Muahahaha I have the vet students for the first half of the day today and therefore get to subject them to whatever I want.
Still jealous that you guys get to see each other occasionally. The day will come when I will crash the party.
Me too. Can we do this in Minneapolis?
Maryland >>>>> Minneapolis
Iveccs is on DC this yearI'm still hoping to find a conference or something that gives me the excuse to be in the vicinity of @that redhead .
Okay, okay, you ALL are invited to MD to hang out with me and the fantastic @cowgirla. I have three extra bedrooms, just no mattresses/beds yet...minor details.
@LetItSnow, I thought you were on vacation anyway. I don't see what's holding you back!

if its further out, I can probably make it, tooI was thinking, yanno, a little more out in the future? I'm on vacation, but I'm doing a reservation deal with vet students this weekend. (Cause nothing says vacation like doing veterinary things while you're on it.)
Hey guys! I have a couple question for you about clinics. I have 9 weeks of free time spread out over my 1.5 years of clinics to do with as I please. At this point I have pretty much everything that is Mandatory for the school planned. So I guess What I am wondering is how much "vacation time" did you have and do you think it would be better to leave a week here and there to have a break from clinics? Also, did you set aside time specifically to study for the NAVLE or did you just study as you went along? I tend to be the kind of person that wants to fill up all my free time with more stuff.. But I dont want to regret it down the road. Also - 4 of these weeks are October of 4th year just in case I decide to do an internship so that I can travel and spend a couple days at different hospitals (not sure if thats what I want to do or not but I have the time set aside just in case.)
Any advice is welcome! Thanks!

I left a good 4 weeks of mine open in the spring (not scheduled until very close to the date) so that I could schedule multiple days of working interviews for jobs if I needed to. If I didn't have anything planned I either took a vacay or scheduled an ER or internal med rotation last minute.
Ah you brought up a great point. For those of you that went into private practice how soon did you start applying for jobs / going to interviews etc. I should definitely plan for that!

you're not the only one with a program that is changing...i understand how frustrating that feels!My internship is changing and I'm not super happy. One of the residents changed his focus from production med to medicine, which is fine, but since we only have one acvim diplomate on at any given time, and they are on in house, and our attempts to hire someone have been futile, I am being shoved off in house and onto field service and regulatory (read: every group of students learns about the production of beef cattle, dairy cows, swine, visits a slaughter plant, goes to Jeff City to learn about lawmaking, etc). So... I am happy to be on those services, working with students and stuff, but I personally learn so much more on in house... grumble grumble
That will be me one dayBetter than my intern-mate, who got "the twelve-year-old" (from a client, no less).
Titles I've gotten at my clinic:
- The one who does nerve blocks
- The one who deals with behavior problems
- The abscess queen
- The 'young blonde one' (A client called me this. I'm not blonde...)

So I'm "the one who will see exotics"...my receptions played a prank on me the other day where they asked, "So would you be comfortable euthanizing a tarantula?" I'm sure I looked horrified because I am pretty afraid of spiders but also didn't want something to be suffering for want of someone brave enough to euthanize. They let me off the hook a little later
And yeah, people call me 12 (literally) pretty regularly, which I continue to find exasperatingly rude. My coworkers are planning to make me a "Child Prodigy" shirt...
Man. What I wouldn't give to look 12.
That moment when you ask the owner of the tremoring, hypersalivating cat if they've recently used any flea treatments and they look at you like you're a wizard mind reader.
My favorite Cards Against Humanity card...A motherf'ing sorcerer!
There's an online version of the game you can play with peoples over the interwebs. Who'd be interested?
Raises hand like ultimate teacher's petThere's an online version of the game you can play with peoples over the interwebs. Who'd be interested?
I'd play tomorrow depending on the time.
Evil apples the app or actual online version? I'd likely play depending on the timing.
I should probably clarify... who'd be interested to play sometime tonight or tomorrow?
Let's say 4PM central time tomorrow? Or would later be better for people?
