First Week of Classes Almost Over!

This week has been quite busy with lectures and such. Monday, we had all of our introductory lectures and began a couple of Pharmacology lectures. The Pharmacokinetics/Pharmacodynamics lectures were very interesting and got me very excited for the next lectures. We started Pathology as well and I really enjoy those lectures. The Radiologist came in and gave a few lectures on interpreting radiographs and showed many images of radiographs, which were interesting. Almost all of the lectures were quite a breeze for me since most of it I have picked up on my own from working at the clinic. There was also an introduction to small animal surgery, piece of cake! Instruments used, anaesthesia, etc. We are currently working on post mortem lectures, which are very interesting and we get to do our first PM tomorrow! Woohoo! Am very excited and can't wait! There was a two hour tutorial on the clinical examination of the horse today and I found that very helpful. I was rocking out the answers to all of the questions the lecturer had, I patted myself on the back after class... Right now I am working on writing out notes from all of the lectures, printing the lectures and putting them in an organized binder. I am MUCH more organized than last semester, so this will help tremendously when studying. The weather hasn't been the greatest today and has been raining the entire day, boo! Have been loading up on hot tea at night to keep myself warm. May go out tomorrow night for Paddy's (guy in class) birthday. Not sure yet, I don't like spending money that I don't have to. Well, I should get back to studying. Hope all is well in the desert! Send some warm weather my way please!
