Ding! The dreaded bellringer is over!

I am so glad to say that the oh-so-scary anatomy bellringer is over. I was so terrified of it, but it turned out to be kind-of fun...well as fun as a test can be?!? Now I am going to take the night off and it will be back to studying tomorrow. Four more exams to go and I am officially done my first semester. Wow, did that time ever fly by! Thankfully, I have adapted to the pace of the program and am finding this exam period a tiny bit less stressful than midterms. A combination of getting more comfortable, knowing what to expect, and giving up on marks (well at least I am trying!) Our class is just wonderful though, really supportive of each other which is great. It is hard to believe how far we have come in such a sort time. Looking back to undergrad, I didn't even know what the brain really looked like, let alone be able to identify all of the sulci (grooves) and gyri (bumps) on the surface and everything in between!
