back to school

So, I went back to school yesterday… I can’t say I was ready to end my break (who would be?), but it’s nice be getting into a new routine. Plus, the sooner I start, the sooner summer will come! Speaking of summer…it’s quite the opposite here. It’s been absolutely frigid here, and Buffalo is even worse being close to the lake. Let’s just say walking to and from class is absolute torture.

Today was my first clinical rotation = lab coat day!

We basically just did HR stuff, like getting our badges and things, but we’ll start seeing patients as early as next week. Scary exciting.

flashcards

Midterms start this week.

Seriously, where did the semester go??? (Don’t get wrong; I’m thrilled that time seems to be flying, but how…?)

With my medical terminology test coming Friday, I busted out my flashcards over lunch today.

Wish me luck! My lifecycle and dance midterms (yes, dance) tests are Wednesday, followed by terminology and then nutrition therapy the following week.

Holly runs on Dunkin’

Yes she does.

My friend Stephanie–classmate, running and study partner–and I met up at our usual hangout this afternoon for the first study session of the semester. What you see is my super-smart lunch…or not. What this post should REALLY say is, “Holly runs on Dunkin’… Until she doesn’t.” An hour and a half later, I was in a sugar coma and craving vegetables in a bad way. I’m not normally a Subway fan, but at 3:30 and facing a Target run, I needed something.

But, I digress. Poor snack choices aside, it felt good to be back in the study groove, in our booth, at our Dunkin’.
