Summer work!

Hooray! I found out today that I got a summer job in a vet clinic! This will be my first ever paid clinic work, and should really help boost my confidence and fill in some holes in my basic clinical skills. I can't wait to be a productive member of a clinic!

Also, I picked up my first cold of the school year. I almost thought I'd make it through the whole school year without getting sick, but it was not to be. Nothing a little sleep won't cure, I hope...

For those of you in the Twin Cities, you're all invited to the U of MN College of Vet Med open house on Sunday, April 6th from 11 AM to 4 PM. It's a great chance to explore the school and hospital, learn about how to get in to vet school and what being a vet student is all about, and meet people from all different aspects of the local animal care community. You can even see one of our fistulated cows, always a highlight! Those of you of the horsey persuasion can check out the new Equine Center too. The CVM open house is held in conjunction with the Raptor Center open house, so you can head across the street, meet some of their resident birds, and take a tour of the facility and clinic. I'll be manning (womaning?) the Holistic Club table again, although sadly since Pipkin developed his head tilt, he won't be joining me this year.

Hope to see lots of you there!
