Our new addition!

We've added a new flatmate to Cumberbitch manor! His name is Arthur and we're pet sitting him for a while! I think he's warming up to us, he seems much more comfortable with us than he was when he first arrived, so thats a plus!

2 weeks in

I can't believe its only been 2 weeks, it seems like its been forever! This year is certainly giving us all a run for our money! Its been fun since we are doing a lot of active things, we were in the PM room and our dog had a myxoma! It was the 3rd that the vet had seen in his life, so that was pretty cool! We grew some bacterial cultures, did some drug calculations, just lots of class and really fast lectures, I feel like I barely have time to type up all my lectures before its time for bed. This is going to be a very busy term. But I just booked another chunk of EMS for this summer! Now I just need 6 more, though hopefully more, though I dont where I'll find the time!

The dreaded pharm

We started pharm today and it was bananas, and that was just the intro! Certainly very interesting, but its going to be a complicated class, they;re really just plowing through things! So hopefully that goes well! and heres my room not just pictures of wall, since apparently thats boring :P

Half way done!

Well with the first week, which looks like its going to be the only week where we have a bit of free time, because labs start next week! So far I've had path and parasitology. Parasitology seems like its going to be fun, path sounds interesting but tough, and I'm already feeling behind in pharm and we don't even start it till tomorrow! VPCS is the same as ever (kind of useless but also important simultaneously). It feels like we never left class, except that we're in a terrible lecture theater this whole year, so thats going to be a pain, not even the profs like it. Other than that nothing particularly interesting happening! Also today we went to whole foods (my friend has a car now) and I found ARTICHOKES! They may be available at waitrose eventually, but every time I look for them I can't find them, so I was pretty excited! Below are new additions to my room, fulling hanging and everything!

First day back!

Today was the first day back! We had no micro since our prof torn his achilles, so we have to figure out some bacteriology ourselves, but it doesn't seem too bad. Then we had parasitology, which was really fun, so I think that class will at least be an enjoyable one! Hopefully the rest go as well! Then we went out to dinner to celebrate our first day back. Today I also decorated some more of my room since there is a lot of bare walls in here. It looks a bit more colourful!

Couting Down the Days

It's almost time to start school! After much waiting and confusion we FINALLY got our schedule for the semester today! So that was exciting. My friend was in town the past few days so I showed her around Glasgow and we were going to go to Edinburgh, but she was feeling ill after so much travel, so we ended up just chilling in the flat. I dont think either of us minded as the weather was absolute shite all day, not a bad day to be inside all day. It cleared up enough in the evening for us to go to pub quiz which was really fun. Really we haven't been doing much, just getting ready for school to start, finish putting things away and writing up class schedules. This is our last free weekend so we're trying to make it count!
