I volunteer at The Living Planet Aquarium now it has been pretty fun. It's a little scary having people ask all these questions and not knowing all the answers but otherwise it has been great. I keep learning more and more which is the best part.
I started shadowing a Veterinarian a little bit too. I am actually really glad I found this guy I went to about ten Vets before him and found nobody. Most of them said leave your resume and then that's all I heard from them. If I ever have an animal in Utah County I want to take my pets to him. The whole shadowing/ volunteering thing has been a frustrating ordeal. I'm pretty sure every Vet school you are going to find is going to require Vet clinic hours. In Maryland I got a lot of emails giving out jobs to work at a vet clinic without needing experience. The job was there to give you experience. In Utah just volunteering is hard to come by. I'm still not sure if I want to be a Vet, the job seems fine I just really liked working at the endocrine lab for the Smithsonian. Maybe I will just go into research instead?
Dane surprised me last week for my birthday by taking me to the Scottish Festival & Highland Games It was a surprise I didn't even know that was going on that weekend. I had a really good time. We watched some athletic tournaments. It was amazing what some of those guys could lift and throw. We watched a lot of Irish Step Dancers. They had all these booths with people that had ancestors from Scotland. We found clan Macleoud :) Dane and I both tried haggis which I thought was really gross. I think Dane thought it was okay. Dane bought me this really nice purse which I wouldn't have let him buy had I known he had a gift waiting for me the next day.
The next day my mom had a barbeque for our family and Dane's family. I had a good time and thought it was really nice of them to all come and for my mom to do the barbeque.
