I made it! With two dogs, some clothes, a few dishes and a strong desire to drive myself crazy for four years! I will be living in a little town called Notasulga–the name derived from the Creek words for “many teeth.” Wonder what that’s all about….
My first engagement with most of my classmates–the class of 2016–was a chance to meet some of the upperclassmen and introduce ourselves. And we received our lab coats! With my name embroidered on one side and the DVM insignia on the other, I 
think it has convinced me that this is really happening! Tomorrow morning we gather for a team-building experience at the 4H camp. Because of this, I had to make arrangements to board Nikki and Nubbs. I really hated to do this since it was their first night in Alabama and I’m sure they are totally confused as to what is going on. I miss them tonight.
I need to turn in so that I can get some rest before I head out with a bunch of younger students tomorrow. Check back sometime…I’m sure there will other ramblings.
