Almost Last Lasts

One final down, and two left to go! It's been really hard to concentrate on studying when I have things like cleaning and packing to do. And it's just always really hard to concentrate on studying for finals. I had my biotransport phenomena final this morning, which wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. I have biomechanics and biophysiology back to back on Thursday evening, which is going to be a blast since they are my hardest classes.

I have almost finished packing, and I can definitely tell that I have WAY too much packed, and I keep adding to the pile. I'm going to have to go through this again tomorrow and take some stuff out.

There are definitely benefits to having friends all over the country. One person that I met when we lived next door to each other on study abroad in Paris two summers ago lives in Illinois -- and has told me apparently the best place in Chicago to get deep dish pizza. Ellen, I will be forever in your debt =D

So here I sit, once again procrastinating studying, while listening to the new Glee soundtrack and playing around. I really have to buckle down! I filled out the rest of my paperwork today for my job, all stating that I was a US citizen and therefore could actually work for a company in the US.

About Abbott -- did you know that Abbott manufactures products like Pediasure, Pedialyte, Ensure, and Myoplex? I didn't know that! They also manufacture a bunch of devices for laboratory diagnostics, medical optics (Complete Solution for contacts...used that at some point in my life), and diabetes care, as well as all of their biomedical products like stents. They also are based all over the world -- perfect for my future aspirations of being an ex-pat! 

This time next week I will finished with my second day of work. I've been hitting up some of my favorite places in San Luis Obispo is preparation of not having them for three months....and the fact that I really don't want to go grocery shopping for three days worth of food. Bali's yogurt....delicious. And I went to my last running practice this afternoon -- don't worry, Coach, I'll run in Chicago, I promise! I'm up to 2 miles on my shorter days and 3-4 miles on my long runs now, hopefully that'll get longer by the end of the summer.

So, now I guess I am finished procrastinating even longer. G'night everyone!
