Weekend chill

Man, I'm getting slack in updating this blog.. Past 2 weeks has been crazy in the university equine rotation. Starting at bout 730 am till bout 6pm daily, with treatments at night on certain days..Just this morning I had to give 2 hourly checks and meds(10pm,12 am, 2am, 4am...) on a miniature horse foal that is hospitalised for colic.. and her fluids keep stuffing up, so most visits took about an hour to sort it out. Yep, I don't have to explain any further!

Oh well, the next two weeks should be much more relaxed now that I've got the equine rotation out of the way (well not entirely.. still have a test that I need to resit)

Ok ok, now for some exciting updates.. Firstly, I went on a "field trip" with my lecturer/senior vet together with 2 others to ultrasound 2 horses. One of them was Musket, Makybe Diva's little brother! I just found out that he was sold for a whopping $2.5 million aussie dollars ! (which is an Australian record according to wiki) Man, his vet must be having a pretty intense career.. But yea, it's not everyday that you get to swab alcohol on a $2.5 horse's chest.. thought that I'll share it with you guys..

Secondly, I managed to book return tickets to Melbourne for $10! That's even cheaper than taking a cab to the airport from Sydney.. I owe this to Jetstar's 3rd birthday sale.. well, the tickets were just $3 one way ($2 credit card surcharge). Also bought the one way tick to tassie from Melb for the same price, am now looking for cheap flights for the return back to melb. I'll be looking forward to this super low budget trip of mine!

Gonna chill a bit at the moment.. but still gotta study and prepare for the next subrotation on monday.. here we go!
