Check-in



Home sweet home for the next 33 days. For some reason it seems long yet short at the same time. Long because I will be missing everyone back home but short because I have so little time to do everything there is to do in Dallas. I believe we are taking a biochemistry class, embryology, ethics, and anatomy. I am pretty sure we get to work on cadavers this summer but the syllabus has not been handed out. They made sure when we got there that we would know how much work is ahead and what exactly should be expected of us. Everyone is super friendly and I ran into some familiar faces. I am so thankful my roomie is not weird, but down to earth AND she brought one more pair of shoes than I did :P we will get along real well haha. So blogging I've found takes up a lot of time...So I may be blogging every other day.




So we woke up around 8:30 AM this morning at Jonathan's place and got ready to sight-see. We wanted some Korean food, and I heard that Royal Lane is the best place to go, but since they weren't open yet we tried this place called Cafe Bakery and got these pizza/pig in a blanket looking things. They were yummy.




Just thought this was cool, a vending machine for doggies!

Then we headed to a garden in Dallas but they don't allow dogs in OR in the car...seriously?! So instead we drove right down the street to White Rock Lake. White Rock is a 9 Mile wide lake with trails for bikers and runners. It was kind of annoying driving while trying not to run over bikers in the street, there were so many! At one end of the lake there was a dog park, so we let Richie out to be harassed by big dogs that wanted to lick him. Just thought the two dogs in the above picture were funny.



After the park we went back to the Korean restaurant where we ate sub-par Dolsot bibimbap, chapchae, hamul pajun, and shrimp tempura. This was my fortune... came true I suppose.




Thennnnn after thattt we went to Inwood area when we stopped at I heart Yogurt for some froyo. We stepped into a sports store and I tried on more hats! This was more of a joke though, I would never wear this hat haha.



My full size bed :) a definite upgrade from my twin at home haha. The comforter is amazing, as well as the 4!!! super fluffed pillows. At home I only have one very flat pillow...



Living Area



These shoes were made for walking... I will wear every single pair of shoes, just watch! haha There wasn't enough closet space so I just lined them up in the living area.



This is what I ate the first night. Fine dining yall :) Every morning and night is a buffet o.O I won't get fat, I won't eat another cookie, I will work out....

After dinner I headed back upstairs to blog and finish unpacking. Then headed to the lounge on the 11th for a game board night. There was balderdash, scene it!, and cranium, but all we played for 2 hours was taboo haha. MAN I sucked sooo bad the first round. TAKEOVER=brainfart. I couldn't describe it....I blame the lack of sleep haha.

So anyway there are so many pictures I want to include but then this post would be too long. I guess I will regurgitate all the photos in a facebook album when I get back home. G'night guys.
