the vet student....

Celebrates Hallowe'en much unlike the native university student, with lager by the gallon and skimpy outfits. The vet student, like many Hallowe'ens before (except maybe first year), sits in a bundle of blankets at home and explores its own surroundings for the Nth time and always finds a new speck on the wall to devote the majority of its attention to instead of the more obvious mountain of notes before itself, despite the precarious situation ahead of knowing next to NIL for its upcoming exams. It continues this bizarre behaviour for a period until, like a bird abruptly changing directions with the wind, it snaps out of its mesmerized stupor and curses itself for being such an attention deficient imbecile.

Look at all this pastel shit going on. I think this blog needs to look more exciting. Hmm, something for exam study procrastination or better still - AFTER exams. But who are we kidding?

Also I finally figured out how the hell to change things on this stupid blog. So I can't be arsed to re-align photos of videos so here is a disclaimer saying that I don't really care if it looks like a mess. Ok bye.

i have been SO busy

It's the business end of semester. After completing 6 exams in the last 2 weeks, i'm in the last 2 weeks of school leading up to the very last 6 exams that will mark the end of my theory vet years. We just had a talk last Friday about the many ways we could fail final year, and it all seems so daunting.. 8am starts (sometimes even 7.30am), night time rotations, spending majority of my weekends on call (and 30 mins away at any given time)... but it will be fucking great. There is no way final year is gonna get me down even before i've started.

So my brain is already starting to break down even before I've started on this home stretch. I've got a beach roadtrip, 3 weeks of horse placement, Radiohead and Harvest festival to look forward to after exams... To sit for any supplementary exams will absolutely KILL the buzz of my last summer holiday as a student. I CAN DO THIS!

I've compiled a little collection of songs that i've had on rotation for the last few weeks. Or months. For some music tastes, maybe not all, but they're all pretty damn good songs. Sharing is caring. Here we go.

For the stoners.. I know you're out there ;)


I embed a song from MySpace (that's the only place I could find it and it turned out like this). It's such a lovely song, I heard it on AM Radio while I was visiting a rather fat and rather vocal cat with some degree of arthritis.

Fading Away









Winding it down now.


Just a dash of Pogo..


 Best for last. This one just to remind us all in the southern hemisphere that SUMMER IS COMING!! And that there's always the light at the end of the tunnel. God damn just listening to this song as I type this already makes me positive!
 

Well that was just a giant clusterfuck of music. I should really do up entries by genre.

Just quietly... I got 100% for my horse practical exam. I wonder what this means. The examiner was so nice and the horse was so sedated I don't think I could've possibly done badly. But... horses hey? :D
