Ugh. What a crazy day! I prepared three MPH applications for mailing, and I was -- get this -- hypnotized for a documentary by the BBC! Very exciting.

While I'm at it, I should be a good liberal and promote my early pick for 2004 -- John Kerry.

There is no good way to introduce this animation. Have you ever wondered what a Kikkoman Soy Sauce Superhero would be like? If so, check it out. And turn on your speakers; the soundtrack is incredible.

I woke up today and took the GRE. Did pretty well. Hopefully it will help me get into a masters program in public health!

Had my second cooking class tonight. This one was on Sauces. Yummmmm.

And President Bush is currently experiencing his lowest public opinion ratings in 16 months. Yay! In an odd, yet surprigingly familiar way, Bush also declared January to be "National Sanctity of Human Life Day." Thoughts, anyone?

God Bless America. And the two DJs in Miami who called Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez and convinced him they were Fidel Castro. I have an odd respect for anyone who risks their job by making prank calls to heads of state.

Let's see...what's new?

Happy New Year!

New Year's Resolutions:
1. Stop biting my fingernails (7th year in a row that this has been on the list).
2. Do a better job of staying in touch with friends.
3. Get to work earlier.
4. Continue/reinforce my *new* habit of being on time.
5. Get into grad school. (Ha! As if a resolution like this will suddenly change my luck!)
5a. Do well on the GRE.
6. Cook. A lot. Get good at it. (I signed up for a 12-class series of cooking classes yesterday!)
