When I came to Cornell my freshmen year, I was undeclared major wise but doing the pre-vet requirement classes.  This basically is the same as pre-med requirements - intro bio, chem, etc.  They were rigorous classes, but I would say in hindsight they were ... http://blogs.cornell.edu/caroline/2008/05/23/freshmen-year-in-a-very-quick-academic-review/ I know I promised a stroll down memory lane and of course I'll give that to you shortly.  But first I just wanted to give you a little flavor of Senior Week here at Cornell.  Senior Week is the week after finals but before graduation, when most of the undergrads ... http://blogs.cornell.edu/caroline/2008/05/22/a-brief-interruption/ Well, the comment on my last entry could not have come at a better time...as my time winds down here at Cornell (so cryptic) I think it's about time to start going back down memory lane, and particularly back down the path that has brought me to where I'll be ... http://blogs.cornell.edu/caroline/2008/05/13/sneak-preview/ As a senior at Cornell in May, there are a LOT of LASTS.  Some are silly, some are obviously not LASTS but more "lasts for the next couple of years" and some are actually bittersweet, veritable lasts.

And yet, this was one ... http://blogs.cornell.edu/caroline/2008/04/04/i-give-the-people-what-they-want/ So instead of doing what I should be doing (studying for my Psych prelim tomorrow) I will instead tell you all about what I can't wait to do once it's over tomorrow at 9 PM.
