Thanksgiving has come and gone, so finals are upon me. Right now I have only two cups of milk, two slices of bread, and some eggs to tide me through until Friday.....I have a feeling I will be eating out at least once in the next three days. I had my nutrition "test" today. All I can say, it that there is a reason why there are registered dietitians, because our survey of nutrition is hardly adequate to help people. I have strong feeling about what people eat, so I know I will have to pursue further study in this area myself. Our next final is on genetics. This class has been surprisingly interesting. I am even considering using one of my elective rotations to do a genetic couseling program.

I have a small Christmas tree up here in our apartment. It is sort of sad right now, because I haven't had time to get ornaments. I hope to fix that probably this Saturday when I go out shopping to get the rest of my presents. I only have four people left on my list......thank god for e-shopping!

The wedding plans are rolling along smoothly. I hope to have the dress, flowers, and bridesmaids taken care of by the end of December. Invitations, menu, music, guest lists, and program will follow up in March and May. The guest list is looking to be a bit of a battle, as both the Larson and the Beckmans are blessed with large families and lots of good friends. This wedding could easily bankrupt both families! Hopefully the compromise I struck with my parents and the Larson will prevent this!

Well, I need to get back to studying patterns of inheirtance. The disease of choice this semester is colon cancer. .......

Oh...just a reminder....only 9 shopping days until my birthday (12-10)
