Well I had a pretty exciting day.  No pictures though:(
Like all Mondays I had a little bit of trouble getting out of bed.  It was supposed to rain so I decided against biking, not to mention I'm still riding the old one.  I went to class and learned about precision and accuracy for two hours.  I pondered when this concept was first introduced to me.  Really I'm trying to figure out how my classmates could have gotten this far in their education without studying research.  After that I met with my group, we split up the assignment and decided to meet again on Wednesday at lunch.  Our topic is "The usefulness of and inclinometer in measuring lumbar flexion"Then we learned about ACL tears and why women have more ligament and tendon problems than men.  That was it for classes. Early day:) I tried to get my tax file number on the way home but after and hour and a half tram ride I needed a paper copy of my visa.  This is particularly annoying because the US refuses to give me a paper copy.  It's all electronic.  The US government knows this the Australian government knows this but the post office wants a piece of paper before they will notarize my tax form.  I got home a Warwick called me.  They want me to start training their footie team right now.  Well actually he called at 5 and wanted me there by 6.  I biked over, it's only about 7K.  I met with Fiona the head phisio, taped a wrist, 2 fingers and learned some back mobs.  Not too bad.  After talking for a bit Fiona realized that she didn't have my email which lead to the who did I talk to..... it turns out that I had gone to the wrong practice and the new trainer who was supposed to be working for them didn't show up.  The practice I was supposed to be at was in the adjacent oval behind the trees.  I went to my intended practice.  It's a much smaller operation.  I will be working solo except for games where I will be the head trainer.  Um yikes! I'm excited by way under qualified.  I'm going to stick with this footie team for now because they seem like they need the help.  I'd like to see if I can't get involved with the other one on some level as well.  I think I could learn more from working with a Physio than I can just trying stuff out on my own.  Fiona gave me her card so I'm going to write her a letter to say I enjoyed working with her for an hour and I'd like to learn from her when possible.
