Student Doctor

I've been trying to be good about photo documenting all the little firsts of Jeremy's new adventure. He was so excited and secretly a little nervous about starting school. Last Monday, July 2nd, was his first day but classes didn't really begin until Friday, July 6th. Now he's already slicing up cadavers and refining his anatomy knowledge and skills. I think he's really enjoying the learning part and is just excited to be done with all the "boring orientations and presentations." He kept coming home all frustrated the first few days saying, "How many times do we need to hear how important it is to budget our financial aid?" For right now he's in class from about 8am to usually around 3pm although his schedule will keep changing as different classes begin and end (it's not like a normal semester schedule). He has also been a real trooper about riding the bus to and from school since we now share one car. It's such a blessing to be so close to efficient (and free for students) public transportation. And if he's able to catch the express bus, it only takes a few more minutes than it would driving himself. We have already saved a lot of money by not paying for gas, or the $450 parking pass! Anyways, I'll keep the pictures and stories flowing as time goes by. It seems a little surreal that we are actually here in Louisville, with Jeremy attending dental school. We've talked and dreamt about this since we were first dating and it's so exciting that it's finally here!
