I know what you do to the cats...
Hello! I know it's been a few days but there really isn't too much new to report down here. The big news is that i am now posting FROM MY APARTMENT!!! That's right. I signed up for the service, and fifteen short days later, BOOM, I have internet. Technology is grand. So now I am happy because I dont have to scurry to the library every time I want to check something online or send an email, I can do it from my kitchen. For those if you who have invested in a webcam, this means live conversations very soon! And since its wireless, I can show you around my apartment, my view, and all that. Yeah!!!
So things are pretty good here. School continues to be a challenge but so far we are all managing pretty well. The dissection we are doing in gross is the best part of classes- I've never had so much fun learning before! I am quite free to be a nerd here.
I put in a picture of Ryan and I on the Catamaran trip from last week. I used to work with Ryan in Farmington CT way back in the day- we ran into each other here- cool huh? And a picture of the shirt I got when I joined the AAFP club, the American Association of Feline Practitioners, ha ha its funny.
Oh I just remembered- On sunday I was craving a break from studying so I walked down this little path from campus called the "stairway to the sea". It leads down through the woods to a gazebo type structure that hangs over the rocks on the ocean. If you sit on the edge you can feel the spray from the surf. I think I've found my new zen territory. I will take pix next time I go down.
And finally - the title. Quick explanation- about a month before I left for school, 1st grade teacher Erin Trumble sent me an email asking me if her students could each send me a letter. She had just taught them about vets and was practicing letter writing with them as well. The catch is that all of the students wrote to me as if I was already a vet and I had to write back in the same way. I have already sent my group reply to the class, but these letters and illustrations(not sure where my arms attach on that one) make me smile every time I pick them up, which is quite often. I wanted to share some of my favorites with you...
Hope these brighten your day!
Talk to you all soon and if you're not already, GET. ON. SKYPE.
