1/8 MD

And a new semester begins! I guess I shouldn't technically call it a semester, because we technically have two "blocks" this spring, one going to the end of March, and then a second in April and May. We are now done with Anatomy and Biochemistry, and in place of those two classes, we now have Immunology, Microbiology, and Genetics. Physiology, Histology, and Practice of Medicine continue.

I guess they thought we weren't busy enough last semester.

So with the new year I say farewell to having Wednesday and Friday afternoons free (if "free" means studying). I guess I shouldn't complain too much, however, because I am sitting in class right now, blogging. Sometimes I take class time to ponder whether sitting in class helps me at all - today, we were regaled with a 15 minute analogy comparing Pokemon to microbes. All I learned was which of my classmates to tease about their childhood (or perhaps current) activities...

I'm not really one for New Year's resolutions, but I do hope to improve some basic life skills. Like flossing every day. Cooking dinner on the stove (instead of the microwave) and making it to the grocery store at least once a week. Exercising a few times per week. Oh yeah, and maybe studying a little.
