Park City
On our day of freedom from work and school (yay for presidents all having birthdays around the same time!), we decided to take a little drive and see what all this Park City business is about. Unfortunately, we still don't really understand. We ate at the #1 rated restaurant on Urbanspoon and found it quite lackluster (at least it was cheap, a rare thing in Park City). Don't worry, you can read about it on my food site soon :) Then we found Main Street after driving through much brown and ice, and decided that it was basically like Cannon Beach with snow. Lots of art galleries, expensive restaurants, and places that sell things that are functionless for a lot of money. We did get to see how skiers and snowboarders can practically ski right on in to the middle of the city which was pretty cool, but sadly, I'm not into the whole strapping woods onto my feet and going down a steep incline of ice thing. It was fun to get away for a little bit (even though we'll likely never return...) and we really enjoyed the bookstore Atticus, and at least we didn't have school! Plus we saw these super killer icicles...brrr....

Busy Lately
Sorry I haven't blogged in FOREVER...I just feel like after I write my Eat BYU post every day that I am all out of words! Plus things haven't been super exciting around here lately. The average week goes like this:
Monday: School and research until 6, make dinner, watch The Bachelor at Sarah's house and have some quality girl time
Tuesday: School until 4, make dinner, watch Eureka
Wednesday: School and research until 5, make dinner, watch Eureka
Thursday: School and research until 4, make dinner, watch Eureka, maybe a church thing
Friday: No school, run errands all day, go out to dinner, watch Eureka
Saturday: No school, clean the house, go out to dinner, watch Eureka
That's about it.
We're kind of obsessed.
So unless you want to hear my opinions on the nerdiest but most awesome show of all time (yeah, Eureka), then I don't really have all that much more to say right now. We should do something exciting besides eating...and watching Eureka...
P.S. Here is what I got Owen for Valentine's Day. It's totally impractical and not useful in any way, but I thought they were just too dang cute!
They are little stuffed microbes! Included in this box is an egg cell, sperm cell, mono bacteria ("kissing disease), amoeba, and penicillin.
This post is mostly evidence to support how nerdy I am...
Hope you had a great Valentine's Day!

A Quick One
I really should be studying for my test since I want to take it early tomorrow morning and then go with my visiting teacher to buy dark chocolate pomegranate seeds at Costco .... SOOOO here it is: I got into a pharmacy school! Yay! I got into my back up school, which is really nice because now I know, either way, I will be able to get a pharmacy degree and my whole undergraduate experience won't have been a waste! I also got a call from my #1 school today, and was offered an interview! I will be interviewing there on February 24th, the day after Owen's birthday! Yikes!
Anyway, just thought you should know, and also here is a cool link that shows on lds.org where the apostles have been lately and what they have been teaching. Awesome!

If you don't, then good for you -- you are a normal person who probably has a life. However, for me, they are all names of genes that affect segmentation patterns in Drosophila, and I have to memorize their functions by tomorrow. Yeah, they are things that determine how fruit flies develop. I know, you are so jealous of me right now.
Mhm. That's a fruit fly embryo. Now you know. Have a good weekend.
