Back in the states

We landed in TX last night around 6:00. It is great to be back in the states. It is funny how used to driving on the wrong side of the road I have become. It seems so strange pulling out into traffic. Also, hot water in the kitchen sink. I keep forgetting. Oh, and dishwashers are one of the best inventions ever! The hamburger from Chili's was better than I remember.

Some pictures of E's garden. :)

a pseudo home

It is official, we are 5th termers! We have not gotten our CPD grades back, but path is out, and we both passed! I can hardly believe that this horrible term is over. Finally!

We both feel like flying!

 

 

 The 3rd termers are arriving back on the island just as our term is starting to depart. It has been a long time since I have been home, and I am really looking forward to it. It kinda seems weird to be leaving. Grenada has become a pseudo home, at first it was a very strange place, but now I know the roads and stores and places and it is not unfamiliar. It has even become ordinary. We all live here, but we don't think of it as home, because we know it is temporary. I have made some really good friends on this island, and I have said goodbye to 2 really great friends. It is sad, but part of the temporary. When we come back in August, we will only have 4 months left, and that is gonna be awesome, but it still seems a bit surreal. Hopefully my time home will not fly by as fast as it did last summer. I am really glad that I have had my best friend with me on this adventure!

Tomorrow is the big day

Pathology final 9 a.m. in the morning. Doing some practice problems, then to bed. Will feel much better this time tomorrow!

Last lecture of 4th term!!

Today, we sat in on our last lecture of the term. :) We have lab this afternoon, and that will be our last lab. Big study day, and test start Friday. I was beginning to think this week would never come, and as all things, once it gets close to what you have been waiting for, time will speed up. I took a few pictures yesterday.

My friend A

I have a friend who has an AWESOME camera, and since his wife and baby just left to go back to the states, he said he wouldn't be using it, and ask if I wanted to borrow it. THANKS, really, how can I say no, and yet all I have time for is studying. I said Yes. I am thankful to get to play with such a cool distraction!

Nutrition is over

Go right now and eat some fruits and vegetables! D and I took our nutrition final on Monday, and we both did very well, and it is nice to come out of an exam not feeling like you are on the wrong planet. We now only have 2 classes left for the rest of the semester, CPD and pathology.

Studying still, and counting down the days till we leave. Hurricane season starts today, and oddly enough there are black clouds in the sky and it is quite windy.  I am sure that doesn't mean anything!? We have a CPD quiz tomorrow, so gotta get back to work. One more class down.

My friend K, who practice her photography skill on us, Shiloh was being really good!
