12.5%

Why do I love that number so much? Because 12.5% is exactly 1/8, which is exactly how much pharmacy school I have completed!!! I cannot believe the first semester went by so quickly! I am amazed. It was harder than I thought, easier than I thought, funner than I thought, more boring than I thought, more time consuming than I thought, less demanding than I thought...it pretty much exceeded all my expectations. I LOVED IT! I have seen many haggard second and third-year students around campus this week, so it must only get worse, but doesn't that have a lot to do with your attitude? We'll see how that theory pans out in another year. :)

Here is what I did yesterday:

• slept in
• laid on the couch all morning
• watched youtube clips of "Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives"
• ate lunch
  
• took a nap
• woke up and watched more clips of the Triple D

Ok, I wasn't totally lazy. I did straighten up a little so that if anyone popped in they wouldn't see me lying around in squalor. But, I didn't shower, I didn't get dressed in real clothes, I didn't brush my hair until Evan called to say he was on his way home (I can't have him thinking I'm a total slob, can I?)... I didn't even get the mail because it was too much work to look decent enough to go outside. I loved my first day of Christmas break.

So what should I do with the rest of my time? Any suggestions?

P.S. For the Utah hot spots featured on DDD, check out these clips of Ruth's, Moochie's, Red Iguana, Burger Bar, Pat's BBQ, Blue Plate, and Lone Star. Collectively, this is about 45 minutes of TV, so enjoy them all when you have some spare time, which for pretty much everyone except me, won't be until after the New Year.

P.P.S. And just because I know you're all so interested, I've eaten at Red Iguana, Pat's, and Blue Plate. They're all fabulous. Although, I had to give Red Iguana several tries because I don't like mole, but it's one of Evan's favorites restaurants so I plowed through. I've found the Chile Colorado platter that I love, but I'm for sure trying those tacos that they talked about in the clip the next time we go. Maybe some of my time this break should be spent trying out the other restaurants. Anyone want to meet me for lunch?
