So. My school just sent out registration info and whatnot. I'm having one of those WhatDidIGetMyselfInto moments.

lol I was thrilled when I got all my registration information. It makes it all seem all the more real that my dreams are coming true!🙂

I totally remember that... I think most people go through periods of being unsure if it's the right path, if they can handle it... it usually works out ok though.

Last week already, I woke up from a nightmare that I got the lowest grade in the class on the first test. And when I think about the fact that I am going to be starting vet school in the fall, about half the time I feel like throwing up and the other half the time I feel like jumping for joy...Glad I'm not the only one who feels insane right now.
We can do it!!😀

I totally remember that. For me, it was most profound when signing off for my loan amounts for the year.

loans, foreign diseases, 2 suitcases, new computers, rabies vaccinations, passport, customs/taxes, supplies, new place, new everything!
just think, last year it was applications, supplementals, LORs, GREs, and $$$ haha seems infinitely easier in hindsight!

I still have those moments. Especially when I see my loan amount. And those moments when I truly, truly HATE school. Those moments come at 3am when I'm studying cow diarrhea.
But today (on my first rotation) I got to suture up a hawk's wing, close a wound on a beaver, x-ray a frog, watch a rabbit get radiation therapy, and introduce myself to a client as senior student. A real client, who told me "thank you for looking after my animal."
That made it better 🙂
(I'm on the exotic animal rotation if you can't tell) 😉

I just started looking through the book that I got for the summer anatomy class that NCSU offers. As I was looking through, I'm going "OMG, do I have to know all of this?" and then realizing that the actually anatomy class this fall will be far more in depth....
I just keep telling myself what the anatomy professor told me at our class's welcoming party: "We picked all of you because we know that you can handle the courseload."
