Week one: complete!

Just a quick post about my first week in veterinary school.  I am currently taking five courses: anatomy, physiology, animal husbandry, bimolecular science and professional skills.  So far things seem to be going well.  Biomolecular has been a review (no complaining here) and animal husbandry seems interesting.  The professional skills course is kind of mixed in with our other courses.  We had our first anatomy lab and learned how to use the different surgical tools in addition to making incisions, blunt dissection and skinning. It was awesome.  We also had our first lecture in anatomy learning about the scapula and the different tubercles/fossas present.



Next week we will start to learn the muscle insertions.  We haven't had physiology yet, that starts on Monday.

I also took some pics of my walk to school:

The canal 


The wooded path going from the canal to the housing development



Our neighbourhood

The house (porsche not included)

The vet school hangout:

Conveniently located right by the canal

The hill in the background is where Cochno farm is

My roommate and I decided to take a different path home on Friday.  Look what we found!


Highland cows!
