Written 4/12/12 but again weirdly did not get posted...

A million things were going on in my life around this time...

So I guess I will give a bulleted list and then just elaborate later if I have time....

• My parents watched the Addie-cat and spoiled the crap out of her. She is continuing to lick people and if you don't want to be exfoliated then it is kinda annoying
• I went to Gatlinburg for my friend's bachelorette and it was so much fun. We stayed at a cabin in the smokies with a hot tub on the porch, went for a hike in the mountains...
• It deserves it's own bullet: I saw 2 bears!!!!!
• Had so much amazing food there. I'm not kidding. Best BBQ ever.
• Loved having a 3 day sleepover with some of my girlfriends. I forget how much fun it is, you don't do that much after high school.
• Came back and relaxed. Kind of a lot
• I went home for Easter and it was so great! We dyed Easter eggs and even went on an Easter egg hunt even though we are far, far to old for it. psh.
• Still am having so much fun at  vet school, classes this block are not especially taught well, for various different reasons but that part kinda sucks.
• On the bright side I am starting my research which is flat out terrifying!!! Someone goes in everyday to the ICU and every dog needs to be evaluated to see if they are eligible for our study. If they aren't then no biggie and we go on with our lives but if they are.....Then it gets scary, well for my because you have to call the clinician and see if it is ok if you draw blood from their patient. Then you have to call the client and see if theeeey think it's ok. See why that would freak a shy kid out?Then you have to get blood and when I went for the first time by myself I asked a 3rd year to help me and he had me try doing it. One of them was kind of fat and he even had a hard time doing it, but the other...
• I got blood from a dog all by myself!!! YAY!
• Then I take it to the lab and do things with machines and pipettes that make me feel like a bad ass.
• Plus I had to write the standard operating procedures for the lab stuff and it was kinda of nerve-wracking, but when I sent it to Dr. VRSP, she said "Good job Breanna...." and then the rest of her email was boring but the beginning was like getting a gold star!
• Ran 2.5 miles today and felt fine,so that was nice after not running
• My parents dog ate my mom's Kindle. Not funny for her, but a little funny if you ignore the cost of said kindle.
• Also before break my roomies and I painted canvases! I will post pictures later :)
