The Look of Regret

So we will work backwards...I will try and make this as concise as possible with all that I have to update on. As of this date I have four weeks, yes thats 4 weeks of school left this semester. The next few weeks include: two nutrition quizzes, feed id #6 and #7, exam, marketing exam, weekly paper due, homework #5 due, StockTrak project due, Commodity project due, breeding exam, at least two homeworks, genetics exam, two law papers/projects due. Ag Ambassadors will be playing Broomball with ATA/Young Farmers on April 18th and that day is also the Spring Branding Banquet at the Ranch. I will have Genetics Breeding and Marketing exams on Monday the 12th of May, Tuesday is Nutrition that Saturday I will work at Graduation for Ag Ambassadors and then on the 18th I leave for AUSTRALIA for two and a half weeks! The next three Sundays I will be working, we are synchronizing heifers and cows in preparation to AI and natural service. Monday the 14th I will be traveling to Saratoga, WY to the BIC, Beef Improvement Center, Bull Sale. I have another interview with them at this point and unofficially have the internship. Tuesday the 15th I am able to register for classes for Fall 08. After speaking with my adviser I have 36 credits left to take meaning one year left, a full year ahead of time. But I will mostly likely drag it out to be a year and a half because there are a lot of things I want to do yet including judging. I will update with my schedule once I know for sure I have those classes. I am working tomorrow-Sunday the 13th. This past Tuesday the 8th I traveled to Cheyenne, WY to Warren Livestock with two vets and five senior vet students. This is part of my ASI internship. I was able to vaccinate, palpate, diagnose, draw blood, do minor procedures, etc. It was a great experience and I was definitely glad I skipped school for this opportunity. Sunday the 6th Jane, Kevin, Gerry, Becci and Mike were up here from Denver. We traveled to Cheyenne, ARDEC, drove around campus and FoCo. We also meet up with Mark and Patti two Damschroder out here in FoCo and the Springs. That Saturday I went to Cheyenne to a pig sale with Zach and his family at Baumann Livestock. I got a 97/100 on my Breeding exam that I had little time to study for, set the curve and received the highest grade in the class, I was more than enthusiastic! This is what I would like to go into for graduate school. In the fall I will be switching over to the Sheep Unit at ARDEC. This will be a better experience and working environment for me and I cant wait however I will deeply miss my stud muffin on the "other side!" The 29th was the CSU Calving Ease Plus Bull Sale. We had one of our bulls sell for over 8 grand-Select Sires bought it-Ram Time progeny. Happy Birthday Jessica Hilt! I began my Australia class at 7 am on Wednesday mornings. Spring Break-I worked 10 hour days all week. Then I traveled to Yoder with Zach for Easter. We torched bulls for one of his friends for two days-talk about miserable! I also forgot that I believe it was the 4th I went to the Sundance for the first time. It is a dance hall/saloon/steak house. Basically its where you can find the entire Animal Science/CAS on Tuesday nights. I wasn't going to go but sure glad I ended up there. I had a blast-thanks Mitch:)
As for the title to this blog....one of my old friends was recently in a fairly significant four wheeler accident and is still in serious condition as far as I know. He has a skull fracture, blood on the brain and some other issues. I hope him and his family the best in his recovery. As for the look you will have to ask me in person.
Well I feel that is the jist of it all. Life is crazy busy and I would like for it to somewhat slow down. Hope all is going great with everyone!
