BREAK!

have to start off with a NEWT photo dump since he has yet to make an appearance on the blog...

















ANYWAY, 4 months of blood, sweat, tears, and cadaver juice later, i can finally say i survived my first semester of medical school! SUPER pumped. also pretty proud of myself for how well i did! exciting news: i scored the highest grade in the class on one of my finals :) - i think that might be a first ever. like including since kindergarten - haha, sad but true!



it is crazy how this time last week i was a ball of stress, and now i'm mellow as can be. i have no earthly idea what to do with this free time and have found myself taking 2 hour naps and going to be ridiculously early! i also started reading the hunger games and have done some baking. this past weekend, i got to celebrate lindsey's wedding with her and also enjoyed a mini-maas reunion with kara, cecilia, megan, and maddie! i also got to run back to galveston for a few days to play with my friends there, and we had the best beach bonfire! so fun! already looking forward to a repeat before school starts


it is definitely strange being back home, and i already miss my galveston life and friends! friday i am jumping a flight to pennsylvania to spend the holidays with my mom and her family, and then i'll be back for new year before heading back to galvy a few days early to party it up with my friends before the next semester
