So currently I feel like I'm keeping a good pace on this blog but as soon as classes start I will have to figure a schedule out for making these posts weekly or biweekly we will see how it goes.
Anyway lets talk about campus some seeing as I have now taken the tour I can say that without even a flicker of doubt that this school has the best views of any vet school you care to name. also I am beginning to figure out that the med school side of things is much larger then the vet school, (SOM avg class 300+, from what I've been told. SVM avg class 110, my class rosters actually say 109 but hay close enough). Moving right along the dorms are nice nothing amazing (see photos), I am staying in St, Andrews (all of the dorms are named after parishes or saints) and while it is one of the newer dorms so it does have 110 volt outlets, it feels kinda rundown but then again when you are this close to the water things age fast. the hall ways don't have AC but the rooms all do. Sleeping at night is hard to do the first night as there is some type of bird that makes a high pitched almost beeping sound but I am already getting used to it, the thing that I think will take longer to get used to, is that the airport runway is partly behind the school and even though I am in one of the furthest dorms away form the airport you still fell like the jets are landing on you every time. the smaller planes don't really have the same impact but you can still here them non the less. And finely Ive got my books a dissection kit and a very nice stethoscope (see picture below), vet students have it easy all are books and notes and stuff would fit in a backpack but the med students where all using there large luggage to carry there books. I think that's about it for now but I will update you as I get closer to the start of class and figure more stuff out.
