Happy Halloween!



I am not sure whether or not my school planned it this way, but ironically we begin our anatomy lab tomorrow on Halloween. We had an official "Meet Your Cadaver" activity a couple of weeks ago. It was surreal. Our first patient is a 70 year old man named Juan. Tomorrow we begin by dissecting his back. They are having us start on the back because it is less personal. But I think that's a little misleading since we have to begin the lab with a full physical exam. Trust me, we will know Juan better then his own mother. Wish me luck as I try to block out of my mind the images from "Silence of the Lambs" when Buffalo Bill is making the flesh suit.

I hope you have fun! I made up a verb for what you'll be doing for the next long while : Juanozni.

Now you can say, "Bye Bekah, I'm off to Juanozni."

or

"Nem szeretek Juanozni. Az nem tetszik."

HI YOU!! Can't remember if I wrote you back last Octish when you sent the email. I was so so so SOOOO stoked to hear from you. Been trying to find your email for ages. I had no idea we are living so close to eachother. I would love to see you and Greg. Maybe this spring/summer we can head up and say HI. Andrew has a bro in NJ and we go up a few times a year to hang with him and his fam. I hope all is well and am so glad you wrote!!!
