pathology, anatomy, and opp...oh my

hey outside world,

it has been awhile since I have posted an update and that is because I took my free weekend to actually go to the lake with some friends and relax and get away from school for a bit. We ended up having a blast doing wakeboarding, tubing, and then OPP on all our sore muscles. So know that we are back in the real world ill take a moment (cause that is all I have) to reflect on what has happened so far in the past couple of weeks. I ended up getting 3 A's and a B on first block of exams which made me very happy. Now that we are on the second block we have moved into the lower limb anaomty, and i find myself watching people's gaits and how they walk. It has been kinda a ackward and I always have to explain myself if anybody catches me. In MFM we have started pathology of dieseases and are currently working on studying cancer!!! This is what I have waited for and am excited to be studying and working on what I feel/hope will be my life's work one day. For all those who have had loved ones die of cancer or know someone who has cancer my thoughts are with you as I study this terrible disease. God willing one day we can and will find more cures, but the best treatment is the optimism that we can put life into the days we have, not days into our lives. OPP we have learned some soft tissue techniques so if anybody has had headaches, back pain, or neck pain...I can now treat you. Finally in EPC we are figuring out the bascis of a physical exam, HEENT, and blood pressures. One of my friends today said she needed a new brain cause hers was full and I am feeling the strain on my crainium as I type. Hopefully, I will update before my next exams, but considering I have 4 in the span of the next 14 days I might not get the chance too. So keep me in your prayers as I am continually in need of them. I hope all is well with you and maybe one I will see you soon, but for now...I am gonna go run...literally. peace
