That's awesome.. You do know, Ohio State is a really, really good school for engineering. Just as you know, it is one of the top majors chosen at the college.Quote:

I'm here :) Thanks for asking!
So much has happened since March; it's just been absolutely insane...
- I graduated from high school (finally... LOL)
- I chose UC Berkeley and will be moving in this Saturday. Go Bears! :D I was a little upset that I did not get into my first choice (Cornell University), but, admittedly, it was my "reach" school and I'll have a second chance (vet school). So, I'm very happy with UC Berkeley.
- I've been juggling a lot of dog behavior stuff: working with a lot of 'problem' dogs, working more with Ivy (she makes so proud), got a mentor a la an extremely well-renowned veterinary behaviorist/author/speaker/ethology professor, planning to attend the APDT conference this October, etc.
...I'm basically doing everything I can to make myself one of the best potential veterinary behaviorists I can. I can't believe it took me so long to find this field, but I'm passionately in love with it. I love it, love, love, love, love it. And it comes so naturally. My plan is to attend either UC Davis, Cornell, or UPenn after Berkeley and then get my board certification. So, check back on me in 10 years and, hopefully, I'll have some letters before and after my name :D
- I went to Thailand in July for about three weeks. Of the main highlights, we visited the Chiang Mai Elephant Nature Park = amazing. One of the most enlightening moments of my life. Will write more/post pics about it maybe later.
In less exciting, a bit more negative news...
- My budgies passed away. I only have the three dogs now. The house is a little less chaotic, heh.
- I crashed my car. I'm now car-less until the shop returns it, so I'm rediscovering the joys of public transportation.
So, there you go! I'm here! Bombard me with news! =)
Congratulations on getting accepted into UC Berkely, that is quite an achievement!
Will you live on campus or at home? I keep telling my daughter to apply there and she says no thanks I don't want to do homework 24/7:D
Oh, it'll be tough, but it will be more than worth it. SO many doors are open right now! :) I don't know what's going to happen in the next couple years, but I'm staying on campus this year. I need to socialize LOL.
We went to check out Cal Poly this weekend. My daughter went to check out UC San Diego a month ago. Those are her top options. I broke my foot in may and had surgery and I am just now getting back to normal.
She did receive a dive scouting letter from Cornell, I think a lot of east coast colleges try to get divers from the west coast.
You only have three dogs now? I thought you only had three before: Ivy, Giselle and Lucky. Am I forgetting something?
I'm sorry to hear about your budgies and your car accident. I'm glad you are okay though. And congrats on starting college! :D
I think she meant no budgies, just three dogs, at least thats how I understood it.Quote:
