A new experience
we had a bit of an ice storm last night. It's not like the ones you see on TV on the east coast where there are chunks of ice hanging off of everything. the streets are (were) bad, though, and i did use my four wheel drive to get to school today. schools were closed. not medical school, though. i have to say i am glad. we go trough too much stuff in one day to have an enexpected day off. i can't imagine trying to make up a day. 8 hours of lecture is more than any of us could deal with on a good day.
i am currently printing up lecture slides from the lecture today, and for the three other sets of lectures by the same prof. my color ink is going to be shot! i hate it when i get to class and discover that the notes that they give us aren't good enough. i have a sheet of paper, the one with the lecture outline on it that was given to us in a packet, that is full of stuff. i have to go through and organize it before i can even hope to learn it. uug. on top of it, the projector went out today in class, so there were no slides projected. the professor was reduced to using good old fashioned chalk on a chalk board. i was glad that i was sitting in the front.
we got new problem based learning groups today. there are nine or ten to a group. i know most of the people in my group, but it will be nice to get a few more names set in stone. i think i recognise all the faces in the class. this PBL group for me is somewhat of a reunion with my anatomy dissection group. three of the four of us who are still in medical school are in this group. (we lost the other girl from our group - she is no longer in school.)
i worked out today for the first time in two+ weeks. it was terrible. i did everything i wanted to do but it wasn't graceful and it kicked my butt. at least i can stil run a little bit. it will get better and easier quickly i suspect. i didn't happen to gain any weight over break. i think it's because i lost muscle and gained fat. hahaha.
That's all for now.
