What happened to the attitude? Well, you broke all the rules.

Sushi @ Geisha tonight:

David: So, are you and your sister pretty similar?
Nicole: Yeah, pretty much but my sister is a real perfectionist. If you don't do things the way she likes, she gets upset.
David: [Real casual] Well, that's like you.
Nicole: NO! [emphatically] Well, yeah, I guess so. In fact, I am about to kick two girls out of my project group because they aren't doing any work. The people at the City will probably keel over when they see my work style.

Waiting for a leader

I made the difficult decision of deferring my enrollment at LLU. The quarter to which I applied begins January 2nd and I could not do all the things necessary to fully prepare by that date. For one, I am still taking physiology which I spend hours a day working on. The semester ends the first week of December and I promised Paige I would come visit for a week in December. I spend so much time concentrating on the task at hand that I cannot fully plan what comes next. So, I begin a full-time position at the City (in something I have no experience so, it should be fun!) starting the end of December. I plan to enter LLU in September of next year.

The Toastmasters conference happened here last weekend. Dana called me with 45 minutes notice to speak at the conference in front of 120. I love that! It's such a great feeling to perform.

Other than all that, I have a huge test on Tuesday on immunology, cardiology, respiration, and digestion. Yikes!
