Mountains Out of Molehills

I've been out of touch with the real world lately, apologies, friends and family, because we had two weeks with back to back big tests in Biochem and Histology. Nasty buggers but we slogged through it! Certainly felt like we were making mountains out of tiny little molehills of information that we won't have to recall until boards and then never again after that. Minutiae, but currently it is important minutiae. So it goes. Cram it in your brain, regurgitate on the test, move on to cram more things into your brain. I found I am forgetting regular English words, phrases, points of grammar, things like that. Which is a little weird. So if I sound even more awkward talking with you, please forgive me.
I'm very much looking forward to Thanksgiving and Christmas. A break from this marathon will be so much appreciated!
Things to note: if you know anyone in med school, they will love receiving homecooked goodies, anything, cookies, bread, leftovers! Just not having to cook is a super duper treat and having something tasty that you can't make yourself is even better! So thank you Mom, thank you Christy, and thank you Brad!
