Day 81
Today was my last day with Dani. We hid a little gift for her outside in the tires. I think she was really suprised. I hate that this is over. I will miss Dani and my group so much. Why can't we have another month?
Day 80
Today was a really busy day for me. On top of my workout, I started taking finals tonight. I think I did well but I guess I won't find out until Monday. I'm going to bed. Hopefully tomorrow is less stressful.

Day 79
I am really going to miss my morning group. I hope we will still be close after this contest is over. We plan on continuing to work out together. I really, really hope this happens. My guys are such good guys.

Day 78
The skittle cravings are back. I thought they went away but maybe I was wrong. I;m glad I don't spend a lot of time in places that you can buy skittles. I tried to find out what skittles are made of except pure sugar and I was a little supprised. Have you ever heard of shellac?
Shellac is a resin secreted by the female lac bug, on trees in the forests of India and Thailand. It is processed and sold as dry flakes, which are dissolved in denatured alcohol to make liquid shellac, which is used as a brush-on colorant, food glaze and wood finish. Shellac functions as a tough all-natural primer, sanding sealant, tannin-blocker, odor-blocker, stain, and high-gloss varnish. Shellac was once used in electrical applications as it possesses good insulation qualities and it seals out moisture. Shellac is often the only historically-appropriate finish for early 20th-century hardwood floors, and wooden wall and ceiling paneling.
From the time it replaced oil and wax finishes in the 1800s, shellac was the dominant wood finish in the western world until it was replaced by nitrocellulose lacquer in the 1920s and 1930s. It remained popular in the Southern United States through the 1950s and 1960s. It continues to be a popular candy glaze for pill shaped sweets such as Skittles. (From Wikipedia)
I don't think I want skittles anymore.
