3rd Semester

Kitts and her buddy Zante 
Both are brindle rescues that hard a start to life but are now "Living the Life"

Well, my 3^rd semester of vet school is on its way but sadly to me it is very boring.  I know for certain that I don’t want to be a bacteriologist, pathologist, or virologist which is what 3 of my 4 classes are about. My 4^th class is pharmacology which I will like but we are just doing basic mechanisms now, not specific drugs.  All 4 classes seem to be straight memorization so this will be interesting.   I would much rather be table to talk my way into the answer rather than regurgitating random facts.  We shall see how it goes.

Really should be studying right now as I have 2 tests next week (pathology on Monday and bacteriology on Thursday).  I will let you know how that goes.

I have been tutoring a lot this semester for Physio 2.  I really enjoy doing it and meeting people in other semesters.  I wish I had more time to dedicate to it but sadly there are not enough hours in the day. 

My computer has REALLY been acting up and I have no idea what is wrong with it.  I am thinking I might buy a MAC when I go back home this break but this computer isn’t even 2 years old.  My last dell lasted almost 5 years with no problems, this one isn’t even 2 years old yet…ugh.  I am hoping to save up enough money from tutoring to be able to buy one but we will see.

Besides school not much has been going on.  The weather has been really crappy down here and rained almost every day.  I have gone to the beach once thus far and only for 2 hours because it started to downpour. 

Kitts is doing great and I love her so much.  She has really adapted to the “house life” instead of “street life.”  She is one of the laziest dogs I know and will sleep on the bed 24 hours a day if you let her.  We have been practicing agility with her and she really seems to like it.  She is going to be the first AKC titles cocoanut retriever when I get back to the states.  We have also taught her sit, down, come, shake (with both paws), and spin.  I am trying to add a new trick each week.  Her car rides are getting better (she use to vomit the minute we started) but now she just drools a little bit.  I am sure with time she will get better.  She does go in for her spay this Wednesday so keep good thoughts for her (I am sure everything will be fine). 

But that is all to report.  Will let you know how the tests go.
