Today marks one month on the island for me; I siumultaneously can't believe it's only been a month and that it even has been a month since I started vet school. Even though I've been in school (and working hard!) since the end of August, it's starting to feel like fall around here: days are getting noticably shorter, nights are cold, mornings require hoodies, the crops are harvested and I get stuck behind school buses on the way to class. The island is even more ahead of the game with cheesy fall decorations than back home, but I love that stuff so it's been nice to watch the pumpkins and scarecrows start to make their appearances. And then I look at the calendar and realize September is almost gone and it's like holy crap, where does the time go!?
School is going suspiciously well. I feel like I'm keeping up with the material but also balancing studying with sleep and fun. I wish we had some kind of quiz or test so we could gauge our knowledge of the material and I could see if I'm studying enough but I guess I'll just have to keep up my studying and wait until midterms. Kind of scary, but oh well. I also think I need to modify my strategy a little so that I'm taking notes from my typed notes at the end of the day. Reading over typed notes isn't all that good for studying.
