Thanksgiving? Or, Halloween?

Well Dear readers it's been a Strange week with Grenadian Thanksgiving on Wednesday and Halloween tomorrow, which meant that all of us students did all are Halloween stuff Saturday and Sunday, so bring on the Christmas music. Because for most of us students go home in December, but hey can't think about that now since we are about 4-5 weeks out from finals, and that means that quizzes pick back up, assignments are going to be do soon. Which is why there was so much going on this last weekend, I had things going on everyday from Friday to Sunday, Island school life my not be a super chill relaxing why to go though vet school but we do actually try to have fun when we think we can get away with it which is to say very rarely unless it is something quick like watching some youtube, or playing a video game for A (1) hour. It's these little things that keep us sane and motivated, then you have these crazy weekends where you almost forget you are in school (almost), true it is probable slightly detrimental to our study's, health, and sleep, but hey they did tell us that we would be maladjusted to the real world when we started, we all know how boring that research must have been so for all of us here we try to keep everything at status quo.
Till next week Happy Halloween, and Late/Early Thanksgiving, TTFN

Island House Hunter Or, Time after Time

Hello Dear Readers, This last week was a slow one thank God, and this upcoming week we get Wednesday off for Thanksgiving? (I know it's a bit weird that it's before Halloween but I am sure that all the stores in the US already have Christmas stuff out). Last week was also strange because I did pass all my midterms, so I was remembering last term, and also how this time last year I was still in undergrad (Let's Go Peay), it's just crazy to think about that not that long ago I was still just trying to pass the ACT's and now I am Here! Which just blows my mind (I have to do the math every time I have to tell people how old I am... 24).

So changing Gears, me and my roommates are getting an apartment, and it's very nice. Now finding a apartment on the Island is a bit different since most of the landlords live off island, so it's a lot of back and forth emails which can get really irritating when things change on you and you have to email the realtor, so they can email the landlord so we can figure out how much money we need to get together. but at least the property manager is super cool, to be far this place is very nice and from what we where told it's had a string of bad renters so I can kind of understand why the landlord is being weird.

Sorry Readers I just read back though this post and it feels more disjointed then usual so let me clarify I am actually not stressed out about vet school for the first time since starting vet school, it is not that it's some how easier now it's just that I am passing classes, and I final feel like hey I do belong here, I can do this whole Vet school thing.
This weeks lesson is that everything looks so much more beautiful when you are actually looking. TTFN

Living on a Prayer Or Is Grenada the most saportive island? Or Litting them Down

So I still have two midterm test results to get (but I honestly don't have a good feeling about them) so I wanted to get this one out before I ether fail-out (I write only half lite heartily), or pass/get a high enough score that they don't kick my out right away and I have to study even harder. I am so incredibly thankful of all the support that everyone has given to me, all the prayers, and well wishes for school, I won't lie and say that all the support doesn't endlessly stress me out with a totally unreal fear of disappointing all of you. I know it's crazy but I am very confident in my insanity at this point in my life, regardless to my sanity or lack their of I know for a fact that I don't deserve Friends and Family as awesome as all of you, Thank you for having my back.
Related to this is the fact that leading up to midterms and during midterms the Locals of Grenada have been super great Bev who is the house keeping for our room has told me that she is parying for us every time I see her which most weeks is twice, multiple complete strangers have come up and told me that they pray for us students everyday, which is very powerful.
Now let's not get all doom and glum here Heck I made it further towards my goals then I thought I would when I got in to vet school so all this is icing on the cake, (and if I didn't screw up these last two midterms to bad I will keep pushing).
so just to rap this up, you are all great, Grenada is great, and vet school is a long never ending nightmare that I wouldn't trade all the dept that I now have for a moment of it.



I would Rather try to catch my Dreams, Chasing them across the earth, oceans, and sky above. Till I can no longer run, and Fail.
Then live life safely, and Never even Try to Run.  TTFN
