Yay! Eric made me stand there while he read it. Then he gave me a hug. Then he congratulated me and told Margery Coombs “hey, guess what? Mai got into vet school. AGAIN.”
Heehee! I did!

Gave them to everyone but Eric, who wasn’t in his office today.
The worst was Bruce. I gave it to his secretary right before class, and she gave it to him as I walked away down the hall, but then he didn’t say anything about it in class or after class and of course he didn’t smile because HE NEVER SMILES.
Kara was pretty bad. I ran in, put it in front of her on her desk, and then ran out again, except she brought her dog Lucy today and I TRIPPED over LUCY. It was even MORE EMBARRASSING THAN I THOUGHT IT WOULD BE. And the I was like, “I don’t have time to be embarrassed! I have to go to class!” And I left.
Dr. O’Connor was really nice about it. And then he told me he just cleared me for graduation today.
And then I dropped Dr. Rosseel’s off at the clinic, but he’s not in on Thursdays, so I got to talk to Jen who is cool. And I got to see the office cat, Mac, who is AWESOME but he’s obviously getting old. Which is sad.
Tomorrow, I will give Eric his card and chocolate.

okay, so I got a little obsessive about this and finished it tonight instead of studying for the ornithology quiz. OH SURE, BLAME ME. Those Godiva chocolates better be REALLY FREAKING GOOD. $3.25 for a microscopic box with two truffles. PHAH!

bought them. Little tiny boxes of godiva with two truffles in each, and little blank cards with kitten photos that come with little envelopes.
Today Kara sent me a speedy reply to my thesis outline with good suggestions and lots of encouragement. Which reinforces my happiness at having gotten five thank-you-thingies instead of three!

To the following people…
Bruce; Dr. O’Connor; Dr. Rosseel; Eric; Kara.
With modest little boxes of chocolate.
True Eric and Kara didn’t write me recommendations, but they’ve done everything short of hacking into the computer system and putting my name on the admitted list, and as long as I’m buying three boxes of chocolate and thank you cards, why not make it five?
Of course, three of these people are still responsible for grading me this semester, which makes giving them boxes of chocolate really awkward and uncomfortable. If only I were one of those people who have those things, ‘social skills’.
