School and other Blah-y-ness

[happyfish]

Yeah, so I haven't updated in a while....not much has really been happening. I mean, there's always school, school and more school. I discovered that I'm waaay to much of a perfectionist a while back. I also had a long weekend last weekend. I got Wednesday off and got to go to the library at the hospital! I only got out three books, but i was pressed for time. I was visiting Dad too. He showed us his new workshop that's being built for him (actually, it's already done) and then Mom and I changed out into scrubs and got shown around the OR. Dad introduced us to a bunch of his coworkers, mostly nurses. They all thought I was really beautiful...but it was interesting. I got to see the human liver and intestine while the human was still alive. They do operations now when they barely cut open the person, but just put these little tube things in you, with a camera so they can see what they're doing. It's all very high tech and spiffy, really. The liver didn't look to much different than that of a frog's, but I guess livers tend to look alike, as they all have the same function.
Other than that, I haven't done much. It's finally starting to cool down here, though. I no longer pay attention to the heat. It's still probably in the thirties...but being acclimatized isn't all that bad. It just will be when we go back to Canada for the winter break.
Found a new age book at the hospital library, rather surprising actually. This is such a Muslim country. I guess they probably don't care as much, or at least don't notice. Ramadan's coming up...ach. That just means Saudis honking their horns until three in the morning and me not getting a good night's sleep for a month. *sigh*
on the plus side, I do have a long weekend next week...
