So my assignment just decided to submit this morning. After 30 hours of fighting with it the file submitted on it's own. I'm pumped, but man what a pain!
We had a patient this morning. A real live patient! It was so fun. This gentleman had worked as a physiotherapist who owned his own practice until he had a stroke at 45. He is now a very active hemiplegic who is extraordinarily resilient. We hung out and appreciated everything he could teach us until 11:20. Luckily we got a short break before our 12p lecture because registration for the 2013 Melbourne Triathlon went on sale at 11a. Reports said it sold out in 4minutes and it didn't look available when I initially attempted to register but someone must have taken to long and been logged out because I snuck in at 1124. That's right I'm going to try to be full iron Maddie:) It's a fantastic course with tons of spectator entertainment(hint hint). Check it out at ironmanmelbourne.com.
I tried to pay attention in the 12p lecture but between the ironman and the assignment I was having a hard time staying focused. To add to that grade breakdowns for our exam went up. I was exactly 75th percentile beating the average by 13 people and 10%. I still don't know that I understand the grading system so I better just keep trying as hard as I can.
After lecture I road home, ate lunch, looked up ironman videos, went for a 6 mile run, ate ice cream, lounged around, had wine and cheese with Katie, planned out next week...
The ice cream was fun. The don't really have cookie dough here so alternatively I had vanilla chocolate chip. I would have taken a picture but it was too delicious. I went on a 6mile run that ended at the ice cream shop. Perfect plan, it makes the ice cream so much better. The girl at the counter said, "With an ice cream that big you'll cancel your workout" People in Melbourne seem to think that all runners are on a strict diet. I try to eat healthily most of the time but I run enough that I have a few extra calories for sweets.
I'm working all day again tomorrow I think I'm going to need to adjust my skype day to Saturday afternoons. If you're around tomorrow, try me, you may be able to get me on my phone between games. Oh while I was bumming around this afternoon, I did a little bit of reformatting on my blog it should fix the crazy font issue. Let me know how it works.
