Wow that's alot. Good luck with all that. Genetics sounds fun.

On Monday my spring semester starts. I am taking Chinese Language, Chinese Women in Fiction and Film, Sex and Socialism, a biology course called From Conception to Birth and Literary Theory (Lots of Twain and Melville on the syllabus!). Really looking forward to all of them.

Two out of three isn't bad!! I got through microbiology by the skin of my teeth.

Is there a difference between being a vet for farm vs. pets?

Yes typically one specializes in large animals (farm animals), small animals (companion animals like dogs and cats), or exotics

But everyone in my major has to take structure of farm animals for some reason...

All you people are making me think I should do some correspondence courses or something, difficulty is deciding what.....

aww, good luck. I'm sure you'll do fine. I'm pretty nervous about my classes too. Do you have a pretty heavy courseload?

I'm studying B.Sc Behavioural Genetics. First years all do a similar B.Sc course. I'll be doing Biology, Chemistry, Maths, Psychology (this replaces physics with the other first years will be doing) and Computer, I think that's all. But we have lots and lots of practical classes which will occupy my time till late at night. :(

Kudos to you, papayahed! That takes a lot of motivation to jump back into the education routine . . . attendance, studying, homework, etc. Make us proud!
I have put some thought into graduate school to advance my RN degree, perhaps within the next year or two; ideally, I would like to remain in critical care, but maybe make the transition to a nurse practitioner or into anesthesiology a bit easier.
Have they slammed you with studies yet? :D

Thanks Mono. Apparently I'm not as smart as I thought I was :lol:. My spanish class might be a little difficult. I'm finding my memorization skills aren't what they used to be and we've already had a quiz. My fiction professor seems pretty cool, even though we started off reading a poem!!!!:sick:. The reading list looks pretty good, if not a little ambitious. I'd say a quarter of it I've already read.

while the stars that oversprinkle
all the heavens seem to twinkle
with a crystalline delight...


sorry. couldnt help it.

I just finished my first large assignment. 15 weeks to go in this semester!
