#yearoftheABH (Part 2)

The year that I get shit done!

2014 has definitely... DEFINITELY... been an interesting year and we're like, what? Two months in? Really? I swear days have been flying by... I mean I've already had university orientation. Oh dear God I've already had university orientation?!

You know how school students get all enthusiastic for school after a long break? Yeah well I had that enthusiasm but I've seen my e-mails and the workload for week 1 is already freaking me out! WHAT ON EARTH IS A RETROPERITONEAL ORGAN?! No seriously I need an answer before Thursday, thanks!

Anyway, I'm going to have to get back up to speed with what it's like to be a student otherwise I definitely won't pass the assessment found in Week Three. Week. Bloody. Three. WHY ON EARTH WAS I SO ENTHUSIASTIC?!
Naw, I kid... I'm still extremely excited for university. New place, new people, new routine... It's so appealing! I've already toured most of the campus and it's really spacious in comparison to school grounds.

So how'd orientation go?

Glad you asked!

So my course introduction was given in one of the medical school's lecture theaters in order to seat the large amount of students. God damn there were a lot of students. Roughly 3,300 over three campuses. Of course, being the social butterfly that I am I took the very far left back hand corner to myself. Off to a great start, if I do say so myself!

Now the orientation itself...? UTTERLY BORING! Not worth typing out details! I say that because it was indeed a boring orientation... HOWEVER, it still contained valuable information about my course. They covered things like where we will be performing practical experience, what our uniforms look like (red and black- nothing special), what hospital placement will be like and so forth.

I'm getting ahead of myself but they said that they could place you on night shifts at hospitals and you just have to hack it in order to pass the course. Can't wait to be that guy who gets stuck on night shifts. It's not like I even like to sleep anyway.


So back to the orientation... Oh yeah! They give every new student a gift bag full of goodies such as energy drinks, junk food, coupons and condoms! Essential items for every student!

...I fucking love junk food.

So boom! Two months into the #yearoftheABH and we've had a taste of university life! I'm trying to think of anything particular I want to share but I prefer to keep most things on the down low... Until I at least have reason to share.

Take care all 3 people who read this blog!

OH WAIT YEAH I BUSTED MY LUNG AGAIN WHOOPS. I got sharp, shooting pains up my right arm while out yesterday so I went to the hospital and they found out my lung collapsed again. I hope it doesn't interfere with my university course or soccer. I'm a magnet for trouble, I swear!
