change of mood?

I feel like re-entering my blog as I'm getting back into the swing of lectures and studying again. The past three months have been filled first with finals, then with holidays, then with hospital time. Now that things feel back to normal (class, tutorials, etc) I feel like I can start writing again. Not much to say at the moment just thought I'd fill in the dead space a bit. Yesterday we had a practical skills session on rectal exams and I was able to practice the best way for my stubby little fingers to feel what they can up someone's bum. Not the nicest thing to talk about (or do!) but definitely practical I'd say. What it made me think about? If you have long skinny fingers you might be a better doctor. Or, maybe practice can make up for it. hmmm

On a more exciting note, we had snow this week that stuck around for a couple days and it really feels like winter. Snowball fights and snowpeople everywhere you look! I spent a few evenings laying bed watching the snowfall and it was gorgeous. I like it but for some reason I'm feeling like I miss home a little bit more than usual. Not sure what thats all about.
