The dinner for the students going to Columbia was held at La Folie in San Francisco. The food there was delicious - they had an awesome steak. This was the first time I had dinner at a restaurant where they had a 5 course meal which cost over $100. It tasted so amazing.

As for a status on how I'm feeling about going to Columbia, I'm feeling much better about it. I'm getting along really well with the others who are going there, and I'm looking forward to hanging out in New York. I'll still miss not being able to take an ATDP class, or being able to TA for TIC, however, I guess this is an opportunity and experience that I shouldn't miss out on.
