Finals Crunch!

I only have two more weeks of class, a one week cram session and then there is two weeks of finals. My last final is the Monday of the second week so I will be on summer vacation a whole week earlier than other students! Yay! So there is a good chance my blog will go silent till then if I am being a good student, which I should because I have never felt so behind in the material and so unprepared for these final exams.... I have NEVER felt this low about my academics and I pray I do not have to sit any supplemental exams or worse fail my first year of vet school!! (At least they will give me one chance to retake the course before they fully kick me out)...I know I have it in me to succeed, it just feels beyond unattainable at the moment! :( I need all of your prayers to get me through the next few weeks! 

And I am not sure if I mentioned this in my rectal palpations post, but my instructor went to Uni at UW-River falls, grew up in New Richmond, and then want to vet school at the Uof MN!! It is a crazy small world!!! His wife is from Zimbabwe and they moved to South Africa for a few years but he didn't like the crime and so applied for jobs in New Zealand and all over AU and he ended up in Perth @ murdoch!!! We were both blown away to meet each other! We chatted about the packers and how awful snow is when there are places like Australia that you could live in!! :) I mean, enjoy the fall weather everyone!!!! ;) but seriously! I tell everyone that I wouldn't trade my childhood with snow EVER! I loved sledding and it really is beautiful but I have lived it, enjoyed it and now I am just over it and rather be warm for a few years :) and I do get really sad for people who have NEVER experienced snow! 

It's getting crazy hot very fast here and it's not even November! Apparently I am goin to DIE in December and January!! 

OH and as of now my end of November and December work schedule looks like I work Friday nights (530-830), 8hour shifts Saturday and Sunday (8am-4pm or 4pm-midnight), and then Monday nights! So that gives Brian and I Tuesdays-Thursdays to explore this wonderful country (as long a he can coordinate it with his manager) :) we will explore close to us and then we would like to drive as far as we can in any direction on Tuesdays explore where we end up on Wednesday and drive home on Thursdays! The key will be find as many free adventures as possible!! :) 

and we still dog walk every Wednesday-Friday! Nomsa is THE cutest cocker spaniel ever! I hope we can continue to walk her for as long as we are here because we take her in the car to new places and just explore for an hour! It's amazing! :) 

Well this is my goodbye for a few weeks!! Unless I get really antsy and just need a distraction! I hope you don't miss me to much!!
