Now what?

Well, the last three weeks have been pretty exciting with the awards dinner, graduation, and yesterday my birthday. It was a great three weeks that's for sure.

Yesterday, for my birthday, Danielle took me out for dinner after work. I was pretty tired after a ten hour shift at the pharmacy but I got a second wind once we got out of the house. The original plan was to have burgers at Bilby's but they already had the chairs up by the time we got there. The next best food option was Flipside but again - closed! Finally we ended up in Fremantle where we ate fish and chips at Cicerello's. They've got an amazing salt water tank in the restaurant so I'm always check that out. We actually ate dinner on Danielle's 25th birthday at Cicerello's too - probably because they are the only place open past 6:00PM. After dinner we went to see "District 9" at the theater. Strange movie but interesting no doubt.

Now I'm focusing on wedding plans since Danielle is really busy with school I'm trying to do as much as possible. All of the essential parts are sorted out except for the rings.

Graduation & Awards Night


Tomorrow I'll be walking across the stage Winthrop Hall. I"m working until 4:00 and then collecting my academic dress.

Last week Danielle and I went to the annual pharmacy awards dinner. Much to my surprise I won an award. The award was for excellence in pharmacy practice throughout the entire two years. Amazing! The best thing is that it wasn't awarded based on marks but rather the professors chose me as the top student. Sure feels good to be recognized.
