I woke up this morning without a worry in the world. No material. No exam. No, well, nothing. I have a genuine one day break and so far I have spent half of it sleeping. I had almost forgotten that I had a blog for a while. One can really get caught up in studying the gluteus maximus. So much has happened the past two weeks so I had to look through the pictures to remember :-)
On February 25, it was a Monday. A freaking Monday. And the school plans to celebrate something called Beach Bash. I thought it was inconsiderate to plan a fun occasion on a Monday, but whatever, I got a free t-shirt. When contemplating whether or not to go, I thought "I have way too much stuff to study for my exam in 2 weeks... I don't have time for that!" So I did what my conscience told me to do, and it said, "Nick, you're cheap. Go get the free BBQ and t-shirt." Who could fight with that logic? Here are some pictures of the beach that got bashed:
The long walk down the beach...
Looks dangerous!
Looks like fun!
The social gathering
I often forget to open my eyes,
and sometimes I'm glad I do.
Waiting for the green flash.
FIRE! it was probably 20 feet tall
Free BBQ chicken, twas declicious

After beach bash, I walked back with Stephanie and Ron, and spent several hours studying immunology. I have to say that this was one of the most productive study sessions I have had in a long time. Toward the end,things got goofy.
Ron, the immunology guru.
One of these will be on the test,
I only pray it's not the last one,
That might be uncomfortable.
Later that week a few of my friends decided to take a study break and hang out on the roof of my apartment.

Last week Friday I played my weekly hockey game and we won yet again boosting our record to 4-1
I had a lot of fun as always and we won. I scored 7 goals : ) Here is a view of the rink (the game after ours)
:-)
This week we won again, advancing our record to 5-1. After out game, my team split into 2 and we played against ourselves. One of the most fun things I can do on the island.
This little fellow and his friends have been creeping on me in the shower.
cute little guy.
One of the last review sessions before the exam, a friend Jamie decided to show us his capture.
This is the son of my buddy Matt, he likes chocolate. A little too much.

After the exam, I hung out with Stephanie and the only thing I wanted to do was something mindless and here is the result.
I also had the desire for something sweet, yum.
After my sherbet, I made my way to the pool
And met another puppy
And hung out with my buddy, he also loves jell-o
Matt is going to land on the beach ball.

This has been fun to write, and I have enjoyed some parts about being in Dominica. The best part is the people I have met, followed by the stuff I have learned. Hopefully I can keep a good run going.
Thanks for reading :-)
