Well, i thought i'd be LESS busy this semester, but it turns out i was wrong....not for the first time... I managed to pass my january exams, which is obviously nice for me....
APPARENTLY semester 4 is a doss la la la laaaa. this is not the case, apart from the fact i have hardly ANY time in uni (seminars and dissection and the likes) i seem to have no time spare....
I have been learning to drive, needless to say, evidently from my ripe old age of 22, that i have been putting this off (for approx 5 years...) but it slowly dawned on me one morning in february, that this would be the last chance in a while that i would actually have the time to learn, and, its scary stuff. My instructor is somewhat a saint. i have no idea HOW he doesnt completely freak out every 5 seconds, but its helpful that he doesnt. Ive only nearly killed us both twice, and considering ive been learning for quite a while, thats pretty good!
Been doing some volunteering as well, initially to boost my 'Portfolio' but actually i've been really enjoying it so that'll hopefully continue next year....
SOoooooo, really I am coming to the end of this year already, which to 'normal people' is a joke...and to me it seems like for the price i pay to be on this course i am being severely short-changed.....i have 1 case to finish (meant to be doing that now....) 2 sessions of dissection, a hospital visit, a gp visit and orientation at my hospital for next year, 2 exams and......thats it. what a JOKE.
However, it does mean that i can make maximum use of the summer- im heading to the US with my homegirl hannah, we have 7 weeks to get from San Fran to NYC. HOW EXCITING! and then i have to come home, find somewhere to live, buy some clothes and shoes that i can wear in hospital and join the REAL WORLD.


Maybe i should stop complaining about having so little to do, i think im gonna get a serious reality check.
