Going so fast!

Semester 2 is going so fast!, it's scary to think that i'm already half way through it. I'm just reflecting on my experiences here while being at university and it's amazing what I've learnt.

I think socially I am a better person, I am more confident, I enjoy myself much more and university has opened up much more oppurtunities for me to develop my skills in the job world.

Sports

Recently I've been getting much more times getting chosen for the first team of Lacrosse, although Study Abroad lectures often conflict with the game time so I cannot go, which is annoying but I suppose it's a nescary sacrifice!.

I've been going gym much more often and am beginning to enjoy it, I always thought it was superfacial but there really is a good feeling going with friends to lift weights and you get a feeling of self betterment

Next month i'm entering the Born Survivor which is a 10km run for Cystic Fibrosis, that probably will be hard as i'm not much of a long distance runner!, so I may get training myself up for that soon!.

Academics

My maths assignments are producing high marks, my Human Biology course i'm doing well in. It's just the Genetics and Evolution module I think I am struggling most in at the moment and there is another examination for that this thursday which I'm not looking forward for! But I will be revising loads for it. I may hold off going out until thursday to make sure I'm in shape for it!.

In Human Biology in my lab this week we got to perform a blood test to determine blood types which was interesting and we also performed a urinalysis.

My study abroad module I am finding a bit easy and boring in lectures but I am enjoying researching the Canadian culture and progressing through my application. I have chosen my modules for Mathematics and Human Biology at Guelph now. (Second year we get optional modules! :D, so I feel like i'm making my degree) I am taking Applied Differential Equations & Linear Algebra for Mathematics and for Human Biology I'll be taking Population Genetics and a Neuroscience module, Which I had to consult my subject tutors about and get them to approve it, I've enjoyed the process as it's helped me learn more about my next modules and helped me look more at the Canadian education system.

So there will be plenty to look forward to in the future!

Thanks for reading!, I'll upload another one next week.
