Study Groups, Study Breaks and Spring Break

The week before spring break we had a couple of tests; one which was in Theory. Theory is the most "optometristy" class we have. We are currently learning how to talk to patients, take a proper case history, how to make insurance companies happy, come up with a diagnosis based on test results and things like that. A few of my classmates and I got together for a little study group to go over charts and help each other start thinking like doctors instead of students. I managed to get a candid shot of these two:

A candid shot is difficult with Erin around, she is always posing! Our last test of the week was on Thursday, so that night the little study group got together for a little study break fun. We all made goodies and went a little overboard. There was soo much left-over! Below Erin counsels Anna in the art of posing for pictures

The last Friday of every month is the "trolley hop." All of the art galleries on main street stay open late and have free wine/beer and hors d'oeurves and it is free to ride the trolley along the way. We ended up seeing quite a few classmates also enjoying the trolley hop. This is my roommate and her boyfriend (Sorry Al this is the only pic I have of you two in a gallery!)

Walking from one gallery to the next (I just love this picture!)

After the trolley hope we stopped to get some food on Beale with some of our classmates. A great start to spring break!
