The past few weeks have been a royal roller coaster ride. Week before last we had the final in the core class (Fundamentals) for that section of the term. Studying for that final pushed us to the point of needing a cake cooking/decorating therapy session. We entered the kitchenette at 10:00ish (right when it officially closed) with a box of cake mix and two boxes of frosting and didn't get out of there until around 11:30. When we left we had two magnificently decorated chocolate cakes (one for each of us) and at least one belly ache--mine. Honestly, i think there was more frosting on those things than cake.... :-) We then spent the next few days eating only our cakes--lunch and dinner--as we studied. It was a great therapy session and served its purpose, but I now have NO desire to see a cake again for a long while ;-)
The midterm for Pharmacology was last Tuesday, so on Monday we were depressed that we had to study (I didn't have to just study, I had to do some serious cramming) on such a beautiful day--it really was beautiful. We decided to make a compromise and go to the river and study there while we watched everyone else having fun. It really was a great idea...I would never have guessed that watching other people have fun would make up for the fact that I was having to memorize stuff like what Thiazolidinediones is, its actions (yes, multiple actions), and a trade drug associated.
Our next core class (Assessments) began last week at the same time as when we had midterms in our other two classes. Great timing, huh? Oh, and then i decided that wasn't enough to fill my week, so I got sick for half the week! Now, I am doomed to make up the clinical hours that I missed in the evenings after being in class all day. Funness!
Well, that brings us up to date today...with few exceptions ;-)
