Well, I have been studying nonstop this entire week and still have 5 more days off before exams begin. I finished studying the GI tract and urogenital system last night, which was very easy. The university opened up the dissection lab today and will tomorrow as well so students can practice anatomy prior to the examination. I went for a few hours today and it helped quite a bit. I studied everything last night from the book and was able to locate everything in lab today. A lot of people were complaining that there were no labels on any of the specimens. I just told them that they should be able to identify things by now without labels and reference to the book. However, there are students who just now started studying this week. That's crazy! I have been studying for the past 5 weeks doing anatomy, etc. Wednesday is the official anatomy exam that takes place in the dissection room, Thursday is the written exam and Friday is the oral examination where a professor asks you questions regarding a certain part of the specimen in the dissection lab. I am hoping I do well, this embryology and cell biology stuff is stressing me out. I never thought we would have to go over cell biology again, at least not for a while. Oh well, I guess some things just continue to come back and haunt us every now and then.
I am also very excited. After the exams are over, I will be joining a fencing club. On the 28th, there is an evening meeting at some gym. Weapon kits and uniforms are provided and I will be learning the basics on fencing. I am very excited! I'm sure I will have some good stories to go along with this new activity of mine. Hope everyone is doing well! Back to the anatomy book I go! Cheers!

Fencing??? You have GOT to take pictures! That's totally cool. We had a fencing club in high school - I learned about it when I saw their picture in the yearbook; there were 3 people in it. I have a feeling you'll have a better turnout in Edinburgh than they did in Tuba. :)
I think the night before your exams you should go out and eat a burger (or whatever - haggis, maybe) then go to bed early. You've put in plenty of study time already!
Talk to you later ~
I didn't know you were doing fencing!!! How cool! Send me some pics, you haven't sent me any in a while from there! Have fun! I'm starting my detox this week and going to do my cardio during lunch, I think. Hopefully it won't be raining. If so, I'll just have to go to the mall and walk around LOL. Darn!
Love you!
