when vet schools decide on their cost of attendance they should include a budget line for all of the wild ailments your own pets will get when you’re in school

movies have never been the same since discovering that movie theatre popcorn triggers my migraines

It’s ok to put the phone down.

How old do I have to get before I stop crying every time I watch a performance of In The Heights?

i just love vet med

every time I go to the midwest I have an absolutely lovely time

it’s a sleep token summer

when I let him win he immediately brings the toy back to me, stares, and nudges it towards me gently until I grip it again. if I don’t do it right he’ll demonstrate how to grab it and then put it down again, nudging it towards me until I do it how he thinks it should be done

convinced my dog thinks I’m bad at our tug game because I let him win

rewatching greys anatomy while going through a summer of doing surgical training for the first time is a perfect combination

West Virginia is the prettiest state with the kindest people and it deserves way more love and attention than it gets

I love being back in the south primarily because Publix’s mountain bread exists

i miss the storytime era of YouTube

to the developers in my hometown who cannot leave a single piece of land alone: get out of my swamp (literally and figuratively)

this is a hot take but i think getting a very high energy puppy is the best thing i did when starting vet school

not only has he been the best companion on the harder days, he’s kept me active when it would’ve been easy to drown in school, and training is a great built in hobby

As evacuations are ordered, it’s important to remember that it is a heavy decision for many to leave, not knowing when/if they’ll be able to return or what state their home will be in when they return. Evacuations are important, but they are not easy, logistically, physically, or mentally. Be kind.

Bakers always say the secret ingredient is love, but I’m pretty sure it’s butter.

I’m the person I am, and going to be the doctor I will be one day, because of the kindness of others and I’ll always be thankful to those that have been a part of my journey.

One thing that never ceases to amaze me is how kind people have been to me in the veterinary field. The amount of times people have gone out of their way (when they’re always already busy) to explain something to me, let me practice something, or to answer my questions is truly heartwarming.

it also feels equally weird to say that i’m a vet student, as i’ve basically been dreaming of that my entire life and it still feels unreal that i’m really here

It’s been six months now, but it still feels weird to not say “I work in education” when someone asks what I do

now that I’m going on my seventh year in higher education, i’ve realized i associate Christmas music with the stress of finals

Thank you! This is one I definitely would’ve gotten wrong 🥲

the scariest part of vet school is finally having to say words out loud that i’ve only read before

instagram captions are easy when you just use song lyrics like you’re posting on tumblr in 2013

the best part of Bluesky is getting new anthropology and veterinary articles on my feed 24/7

they’re playing Wicked songs on the radio now

i saw them live back in 2004 before they hit it big and sold out

driving at night in the midwest in the early summer while listening to the emo music of the region > almost any other experience

staring at the ceiling listening to the entire aaron west and the roaring twenties discography… this feels like the only right way to do this

When people say Drake is playing Chess it reminds me of how few people know how to play Chess.
