This week has been off to a pretty good start. The weekend mostly consisted of late night study sessions at the new med school campus, which is now my new favorite place to study. Monday morning we went over the bones and muscles of the hand, followed by a presentation where a hand surgeon showed us videos of several different procedures he has recently performed. It was really awesome, and is definitely something I would be interested in doing. Looking around the classroom was funny, because you could spot the people that would never want to do surgery by the grossed-out looks on their faces. Abby and I had the afternoon off, while our tank mates dissected the forearm. In the evening we were brought up to speed on what we missed. We had our quiz at the beginning of lab this morning (!!), during which time we dissected the hand. It was our first morning anatomy lab and was the longest, most tedious lab so far. It was fascinating regardless. In the afternoon we had our usual Tuesday humanities Kumbaya session, followed by histo lab over endocrine glands. This section is going to suck; hopefully there are not many test questions concerning this topic.
In the afternoon I hung out with my close friend Rachel, who is visiting from Florida all week for her best friend's wedding. Tonight will be dedicated to learning all the remaining muscles in the upper limb, and tomorrow will be dedicated to histology :(
