This post is going to be completely random, we've been holed up in front of books and notes and lost touch with the world outside Kirksville.
Where to start...FINALS are OVER! These last 2 weeks I had 10 exams and Mike had 3 that pretty much consumed every waking moment (and a few nightmares). Even though we left the house only for work/school/working out the time flew by!
This quarter had a few new classes for me including Neuroscience, Principles of Medicine (pretty much learn everything clinical), Pharmacology, Infectious Disease, Pathology, and continuing OTM. I really enjoyed having the variety and finally getting our feet wet with the clinical courses. It was a challenging quarter but VERY interesting topics...most of which definitely don't count as dinner conversation (mummification in pathology, anything infectious, and drug contraindications...).
Mike's been working on his research project, working, and loving Biochemistry!
We've included some study pictures, our stack of notes/notecards for the quarter (yes, that really is just this quarter), puppy study breaks and a few randoms.
We took a video of Linus test driving the frontpack, as you can see he was more than happy to just hang out.
Next week we are excited to be spending our week off traveling to Des Moines, Amherst, and Milwaukee. It will be really nice to see family and friends that we haven't seen for a long time, not to mention getting out of Kirksville:) We'll be sure to post pictures and videos of our "vacation". Hope everyone has a good Thanksgiving!

Holly's comment is priceless. She's right, I can't see either of you (or me) yelling "Dick, stop it" without busting up laughing.
