Week 4 of Semester 2--Injury and Repair

My apologies for the lack of a post last week--it was The Unknown's first official volleyball game.  I now remember why I stopped playing sports 10 years ago now--I sprained my finger while trying to knock the ball back over the net about halfway through the second game.  I at least got it over the net, but we still went on to lose.  Last week, I feel as though we all played much better and it showed--we won.  So far, we're 1 for 2.  :)  I'll admit--it's fun.

We had our first round of exams this week... Physiology II and Parasitology.  I didn't do as well as I had hoped, but I'm going into the next set of exams with a better idea of how to study.  I passed, but just not as well as I would like.  We have this next week free of exams, but the following week has 3--Anatomy II, Immunology, and a Parasitology quiz.  I'll definitely be studying like crazy this next week.

I coached my first flyball class yesterday--it went ok... but I definitely need experience teaching training classes, though.  It's just so hard to keep positive when the owners/handlers aren't motivated to teach the dogs.  I had one girl throw the ball, the dog showed no interest, and she sighed, saying "well, that's a waste.  I'm done."  Seriously.  If you show no interest, how do you expect your dog to?  I hope the next one goes better (and that we have the hurdles constructed properly by then).

Well, that's really about it that's been going on, so I'm going to head off to get ready for my first day of walking the school's kennel dogs.  Urgh...
