I was seated dead center but all the way in the last row of the floor. I wish I had just paid double price and bought tickets from a website for closer seats, because it would have been worth it. Alas, I cheaped out and paid $200 for the best seat ticketmaster could get me. The show was great, Celine hit every note perfectly, but it was a little on the short side—only 1hr 15min. Oh well, at least I got a chance to see my favorite singer live!

How I did it: I *finally* made it out to Monterey Bay with two girlfriends for an early morning whale watching trip. It was fantastic - we saw a blue whale, 2 humpbacks, a family of at least 7 dolphins, seals, sea otters, jellyfish, and more! All of this in less than 3 hours and with very thick fog. It made me appreciate the natural wonder of our oceans so much more. I can't wait to do it again. Read how I did it…
My last final is tomorrow at 10:30AM. After that I am officially finished with my studies at UC Davis forever…
After studying for the whole summer (even when I was on vacation in Mexico with the family!!), I managed to pull a 165. It is a very very difficult test, but with enough studying I believe anyone is capable of scoring in the 170+ range. I personally took the Testmasters prep class and it was a great help. Don’t get discouraged if your first score isn’t high (mine wasn’t), just keep studying and you will eventually get the hang of the problems. It’s just another hoop to jump through to achieve your dream :-) ...
