Great relaxing weekend, now new lectures this week and then OSLO!!!

Well, the weekend has come and gone and seems like it did not last very long at all. Was a nice relaxing weekend but rainy and cold. Saturday I woke up and it was raining and continued throughout the day. The sun is actually beginning to stay out a bit longer (4.30ish), which is nice. I can't wait for when the sun is out until 10pm. I feel so much more awake when the sun is out longer. Had Kristen over for a nice gourmet chinese meal. I found a Chinese cookbook for 5 pounds at Blackwells (book store). I made Beef and Broccoli stir fry for the main and then made Sticky Rice with Mangos for dessert. Both of which turned out excellent! I actually had left-overs for tonight's dinner. Gotta love cooking large meals (left-overs for the remainder of the week!). Went to ASDA (Wal-Mart) and picked out a new set of bedding, which is very nice and was on sale (gotta love sales). I also picked out a new robe to lounge around in.

Started new material this week. Cardiopulmonary stuff started today and it was very interesting. I remember learning this material in Animal Physiology in my undergrad, so it has helped a bit (at least what I could remember). Usually, it was learnt for the exam and then leaked out of my head somehow to make room for the newer material. Well, I am currently working on Neurology and am almost finished putting together my study material for the exam at Easter. I am trying to get ahead this time and will also start on the paper that is due in March. Just want to have everything done so I don't have to worry about it. Well, I must get back to studying. Hope everyone is doing well!

Oh, and good news too. Brownie has been doing much better according to my mum. Nose is improving and tears are beginning to flow back in the nasolacrimal duct (woohoo!). Seems like he had a bit of an infection going on, so thanks for starting him on Simplicef Brian! Not sure if you will read this, but if not, someone tell him I said thank you!

Hello! Happy to hear you had a relaxing weekend, and sharpening up your culinary skills. Isn't it great you have a big flat to live in where you can cook, dine, and lounge.
You do live a charmed life! All you need is Brownie by your side:)
He will take his last Simplicef today, and he is showing signs of much improvement. I bet you are getting excited to travel to Norway on your ski trip. How many are going?
Hopefully we can chat on Skype before I go to work today:)
Love,
Mum

Hey!

Brian has been informed that he fixed your dog, and said you're welcome.

Countdown to Norway....How far away is that, anyways?

Talk to you later!
