First Day of Freshers Week

First day of Freshers Week today. I got poked a few times for blood for antibody tests for every vaccine/illness known to man. The phlebotomist was very poor (Yes! Like the last time!) but the lovely (male) nurse stepped in a did a good draw the third time around. Queued for miles for everything imaginable and had to register without the grant money (which or course did not come in on the date it was required!) Luckily I have a month to get it in.

Tomorrow is the first day of lecture in the Medical Lecture Theatre ( as opposed to the lowley BioMedSciences Theatre of the past). The 2.5 hour lecture is entitled "An Introduction to Medicine". Hhhhhhm. This is the part where I pull out the pathology book and look at a few gruesome pictures and show them to surrounding students to pass the time.

To come Wednesday: an introduction to the Gross Anatomy Lab. I wonder how many 19 yr old girls will pass out at the sight of their first cadaver?
