I'm excited to say I got an A on both Gross Anatomy lab and lecture test! It quite possibly could be my greatest accomplishment of the semester, and finally brought my grade up to an A in the class overall. It's a nice feeling - especially knowing our next test in the class is the final :) Now that we're done with a majority of structures and systems in lab, we've moved on to just the head and the spinal column. While the head is a small part of the body, it's one of the most complicated parts. We've been working on muscles and nerves of the face and the eye this past week. The week after Thanksgiving we have two "Live Dog" quizzes. Students get to bring in their dogs, and we will practice palpating the dogs to identify organs and structures we've dissected in lab.

Physiology is the test this Friday :( We've been learning about different types of channels involved in action potentials of the nervous system. It's about as exciting as it sounds. I tend to go back and forth between Physiology and Microanatomy over which is my least favorite class - this week, it's Physiology. Luckily, studying hasn't been so bad (yet).
Outside of school, it's been a busy few weeks/weekends. Cole and I went to Kappa's "America" themed date party. Naturally we went as "spirited Republicans." This involved me wearing a red tutu - because honestly, when else do you get the chance to do this. |

After voting last week, I also got to spend election night babysitting my favorite little boy. We read stories and played with our feet. He even wore his "I love my auntie" onesie just for me :)
This weekend Cole and I went with my parents to see K-State's production of The Music Man - I love musicals. We also went to a wedding with his parents. The time off was much needed after a crazy two weeks, and I even got in quite a bit of studying on Sunday. It was quite possibly a perfect weekend :)
