 - Monday before the exam. Spent the day doing some last minute studying, then driving down to Buffalo to stay over at the Red Roof Inn.


1/4/11 - After the end of the written part of the compounding exam, I developed a deep and abiding hunger for Chipotle's fajita bowl. YUM.


1/5/11 - Day of the lab portion of the exam! A shot of Cooke Hall in the early morning.


1/6/11 - Back in Syracuse and starting a full day of work.

1/7/11 - Driving on the thruway can be sorta scenic.... sorta sometimes! 

1/8/11 - I have the best hubby ever! Got me a new lens with a hood and all other sorts of goodies. LOVE!

troubles in threes?

I remember reading that trouble comes in groups of threes... so far:

1. Took compounding exam on Tues and Weds
2. Lost credit card
3. Overdrawn on debit account

Please tell me this isn't so! Ugh.

Half of the Battle...

Actually, technically 40% of the battle. The written portion of the Part III exam was today, and I hope that I comported myself decently... although I already know that I got one of the error and omissions things wrong! Oh well... must not obsess...

I'm in Buffalo now, which was pleasantly snowless when I was driving in but has apparently decided to steadily flutter down snow since last night. Ah, good ole Buffalo and the lake effect, friends forever! And now the slow-sucking mild studying for the compounding part... gotta remind myself not to blow this one!

I thought that while I was away I could update my blog with the pics I was taking each day but then I forgot to bring my card reader, teehee. But at least one resolution has not been broken yet! And working hard on the other two =D

welcome to 1/1/11~!

New day of the new year! And the start of a resolution - first pic posted of the year:


An exciting day of study, peppered with  cross-stitch and Lifetime movies. Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants and the surprisingly watchable Maneater starring Sarah Chalke (of Scrubs fame!). Maybe I should make another resolution - cut down on Lifetime!
