Today , Ana Yoline and I had dinner with our Professor Tom Gilovich. What a swell guy. We talked about everything from college choices, the class, his family, the quiz tomorrow and why he's at Cornell. We sat down with our plates of pasta, salad ( and for Yoline fruit loops one the side.) To our surprise Professor Gilovich told us that fruit loops are healthier than most all natural products because of the natural junk in some of those foods. Our professor studied in Santa Clara. Close to home! He met his wife there and loves that fact and wouldn't have gone to any other University just for that reason. Cute love story right? We'll we also spoke about recommendation letter. He will grant recommendation letter to those in his class whom get and " A". What an opportunity!!!!! He knows us a little now so that'll be better.Tomorrow there's a quiz so we are studying hard to make our performance stronger!
Goodnight , as we strive for higher education

NO, Hi Wendy!!!
Your post was fantastic. From reading your comments it appears that you listened closely to what Professor Gilovich had to say. In reading your post I was able to visualize myself being right there at the table. It was nice to hear him talk about nutrition.
You were able to also see that he was a regular guy and hopefully when you do go to College you will take the time to meet with other college professors. They love to meet their pupils. So continue to reach out to the educators. They want to help. I also hope that you do well on your quiz. However, remember the staff at the Ivy League Connection is not concerned with grades, we are concerned with effort. You have given us a 100%. Please continue to post on a daily basis because it gives us valuable information that we can share with our sponsors.
I want to also commend you on working as a team with Yolne and Ana. It is good to read that you have come to support each other during this period of time. The team building that you are doing will last a lifetime and the three of you will be friends for decades to come.
This is the real lesson that you will take out of the Psychology class, that relationships matter!!! Yes, relationships do matter and this is how the best rise to the top.
So take care and I look forward to reading more of your posts that give us valuable insight.
Take care.
