RAVE HERE thread

My favorite dog at work got adopted today! I'm a little upset that I didn't get to say bye but I'm so glad she found a nice home. She had a FHO and is still healing so it took her a long while to get adopted (six months). I'm going to miss her grumpy bull dog face.
 
I felt really pretty today 😳

👍 ME TOO!

I wore a dress today. It was pretty outside and I didn't have to go to a barn today, so I put on something cute. 😎 It was nice.
 
Since everyone felt pretty, I flat ironed my hair tonight. This way I don't have to wear it in a ponytail tomorrow. 😍

I figured out how to get my results looking like there are supposed to for my honors thesis project yesterday. Also I found out my teacher was really nice on the last test we took and I got an 82 even though I was pretty sure I failed (she had multiple choice with multiple right answers and ended up giving everyone full credit if they got at least one of the right answers she she didn't prepare us for it).
 
UF just sent us our tentative Fall class schedule

I want fun things! Ohio doesn't send us fun things (at least not yet anyway). Maybe I should have gone to UF? Lol...

👍😀

We've gotten all kinds of things, housing, financial aids, schedules..
There is a list they sent us of emails we would be receiving, and they send one a day... it's like christmas morning... or the 8 days of Hanukkah I guess
😍
 
It may also be because our class has been finalized. Maybe they are waiting to fill all the spots? :shrug:

Lol. I <3 Chanukah! So much better than Christmas (my friends would all be jealous in December when I was little..."You get 8 days of presents?!?!).

All we got was a silly welcome email. Which still caused me to jump up and down like a crazy person for a while.

We have a webpage with most everything for the incoming class. Definitely cool but less exciting than emails. True that they may also still be trying to fill the class. It looks like the OSU waitlist is still moving a bit (Nordicat got a call yesterday or the day before). I still want stuff!! Hehe.
 
I have an interview at the top referral center in the DC metro area!! The position I am interviewing for is in emergency and critical care (what I want to do my residency in)😍. So excited! They have 23 doctors (all specialists) and top of the line equipment!

Just got a call from my boss who said I will be on full time when I get back home. The reason I applied for the job was because she initially only had me working 22hrs/week. They really need me to take over for the tech that is leaving and are going to train me for her position. I really don't know what to do. I think it will have to come down to pay and hours.😕

Two raves: #1) I secured myself a summer job working at a lovely little vet clinic in the city. It's a small clinic with only one vet, so I'll be getting tons of hands on experiences. He does house calls as well and will be bringing me along with him. I've shadowed at larger clinics before and all I ever got to do was help restrain animals and do laundry. Finally a job in a small animal clinic!

I was working with a vet doing embryo transfer in dairy cows but I wasn't getting the hours I needed to pay my bills. So, I'm excited to have found something.

Rave #2) I had my mock interview and it went great. I was really nervous for it but it turned out I was very well prepared and actually felt comfortable sitting there and answering their questions. Hopefully, I can do as well for my real interview!
 
Look who's not only still alive but starting to look like a real kitty!

Might have to keep this one. Not going to lie... But I haven't kept any of the other 30 kittens I've raised. So I deserve this one right?!

Such a beautiful little kitty! Glad she is still alive!!

DO IT!!!!!

I want fun things too. 🙁 But I think OSU is going to move even slower this year. Right now they are on the verge of the semester switch (in 6 weeks or so) and all departments are trying to finalize that. Plus, I heard the vet school doesn't send out financial aid, etc until June.

So, I am going to sit tight and try to contain my anxiousness. Oh, and I have to finalize this whole living situation thing. 🙄

I hope they don't move super slow. Lol. I'll go crazy!

Honestly, though, they can hold off on financial aid as long as they want. I really don't want to see that $80k price tag until absolutely necessary. I would love info about orientation or my big sib, though 🙂

Okay, I am glad that you mentioned the big sib program. I thought I was the only one who was anxious to know who my big sib will be! 😀 I know quite a few people in the class of '15, so I am wondering if it will be one of them or a random stranger. But honestly, everyone that I have met from that class is amazing! (Although a few of them are a little intimidating)

Skipped my lunch hour and got off earlier. Stopped to eat at the korean restaurant. They messed up my ramen order and because it wasn't exactlY my order they made a second ramen for me. I ate the majority of both. Feel fat, but have a warm belly

Picking up my boyfriend at the airport tomorrow 😀 Then I will attempt to study for our last exam and then hit the road for home! I will stop at Taco Bell for dinner and it will be glorious.

👍👍

No have not yet. Usually stick to my neighborhood or if I go into the city then I stay around Dawson/Grafton/George St area and the streets in between. Don't go as far up as O'Connell.

I only ask because the bartender there was pretty cool. Our flights were cancelled for 7 days in a row and every time we came back from the airport, we would stop in and he would laugh at us. We also got to see him pick up an old guy and throw him out for harassing me :laugh:

Jeez how was your flight cancelled that many days in a row?! :laugh:

Mother F-ing volcano in Iceland lol

The worst part was that we had to keep going back and forth to the airport everyday or we would lose our spot in "line" and the line included every single person flying in and out of Europe 🙄
 
Not exactly a rave, but I feel the need to share anyway.

Just vaccinated my 40 lb dog with a 25 gauge needle. (Side note: This dog delights in trying to eat most other dogs and rough housing with those he 'deems worthy')

And he cried like a little baby as soon as he felt the poke. SUCH a princess sometimes. 😍

Meanwhile my neurotic 25 lb sheepdog wagged her tail the whole time while pretending to play dead.
 
The Kentucky Rolex 3-Day Starts tomorrow and I can barely contain my excitement to watch!! Too bad only the bare minimum is covered on tv.
The horses look great this year though and looks like the US is going to have a great Olympic team to send to London

Me too! But I thought they were live streaming it this year. Did I make that up? The course looks beautiful as usual!

Nice excuse 😉.
This recipe is similar, so I'm sure you can just substitute pancake mix for the dry ingredients they use for theirs. Also, I candied the bacon on mine :meanie:.

You'd probably have to add sugar to the dry mix too...
I will type my recipe up sometime soon... remind me if I forget!

awesome!! i'm leaving grenada in 2.5 weeks, what else am i supposed to do with an entire box of mix other than pancakes (which are of course delicious, and my go-to dinner if i cant decide what i want haha). it wont keep over the summer, i'd come back to a solid block (the humidity here is ridiculous)
 
I love my cat!
Her favorite toy lately has been a rubber bouncy ball, which she brought up to me in bed (where I was sitting reading) this evening and dropped in front of me.
Of course, once we got downstairs playing, she chases after it and then, when it stops moving, just looks up at me and makes me crawl around to go find it and throw again.


Also, GO CAPS!!

Dearest Emi - type up your recipe pleaseeee!!!! I'm settling with just eating it with my eyes for now :laugh:
 
Laughing so hard! My dog is super vocal. People always thinks she is growling, but it is more like strong worded excitement. So I am sitting here on my laptop and she has her frisbee. She does her talking and I decide to mimic her. We just spent 5 minutes going back and forth. So ridiculous!

Awesome 😀. My dog does a perfect Chubaka and I have now trained her to do it on command. I say "Chubaka" and she "broobroobroo"s or however you could possibly begin to spell out that noise 🙄
