3/12/2012

Sorry guys the Internet is not connecting (again!)so the formatting has to wait till I get into class. If you're annoyed imagine how I feel. The repair man is coming a week from Wednesday so maybe things will get better after that.
My phone turned off over night so my alarm didn't go off. Oh no! That's ok I woke up at 730 anyway. I rushed into class and made it there by 830. I was on time for class but missed the gym and shower. 
Today was Melbourne labor day. If you notice I said Melbourne and not Australian. It is a city wide holiday that is only celebrated in the city limits, even the outlying suburbs don't get to celebrate. As a grad student I don't get to celebrate either. There were some perks though. Campus was much emptier and the road closures gave me a 4lane bike path.
Today's first lecture was adverse drug reactions. He's a really good lecturer so it was quite fun. After class we meet in one of our 4 research groups and discussed the assignment breakdown. I'm still supposed to be researching the drugs that have been on my to do list for the past week. After the meeting Tory and I went to get coffee. Our favorite place was closed so we headed to the backup. We had specifically said that we didn't want to study during the break today but found ourselves walking to the library anyway. We got in an hour which was just long enough for me to finish my outlines.

The next class was pharmacological interventions of inflammation. I think I need another lecture on what that one was about. It didn't seem bad at the time but looking back at my notes I don't know what's going on. We actually refrained from studying or talking about the exam during lunch. It was beautiful and I relaxed on the lawn with my friends. We went back for the theory lecture. I don't mind them too much but as my friends point out all she does is tell us what we need already know(but have never heard of) but doesn't really teach us anything.
Class ended at 4 and I rode home.

beating your tram home....priceless!


When I got home I made a salad for Katie and myself for dinner tonight and a broccoli and garlic Stromboli to take to class tomorrow. 

Katie decided to buy some kind of weird special flour with chunks but it still came out quite good. I studied and prepared for class tomorrow. I could study more I suppose but I feel reasonably confident in my understanding of the material. I'm debating what to do before bed, read tread or take a practice exam.....hmmmm
