Shanna's Beloit Life

It is hard to believe that another weekend is over! Only two more weeks until Thanksgiving, and only three and a half weeks until finals *gulp*. I still have so much to do before the semester is over!

Last week was the American Association of Colleges of Osteopathic Medicine came to Beloit. This included a presentation on how to apply to an osteopathic medical program and we also got to meet a bunch of admissions representatives from various osteopathic schools and chat with them about the programs. While I find osteopathic medicine to be very interesting and agree with the basic principles of it, I still think I want to get a regular MD, not a DO (the degree for osteopathic medicine). But it was really cool to have the opportunity to explore that path.

Today we had our first snowfall of the year! I know that I will soon be annoyed with the snow, but the first few are always really pretty and nice to me. I can't imagine living somewhere where it doesn't snow at least a few times a year.

This weekend was also opening night of "The Importance of being Ernest" which the theater department here is putting on. Though I did not get a chance to see it this weekend, I hope to see it Next weekend. "The Importance of Being Ernest" has a special place in my heart, as it is the first show I ever saw at APT (a theater company in Spring Green, Wisconsin) when I was seven or eight. I now go to spring green at least once a summer to see a play.
