"Running well is a matter of having the patience to persevere when you are tired and not expecting instant results. The only secret is that it is consistent, often monotonous, boring, hard work. And it's tiring." - Robert de Castella

Compliments of Mariana, my awesome training buddy whom I miss loads since I moved away. I miss her so much my body hasn't been the same since :0) I've definitely acquired more flab without her to kick my ass and make me run harder.

well the phone rang at 5:30 this morning and when it woke me up i was hoping it was rebecca saying school was cancelled. turned out ann was getting called in for an emergency. school was on. i didn't want to go. i was tired and didn't feel prepared for my exam. rebecca picked me up and came to the door to tell me she couldn't get into my parking lot so she was on the side. i went outside 2 minutes later to get into rebecca's car but i just went to get into the car that was backing out in front of me. i tried to open the back door but it was locked and i noticed the handle opened differently than rebecca's and the girl in the driver's seat was waving at me. i realized this wasn't rebecca and i felt so stupid. turned out it was my neighbor and fellow classmate, also a heather.

went thru morning classes and the snow kept coming. half my class was supposed to take the exam at 1pm and the other half at 2pm. i was a 2pm person. at the end of my last morning class my radiology professor came in and said that the school was closing at 2 so everyone had to take the exam at 1. that felt like such a screw job since i was counting on studying that extra hour. luckily the exam wasn't so hard though i made at least one stupid mistake by erasing the right answer and putting the wrong one.

after the exam rebecca, margaret and i went outside to find the sun shining and the weather seemingly mild. there was plenty of snow on the ground but it had stopped snowing at that point. we went to rockabelly for something to eat. rebecca took me home and we got stuck trying to get into my parking lot. it took rebecca and 2 guys off the street to back us up while i pressed the gas. i later learned from my roommate that earlier that morning when she came back from emergency she couldn't get into the parking lot at all and had to be towed in to her parking spot.

i was thinking to destress after my exam i would take cleo out into all the snow. when i got home my roommate and the dogs were gone so i assumed she was at the park. so i went across the street to the park and found them with a couple junior vet students and their dog. so the 3 dogs got to run loose in snow. the snow was high enough to completely cover cleo's legs. she had a nice workout.

now i'm just happy to relax until tomorrow morning.

Even in medicine, though it is easy to know what honey, wine and hellebore, cautery and surgery are, to know how and to whom and when to apply them so as to effect a cure is no less an undertaking than to be a [veterinarian].
