that's right bitches!!!!! Florida beat Georgia on saturday!!!!!!!!!! some of us got togther to watch the game at Marks apartment....I took some pics of us there and a beautiful Florida sunset....
Friday night was the IDP costume party at the Big House....We all dressed up and it was a ton of fun....sara and I dressed up as eachother and Jeremiah dressed up as "that guy" hahahahahahhaha...it messed with a lot of people....Aaron was a fighter pilot, Mark was Cloud from Final Fanatsy 7, and Li was the guy in the scary mask:) good times were had by all....Unfortunatly I don't have pics from the party, YET!!!!
so this week has been a loooooonnnnnnnggggggg week. I had my genetics test on tues (not talking about it) and a lot of work to do in the lab. This week I got to take out DRG's for the first time:) it was hard but interesting too! I actually got to cut the DRG's, stain them, and look at them under the microscope....they are interesting little buggers:) But I am really excited because starting monday I actually get to start on MY project. My control animals will be ready for perfusion and then I get to do some immunofluorescence on them....I never thought I would be this excited to do immunofluorescence again:) Another good thing this week was I got to go to a wine tasting which was a charity event for the arthritis foundation! That's the good thing about working at a med school...they have lots of oppertunities to participate in charity stuff. Well the gang and I were supposed to go to St. Augustine's today to enjoy the beach and take a haunted tour but the stupid hurricane ruined our plans:( off to watch some football!!!!!
Today is my second day in my first rotations lab. things are going good so far....I've read a ton on spinal cord injury and I am learning alot. tomorrow I'll be cutting DRG's and then thursday I'll be doing surgery w/ injections into the colon. I even have my own desk and my own computer in my own little lab....It feels good to be back in a lab:)
Friday was homecoming at UF and the entire town of gainesville shut down. Even classes were cancelled for the day! There was a parade at noon, soccergame, volleyball game, gator growl, and then the football game on sat. It was a good time to get the hell out of town!!!! and that's what sara and I did!!!! The sara and shelby show went on the road to Tampa to go visit sara's friend megan. We went to Ybor City which looked very simular to Bourban Street in New Orleans but the smell wasn't there! We had a wonderful time drinking Long Islands and playing pool. It was a good escape out of gainesville for the time being:) Now its time to watch football and go play in a kickball tournament. Oh its great to be a Florida Gator!!!!!!
