Time for yet another move

Just in case no one besides me is keeping track, this is my 22 move since I graduated high school 6 years ago. That is not joke, I can prove it if you don't believe me. Anyway, this is a great move we are going from a small 2 bed/1bath in Rexburg to a nice 3 bed/2 bath place across from a Winco (the idaho version of Costco)(aka...really cheap groceries) in Idaho Falls. So we have spent the last few days packing and everything to get ready for that.

Apart from that, not much has happened except, as mom and dad already know, I have an interview at the University of Florida College of Dentistry in Gainsville, FL on August 28. That is exciting.
One thing I have really learned lately is that it is EXPENSIVE to get into dental school, let alone dental school itself. Here is what I mean:

  • AADSAS Application (standard application sent to most schools) = $400
  • TMDSAS Application (standard application sent to the texas schools) = $100
  • Application to take DAT = $220
  • Materials to study for the DAT = $200
  • Secondary application at each school = about $40 each = 40*4 = $160
  • Plane Tickets to get to the interview = about $500 each
  • Gas to drive to Pocatello to take the DAT = $60
Therefore with me just having one interview so far the total money I have spent on just trying to get into dental school (this does not mean I got into dental school it is just the application) is $1640
yeah it is nuts... anyway...

guess what... a few weeks ago we decided to make a cheescake from scratch. It turned out amazing. It was a 3 layer cake. The bottom crust was gramcracker, the bottom layer was chocolate cheescake, the next layer way White chocolate cheescake, and the top layer was strawberry cheescake. It was then toped with a hard shell of chocolate with white chocolate swirl. We then made from the left over strawberries a glaze that we put on top.... IT WAS AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!
(here is a picture... minus the glaze)


And just for the fun of it here is a picture of our cute dog, I can't wait to get a picture of our baby on here.
