Let's Salsa!




L to R: Lynn (I learned that I went to HS with her in 9th grade at Christian Center. She was a Senior...crazy!), me, Brooke, and Krystal



Time for an update: almost two weeks in. The plate is full. Neuroanatomy occupies much of the time, but microbiology/immunology is a close second (amazing what happens when you can't understand the professor's accent). Physiology is a joke (thus far, but I've been warned not to underestimate it ..waiting until cardiology...apparently that is quite difficult). Clinical skills is fun. We practiced testing the cranial nerves on Monday. Felt like a kid playing with big people toys. The Doc leading our group was the oldest of the bunch and the most experienced. While we were watching the introductory video, he kept leaning over asking me questions. I have to say, that was quite intimidating. I learned later that this guy is QUITE the character. Apparently, he makes his wife call him Dr. Stees:-) Haha...gotta love the old timers. Medical Information Science is the class to skip this semester. If I hear "evidence-based medicine" anytime soon, it would be too soon.
On to fun stuff. I signed up for a Salsa/Ballroom dancing class at the local community college. It's something I've always wanted to do, so I finally just went and found somewhere. Last Friday, a couple of ladies and I went to the local salsa club and attempted to dance...I say that because we are all lacking in the salsa department:-)
Well, back to Neuro...more to come later...love you all!
