heh, got a few things in the mail today. One was my SAT scores, the other a CD ROM full of pictures from my trip to guatemala in march. To start with the CD ROM...
It is actually really cool. The guy who runs the trip collected a bunch of pictures from everyone who went and compiled the good ones on a cd. This made for 550 megs of pure memories :) There are some great shots of me performing surgery, my friend holding an M-16 machine gun, a satellite internet broadcast, et cetera. I am so glad I got to go on that trip because in my opinion it is a once in a lifetime thing to be able to have that kind of experience. Especially now with all this HIPPA stuff going on (as usual) kids can't even go to work with their dad's if they are a doctor. They can't go anywhere where a patients name is visible, anyway, which pretty much covers the entire hospital. Hmm... and my sisters both got to watch surgerys. Anyway, if you are interested, you can see a few pics that I took and compiled, some of which are in the collection i was just sent.
Now on to the SAT scores... I know you are just DYING to know what I got. :) Well, I got a 630 on the verbal and a 650 on the math, for a combined total of 1280. Not too bad, but I think I can do better next time. We shall see. If you know me, I'm sure you know how I feel about grades and test scores, and how they don't represent what people REALLY know or how smart they are. But I actually enjoyed taking the test and I am excited to take it again. I just want to break 1300 at least. But again, we shall see...
