I thought I would share a few thoughts on the anatomy and physiology courses I took the past two semesters. I had an *awesome* professor. He was brilliant, enthusiastic, fair, and he had a wealth of knowledge to share. I went to class Tuesday and Thursday nights both semesters. It was a great way to get back into the groove.
The first semester, we learned the bones and muscles and about several body systems. A highlight was dissecting a cow eye ball. Did you know cow eye balls are HUGE and contain a lot of fat around them??? I have a feeling A&P has a lot to do with my unwillingness to eat too much red meat, but that is another story for another day. :0)
By the second semester, I made several good friends. We studied together, stressed together, memorized countless models, and spent a good hour together in a tornado lock-down at the science fair for extra credit. After our final exam a few weeks ago, the four of us went out to eat to celebrate our new (but short-lived) freedom.
A&P gave me a HUGE respect for the human body. Seriously, God's design is amazing. I knew it was, but to read about each body system in detail and know that we had not even scratched the surface of everything that's there just totally blew my mind!
Oh, and I shouldn't forget to mention I sliced my finger open while dissecting a sheep's heart. Never a dull moment. But, don't worry.....I promise I will make a good nurse. :0)
