i can't remember the sound that you found for me
i've now had more than a full week of classes in med school, and i've been around and doing school-related orientation activities for two weeks. it's weird living in a new city. london always smells like skunks, and has lots of squirrels. and dentists. i like my house mostly but so far it's no fiddy arnold street (but really, what could be?).
today we did our first dissection. it was really weird. they don't look anything like you'd expect. it was mostly fine except that a guy from another table came over and was (i thought) pretty disrespectful to our cadaver (umm, i never thought that i would write THAT sentence) which pissed me off.
so far it's just OK here. i don't love it. it's hard to be kind of meh about school when everyone else in the program is super thrilled about everything and everyone outside the school thinks you're living a dream. not really true.
i'm not trying to sound ungrateful, though, i guess it's just that i'm always going to be full of doubts about things and that's just who i am. so i should get used to it.
i really miss fencing and mac people and artsci. rahim and ryan both came to visit this week and it felt great to be with people who i know and who i feel comfortable with and who share the same interests. i missed them both.
on a completely different note, i've been listening to the leak of the new weakerthans album, reunion tour, and it's fantastic. i'm definitely going to buy it when it comes out, and i'm going to see them when they come to london on november 9th. the song "virtute the cat explains her departure," the follow up to "plea from a cat named virtute," off the last album, is amazing. it made me cry (and still makes me tear up every time i listen). maybe i should have gone to vet school.
