Animals are unpredictable things, and so our life is unpredictable. It's a long tale of little triumphs and disasters and you've got to really like it to stick it.

Ups and Downs

First for the downs...

I've lost my part time job. From two weeks time, which means finances are going to be very very tight from now on. I may have to give up some of my luxuries e.g. nice food and sharing Teddy.

I'm having a crisis with regards to lack of knowledge as in three weeks I'll be on my first EMS placement, and I can no longer pull the oh but I have no clinical skills card. I have to know stuff.

The northern line on the tube is shut when I want to use it. This makes me angry as I have to get the bus which means I am liable to miss my train home this afternoon.

Now for the ups...

I am going home this afternoon to see my doggies, yay! Much needed.

Monday is halfway dinner, which means, drumroll please... I am half way through the BVetMed course. (If you're not counting the fact I've done a degree already and I've been at the RVC for a year and a half that is - counting that I'd be well over half way now!). Should be a good night, we get a posh dinner and afterparty at Sway in Holborn, Central London. Had a worrying moment when I thought I wouldn't fit in my dress last night... still need to buy nail varnish and find my black cardigan.
I'm getting my hair done on Monday as soon as I'm back from home so I should look somewhat presentable!

And this is being played... for 'oh we're halfway there, oooh oh we're living on a prayer, take my hand and we'll make it I swear...'
