So I survived...the PCAT that is, it wasn't as rough as I thought. Don't get me wrong it was a six hour long test and it wasn't easy but I think I did alright. The math was killer. They give you 48 questions to do in 40 minutes. Now these aren't your easy math questions...these are pre-calculus and calculus questions. And each answer is the same but with a different decimal point or different power....not fun!
Thanks for all of you would wished me luck and prayed for me. I really think it helped. Now all I have to do is wait SIX weeks for the results...the story of my pharmacy life!

PCAT
sorry about not posting much lately but my life has been consumed by the PCAT. It's the pharmacy admissions test and I'm taking it on Saturday...T Minus 2 DAYS! I have been living at the library and so I have nothing much to post about but come Saturday at 2pm I'll be the happiest person ever. Pray for me cuz it's a 5 hour test and it determines what pharmacy schools you get into. Wish me luck!

My Amazing and Crazy Aunt
So I was watching the news last night and all of a sudden I saw my aunt on the TV. She's crazy but I love her!!!
Check out what she's up to now

Two men are traveling through Utah this week, crossing the entire country on foot. They're running, not walking, trying to set an all-time speed record; and a Utah woman has joined them for a sizable chunk of their ordeal.
A stretch of U.S. 50, called "The Loneliest Road in America," is a perfect place for ultra-ultra-marathoner Marshall Ulrich. "Right now we're getting some rolling hills. That suits me just well. I like the variation of terrain," he said.
A few miles back is his colleague on the cross-country run, Charlie Engel. "It's certainly a personal quest to see if something like this can even be done, because I'm not sure," he said.
Engel has company the next few days with Utah ultra-marathoner Lorie Hutchison. She said, "I figure if he can run across America, hopefully I can make it across Utah."
Think about it, they're out of bed every day and running about 70 miles, every day. "Yeah, this is a whole ‘nother challenge for me because this is day after day after day of running," Hutchinson said. We asked her why she punishes herself when she could be sitting at home on the couch. Her response: "Yeah, why sit at home is what I say. There's no reason to sit on the couch when you can be outside. I mean, this is beautiful out here."
The Utah section is about 350 miles, stretching from Delta to Spanish Fork to Vernal. It will take five or six days to cross the Utah canyons, deserts and mountains, 45 days to cross the continent.
"On some level it's very painful and there's a lot of suffering that's involved with it, so you just have to block that out," Ulrich said.
It has been done before. The previous runner went 3,000 miles in a little over 46 days. The goal of the two men is to beat that record.
"In those low, low spots you just have to understand that you'll come back," Ulrich said.
The runners are partnered with United Way, raising funds and awareness for youth fitness. As Engel says, "To show them what can be done."
Physical problems have slowed them down, so they're about a day behind schedule. You can follow their progress http://www.runningamerica08.com/

My Dad is THE COOLEST!
So my dad is freaking amazing! Two weeks ago he and Randy Steinfield (Shambray's dad) took on a 206 mile bike ride. My dad finished 21st in his age group and just under 11 1/2 hours! He would have finished faster but the last 4 miles my dad got really sick and it slowed him down quite a bit. Well, I've been really bad about picture taken lately so again I don't have any pictures but I'll be sure to get some and dedicate a post to my superman father.
Here's a look at the elevation climbs they made....madness!
He totally inspired me and I think I might want to do it with him next year. 11 hours on a bike, climbing up and down mountains, eating a liquid diet...no big deal right? Well dad...your amazing!
