What's new at NU?

Greetings from Northwestern, bloggers-

A lot has happened here since I last posted on Dummyline a week or two ago. Classes are now in full swing- in fact, I had an organic chemistry test this morning- not much fun, but it's good to get it over with and be able to enjoy the weekend.

I also recently interviewed, was offered, and accepted a job here as a sports medicine aide. It's actually a fairly exclusive position, and I feel very fortunate to be able to take part in the program. Although I don't know all of the specifics, the SMA program mainly involves the sports medicine staff training students to do emergency and basic physical therapy and injury prevention as well as observe surgeries and doctor appointments. No it's not that glamorous- but I do think it would provide invaluable experience to any aspiring doctor (such as myself). And being on the sidelines during an NU football game is pretty neat, too.

Not much else to really talk about. I am looking forward to the Bat-Mitzvah celebration and I will see you all soon.

here is a short preview of the montage- enjoy:
