This week has proven to be a challenging one, but also one of great opportunity and of answered prayers. I will start with the best news of all - RANDY GOT A FULL TIME JOB!!! He received an email a few days ago from the woman he had communicated with the week before that said "You win" meaning he got a job. However this did not include any other details such as how many hours or what exactly he will be doing. He had to turn a few more forms and wait for this background check to be completed. We did not expect to hear anything for about five or so days after turning in the paperwork. However, yesterday Randy received a phone call from the same woman that said he was to start on Monday (tomorrow) and it was a FULL TIME position! We still don't have any idea what he will be doing except that he will be working for the Vet school and will be working with animals. We am so grateful for this enormous blessing! This is something Randy has been working towards for almost the past year. We are hopeful that this will be able to eventfully put him in a position to meet professors and get into graduate school. Getting a master's degree and a full time job in wildlife is his dream but we are overcome with gratitude for a reliable source of income. For me this is one more event in my life that proves that God knows who I am, that He hears and answers my prayers, and that His plan for me is always greater and more magnificent then I could possibly imagine for myself.
On Thursday I got the chance to witness a colic surgery! This semester I signed up for the Colic Team Elective because I wanted to see one of these fascinating surgeries. At 7 pm Thursday, I was studying with my friend Jessica, and I got a call that a horse with colic was coming in at 9 with surgery as an option. I got to the school at 9 pm that evening and left at 1:45 am. I haven't stayed up that late in years, but I am so glad I did! I learned so much and was able to meet some of the surgeons and internal medicine specialists.
Mitch got his very own ID badge for being a palpator dog! And seriously the photo on the badge is way better then any of the pictures I have of him.
I have my first cell physiology test tomorrow and my first anatomy test Friday! The end of this last week I have had a difficult time studying and having the energy to commit all of the information to memory, but I am sure that will a little extra will power I will shove all the information in there. :)
One of thing things that made me laugh this week was this diagram that one of my classmates made about studying anatomy. And YES I agree 100% with it!
Hahahahaha
