eww..

Had my first vet related club meeting and it was really good. It was for the wildlife/exotic club:) We also got free pizza and pop which never hurts. Making a couple new friends each day. Got to know a couple of the kids in first year vet this year so that's exciting -I'll actually know some people next year!! Sounds like they're going to have lots of events and I can't wait till i'm a real vet. Trying hard to get caught up on all this homework... It's been a bit hard to concentrated because Yuck, I keep finding cockroaches (almost had a heart attack when I found one in the bathroom this morning.) It's not that they're scary it's the element of surprise when you sneak up on one. Luckily I have fig, he flips the over and tries to eat them so they're pretty mangled and almost dead when I find them. It would be horrible if they could still scurry along. I LOVE my cat. So today I spent a couple of hours tracking down things to kill roaches. Got a tupperware to put all my dry food in and some moth balls (which I had to throw out cause they smelled too bad and i read they cause cancer after the fact). My friend Yvonne told me about some kind of trap where they eat the stuff in it and take it back to their nest to die so I think I'll buy some tomorrow. I also need to get some bleach to put down the drains too according to the site -yeah for living in the tropics!! The cleaning lady here is really sweet and had a cold so I gave her what was left of my vit c. She left me a whole bunch of fresh fruit on my doorstep this morning!! Some of the kids I know are thinking of going to fish friday -some kind of fish market in the next week or so. That should be fun. Very sore today from hitting the gym the last two days. Tomorrow is a hip hop class so I am excited to get back into dancing. The instructor teaching it tomorrow is the one I was working with yesterday -bambi. Can't believe how fast time gets eaten up when you're trying to be a real student and do ALL the readings and questions etc... Love you guys talk to you tomorrow
