Got back today from an amazing weekend up north. Cousin had a wedding, then spent the rest of yesterday and today with the boyfriend and family watching football. On the other hand, I got absolutely nothing done. Nothing. Nada. Zip. Glad I'm working tonight, because I have a stack of papers nearly an inch thick of coursework to catch up on. -sigh-

Just found out I was accepted for a lab animal externship over winter break this year 😀

 

[orca2011]

Might be going to Denmark/Europe for 10-14 days during winter break. I was planning on working before starting rotations, but can't really pass up a trip back to Europe.

Tofu packages at the local grocery were 2/$1. Two for a dollar!! That's amazing. I bought six...

I'm alive!!!! (see rant thread for deets)

 

[cowgirla]

Today I was caught in a stampede,....Of multiple <5 day old calves. I love my job and the cuteness it brings.

Yeeee finally got to go underwater with the scuba gear today! At first I was a little paranoid and took a million breathes a minute but after getting the hang of it it was pretty darn cool. But I'll stick with the pool for now 😉

 

[Shepherd Lover]

My first scientific paper was accepted today to be published! 😀

AH! I finished my second pool session this past weekend, next we move to the open water and I'm so scared! I won't be able to just stand up anymore if I don't know what's going on or if I start freaking out haha

just remember depth is only a number!

just remember depth is only a number!

Actually, I had a lot of problems moving from the pool to open water--couldn't equalize past a certain depth (deeper than the pool, obviously).

 

[cowgirla]

patio furniture for 65% off. and it's the exact same as the set I saw months ago and decided was too pricy. Hooray end of season clearance + awesome coupons!

Man we won't be able to go the deep blue till our final in December (good thing our water is warm year round!) I totally freaked out at first when I first started practicing my mask clear but finally got the hang of it after 10 attempts haha

well yes, clearly there are physiologic differences, but a lot of new divers get really hung up on the number, and tend to mentally psych themselves out because of that fixation.

I had trouble with that too haha, I kept getting water up my nose!

Crushed my Anatomy practical!

 

[Filly Bay]

Did some actual horse-back riding last night for the first time in a few years....wowza am I sore today! But it was totally worth it. I love my family's standardbreds, but sitting behind them is just not the same as being up top 🙂

 

[orca2011]

My spay dog got adopted!

 

[Frozenshades]

My sister got married today! 😱

It was a great wedding and they're a perfect match

 

[psilovethomas]

I can finally start running again. Today will be my first time in a few weeks. Excited to be able to blow off some much built up steam.

My spay dog got adopted!

We would post the adoption updates on our class FB page. It's so great to see your patients get homes 🙂

 

[Trilt]

I was certified for fire dancing in my city on Saturday... I don't want to study for my two exams this week, I just want to light up my poi and spin!! It was pretty awesome.

 

[NStarz]

Kicking butt this semester so far

 

[brightimpressio]

I had a great time at my undergrad's homecoming!!! It was the least stressed out I've been at that school in my 5 homecomings there 😉

 

[primatevetjess]

I was certified for fire dancing in my city on Saturday... I don't want to study for my two exams this week, I just want to light up my poi and spin fire!! It was pretty awesome.

I miss spinning fire, I was in the fire enclave at Burning Man one year. But I spin staff 🙂

 

[equineconstant]

Might have gotten an awesome donation for our Josh Project fundraiser! Even if I didn't, I'm really proud of myself for asking in the first place.

 

[thatsallfolks97]

Survived my first vet school exam today!! I didn't die and I actually did really well on that physiology test. I'm proud of myself.

 

[NStarz]

Got half of my clinic schedule released!!! I LOVE IT!!!! I couldn't haven't designed it better, seriously. SQUEE!!!!

 

[cowgirla]

12 more hours on call. and then I am FREE until Monday afternoon. I am so ready for a long weekend.

 

[Lupin21]

Nothing like keeping grades where they are expected of you to be and then making progress on an experiment followed by NOT being the last person on the block to mow the lawn and having a beer as a reward.

 

[Trilt]

With my weigh-in this morning, I've now lost just over 75lbs since the second semester of vet school! It's been slow going this year, but that's officially 3/4 of the way to my 100lb goal.

Pharmacology exam is over, fall break starts after classes tomorrow, and tonight I'm going to attempt to make a vanilla Coke cake and play games with my friends. 😀

 

[dirtanddog]

For the first time ever, my dog did not find some disgusting crap to roll in after his bath! Yay!

 

[Cyndia]

Got a new computer finally!! 🙂 It was a gift from my parents, I'm so lucky. My last one was really on it's last legs, it's going to take a little while to get used to the fact that I don't hear a loud fan every time I use my laptop.

 

[jhsieh9645]

- getting vet school application submitted and now waiting game starts.
- have a husband being supportive.
- have good friends being supportive while I bombarded them GRE words so I can remember...

 

[LyraGardenia]

We had an actual slow-ish day at work today for the first time in a few weeks. And Friday I have a rare day off to go to a wedding! I also had a client hug me today for the first time, although sadly it was because we euthanized her guinea pig.

 

[Conflagration]

I finally heard back from a small zoo I wanted to volunteer for!

I get to help them out with an event this Saturday. 😍

You know, I was really worrying that they wouldn't contact me back. I've kept telling them I was available for events and they just never got back to me until this morning.

 

[dovelover]

Our 10-noon class got cancelled. I am now sitting at home, cuddling my cats, watching netflix. I should be tackling the massive number of emails I have to send, especially since I now have to find 7 public health lecturers for savma symposium instead of 3 and only have about a month left to get it done. But somehow, I really don't care right now.

 

[LyraGardenia]

So I'm being Sailor Moon for Halloween this year (my boyfriend agreed to be Tuxedo Mask even though he'd never seen the show until last week 😀), and the wig I ordered off ebay just arrived! It's SO COOL!

Made delicious pumpking scones and now my apartment smells like fall spices. 😀

 

[katryn]

Enjoying maternity leave, snuggled on the couch watching Robin Hood Men in Tights on a rainy day. All I need now is an extra me to make me hot chocolate so I don't have to get up.

 

[WildZoo]

Season 10 of Supernatural starts TONIGHT! 😀

[orcagirl]

Scheduled two externships and working on a third. Also have an amazing fall break planned. Two days with my bestie and then a week of learning all about companion exotic mammals.

 

[that redhead]

I won a really sweet award last night, I had a good day on clinics yesterday and got to work with some exotics and wildlife today 🙂
