First impression of Cornell: Pretty...HUGE. We got lost on campus by car for about an hour or so, haha. The main bridge is closed and there were detour signs everywhere, and these giant magnificent architectural beauties, with trees and gardens and whatnot everywhere. Too bad that just served to block the view to get to my dorm even more ( Read more... )

Ohhhh, whoops. Heh, I applied for a summer course out here... it's a veterinary medicine program, 3 college credits and labs and all that stuff. I'm a geek, sorry. ^^"

All of that sounds so lovely, and, and free. Congratulations, I'm sure you'll have a wonderful time..and possibly learn a thing or two, but hey, what would be the point of that? ;)

I can't believe you have to dissect animals. :/ I understand that's kind of necessary if you want to help them later on, but I could never do that myself. I just discovered that I need to take another science to graduate in the next two years, and the only one I might somehow pass is Biology, but we have to dissect, er, something (frogs? pigs?) in that course, and I would never, ever be able to do that.

Heh, I think I've gotten used to it, in a way. Or at least, come to terms with it. The chickens that we use were originally raised to be egglayers then be turned into stew fit for human consumption... so I dunno, I guess it helps me knowing that either way, they would have ended this way.
But they purposely chose chickens for us that were already in some way 'defective' or whatever. Like... mine had a tumor in its uterus, poor dear. So I suppose it was a humane-ish ending.

Most bio classes do stuff like that. I know that I've done a perch(fish), dogfish, &several frogs. Most of the kids that go to the other school do fetal pigs and cow hearts. And though I personally think that its wrong... if they weren't being used for a learning experience to help us help them later on, they'd be being eaten, or worse. People that take sharkfins and then leave the shark in the ocean, unable to swim properly... gahh.

Ohh, and I meant to say... THANKS! Hehe, I adore Cornell, it is really funfun. ^___^
