Meh

I'm having trouble being motivated to study, so I thought I'd take some time to ramble about my life.  Last semester getting myself to study wasn't a problem.  I loved most of my classes and found them really interesting.  Perhaps it's the fact that I've spent 20 years in school (that's right, folks.  Twenty.) and I'm ready to be finished.  Maybe it's because most of the things we're learning are about cows and I know the likelihood of me working on cattle later in life is about the same as the likelihood of me becoming an exotic dancer.  Now that I think about it, the chances of becoming an exotic dancer may actually be higher.  Hmm.

On another note, small ruminant surgery was pretty cool today.  I did a tracheostomy, a small intestinal resection and anastomosis, a C-section, an abdominal exploratory, a toe amputation, and learned how to do a Ford Interlocking suture pattern.  I really love surgery.  Bring on the blood and guts!

So far my exercise program is going well.  I've been working out every day and I've lost a few pounds.  Yay!  I'm meeting with my trainer for the first time tomorrow to do initial testing.  I'm looking forward to the workouts, but I think the testing beforehand will be fairly awful.  The worst part is when they pinch the fattest areas of your body (which is never fun, no matter what size you are).  I suppose I'll survive it.  But I don't have to like it. 

I know you people have much more important things to do than read my blog, but if you do read it, thanks!  I get super excited when I get comments, so if you ever think of something, comment away!  I guess I should attempt to study (yet again), but when I get bored next time, perhaps I'll tell you about my tattoos.

  1. First off, I hope you're too creeped out that I'm commenting within half an hour of you posting this. Besides that I'm jealous of your studying abilities. Last semester was like pulling teeth for me and I feel like I barely made it out alive. Congrats on the workout program! It's so satisfying to see the pounds drop off. Getting the fat pinchers used on you definitely sucks but it'll give you good motivation! I hope you have fun.

  2. I was really motivated last semester, but all I want to do now is sleep or do something fun. This semester is just so boring! And I'm actually not creeped out at all, because I tend to do the same. Thanks for the comment!!
