Three Months Later

... Like Ferris Bueller says "Life moves pretty fast. If you don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it."

In the last three months, I've finished 5th term, applied for 4th year schools, headed to the US for winter break, been accepted to my 4th year school and now I'm heading back down to Grenada to finish living the dream.

5th term was probably the busiest, most stressful semester so far in vet school, but somehow was one of the funnest and most exciting. There was ALWAYS something to do or something to study... And in the rare moment of breathing time, there was always something you *could* do! This last term in Grenada is likely to FLY BY, but hopefully it will settle/slow down pretty quickly.

I found out recently that I will be heading to Louisiana State University for my 4th year studies!! GEAUX TIGERS!! Pretty excited about that as I will be joined there by two of my room mates and another of our closest friends. That new chapter of my life starts in June of this year. And already I'm finding out about all sorts of friends and family that claim to have "connections" at LSU... We will see if some of these can come through and hopefully I will be able to find a place to live there with people as awesome as the ones that I have been with the past 3 years now!

Since arriving in the US for winter break, I've been doing a lot of work, family, friends and hunting. I've been very fortunate to get to go hunting with some of my best friends and with some of the guys that have tried to teach me everything they know in the past. For my money there is still nothing better than seeing the sunrise from a pit blind in the middle of a field on the Eastern Shore of Maryland. No matter where I go or what I see in life, that will continue to be my happy place.

Recharged and ready, I'm headed to my last term on the ROCK with the light at the end of the tunnel in view, fully knowing that the light is an oncoming train in the form of my clinical year!!
