drowning

it is saturday night here in the galv, and i'm spending the night at home. studying. like i have been all day. the test isn't for 2 weeks, but I AM DROWNING. it is amazing how much we have covered in 2 weeks.... ahhhhhh - do you know how many nerves and tiny muscles are in the head/neck?? about a million. believe it or not, med school is NOT as glamorous as you may think...

anyway, to catch-up, last weekend i ran home to houston and went to lindsey's first wedding shower! it was really fun getting to see her and finally help out with the wedding!

this week was busy busy. lots of class and studying. you know, the usual.

we did take a study break thursday night and had a dinner party + carved pumpkins!! let me just tell you, nerds take pumpkin carving seriously. we had a drill attachment specifically for hollowing out the pumpkins, a drimmel for more precise carving, and a probe stolen from anatomy lab. yep - it was pretty awesome.

last night, there was a fancy white coat dinner put on for the 1st years and utmb faculty. everyone got dressy and enjoyed a few hours away from textbooks!


anyway, i've probably wasted enough time now. back to the grind :X -- already counting down until the 21st!!! hurry up, freedom!
