Pictures of fruit

Woke up this morning and jetted off to work. Since I went to bed late Friday night after girls night out and then woke up early for the eternity long review session, and went to bed late again on Saturday night from the comedy show and woke up early for the morning tea, I was very tired today. I woke up and did not want to get up out of bed. I also had no motivation to do a workout. I went to work at took pictures of fruit for 5.5 hours. I was excited at first, because it was something other than data entry. But after a while it became a little mundane. We would place fruit on a plate, take a picture, and then take 4 measurements from the camera to various parts around the plate. We would take 5 pictures of the same piece of fruit at various heights to alter the measurements. It wasn't taking picture that was the hard part, it was measuring the same thing over and over again.

After work I went to the food microbiology review session that every one gave me evil looks for last week. Well, most of the class showed up so it couldn't have been too bad of an idea. I found it somewhat helpful. We also got out tests back from Friday. I got a 7/10. There was only one other person who got a score that high. So I was REALLY excited!!!

Then I came home and piddled around for an hour and a half until I was motivated to finish my 2,000 essay that is due tomorrow at noon. All I have left to do is list my references. YAY!!! Then I will get to start on my 2 essays that are due on Friday. Well, they are much shorter and shouldn't take very long to write.

That is about it. I know not much exciting.

Oh yeah, there is something I have been meaning to blog about for a while now. I discovered something about 2 weeks ago and I just kept forgetting to blog about it.

First, I need to write a short background story. When I was about 2-3 years old. Mom and dad would ask what I wanted to eat for breakfast. EVERY single day I would say "Baked Beans!" To defend myself a little bit, dad would make baked beans by adding in brown sugar to make them really sweet, no different than any kids cereal in my opinion. This has always been a funny story to tell everyone, especially the boys I would date.

Anyway, I was entering data from forms where people would take pictures of the foods they ate. A common breakfast dish is toast with baked beans on top and a fried egg on top of that. So apparently, I was destined to go to Australia because I eat their traditional dishes without even knowing it :)
