Rainy season?

It's Sunday afternoon. I'm sitting in my apartment attempting to focus because I have 3 exams tomorrow. For some reason I cannot take my attention away from the torrential downpour that has been continuous for the last 36 hours, maybe it's because my roof is kind of like tin and I can hear it really well. Apparently it is hurricane season right now and I've been told that hurricane season is different than rainy season, but right now it really feels like rainy season. It's something new and I know when the rain stops, everything will seem greener and brighter. Ah, refreshing!

Well, back to it. Sometimes, when I'm feeling really discouraged I think about how when the exam is over, it's one more exam closer to coming home and becoming a doctor! So far, this method has worked pretty well:)

Been A While

Well, the end of my semester came and went and I can't believe that I'm already near the end of my second week of my second semester at med school. It's been really hard to get back into my rigorous studying habits and it's also been hard to get used to 6 to 8.5 hours of lecture a day. It really takes a lot to sit there and listen for that long. My new apartment is great and I have a nice ocean view. It's close to the nice grocery store and close to a lot of students. It's nice to have my own place but be close to people in case I need some company. You can check my new apartment out here.

I had a wonderful break and saw some wonderful people - hopefully during my next break I'll have time to see more wonderful people:) Here are some pics...

I started my time with a bride:)


I did some of this...


...danced with some friends...


rode on a motorcyle with Tyson...


got my ass kicked in some water sports...


reunited with the fam...


and my favourite place in the world...


went fishing with the boe and my sista...


met up with the missing piece to the puzzle of my fam...:)


and even got in a game of mini-golf!


A lot more than that happened, but really, how can you enjoy life if you're constantly trying to snap it in a picture???
