End of the first block...

So I know I haven't posted anything on here in a long time, whatever, I doubt anyone reads it anyway. So big summary, I spend a lot of time (90% of waking hours) studying with minimal results. However, I did pass my first block of exams. A block is like a semester within a semester. It's the first 4 exams of our med school class.

There are some pretty awesome people in my class, I've become acquainted with quite a few of them, but not quite all, there are a lot. We've pretty much covered everything in the upper body that is not the head or neck in anatomy and then a lot of biochemistry that sucks, lots of tissues in histology and even a little pharmacology there at the end... It was hard and I did excel at much but I enjoyed the material a lot (except biochemistry, it stalks me in my sleep).

We also do other classes like how to be a professional, how to be ethical, and a practice clinical skills class. Those are enjoyable. In the professional class, we were asked if we blogged, I raised my hand, hesitantly, I don't know if 2 times in 6 months really counts. ;) Anyway, she was basically just doing her best to make sure we weren't breaking any rules or anything with our blogs, I wanted to tell her, you're welcome to read mine... it's SUPER boring though, just to give you a heads up. So yeah, there's that...

I'm getting ready for my test on Friday and hoping to do better on this block. Fingers crossed and prayers welcome. :)

You people who DO actually read this should leave comments... I don't even care what they are. Ask me questions, tell me something about you...

anyway, here are some pictures I've taken since I've posted last...By the way, I'm LOVING the cool weather, thanks Fall!! Oh, and it was my birthday a few weeks ago, 24 whoop-whoop!
