Snowballs, Surgery and Violin!

The proverbial shit is about to hit the fan folks. I’m referring to school here. This week is like the breather week. I just finished getting my papers in last week for two classes and now I get a chance to attempt to get caught up or prepare for the upcoming stress. Next week is when stress will begin to snowball and gain speed. It’ll get bigger and faster until BAM! It’ll be summer, my brains will be fried, and my body will be limp from a lack of sleep. Then I’ll sleep for a week (nevermind work.. it’s just safety courses anyway) and then be fresh for the frickin awesome summer to come! So I just have a massive and terrifying hurdle to leap to get there. Yeah! I’m so…. stoked.

Aside from that, I took my kitty to the vet clinic yesterday to have a tumor removed on her tummy. It was cool! I got to watch her surgery as well as a couple other dogs get neutered. This is important for up and coming vets to experience. The vet that did the surgeries was really friendly and down-to-earth. My first experience with a vet wasn’t really nice. She didn’t like kids and just didn’t seem to be good with communicating with people. So she basically scared the shit outta me (since I was only like 15). And although I’ve always wanted to be a vet, I was still a little wary of them. So it was a good experience and I learned a lot that morning about things like testosterone regulation (and why body builders have tiny testicles), viewpoints on de-clawing cats and euthanasia, and a little bit about vet school and ‘the interview.’ It was a good morning for sure.

Thats about it. Oh, yesterday my sister made me aware of a sweet youtube video, take a look see:
