Busy, busy...

I know it's a long time since I have updated, and Im sorry. At first when I moved to Bergen, I didn't have access to the internet for 1,5 weeks (at my apartment). I didn't really know how depended I was before that. But all the information about my school is online.

But now Im able to go online at home, and that makes everything a lot easier. I leave in a very neat apartment with a friend Lene. I got to know her when we went to Kenya together. We live very close to everything in Bergen. So Im able to walk to school and everywhere else. It's perfect!

We have started some different classes at school. So far we have cell biology, latin, medical ethics, and ex phil (philosofy)... On Tuesday we had a chance to watch the 2year students, while they were studying a real human body. People have donated their bodies after they died, and we get to work and study real human bodies. It was a weird experience just to watch the second-graders. When we start with anatomy in May we will do the same thing.

There has been so many things happening these first weeks. A lot of new things to get used to. This is a much harder study than last year, and we have a lot of different classes. So I try to study a lot so I don't get behind from the start.

We are about 160 people in my class, so it's a lot of new people. But I have already met a lot of very nice people, and made some good friends. :-)

Today we started a special CPR session. It's a class offered to medical students which is not a part of our school classes. As medical students, people almost expect you to be a doctor. To be honest, we haven't really learned that much yet! The first classes have been about cells, proteins, and cell membranes and how they are transporting different molecules. Not so much about savings someone's life.

IT's already late, but I wanted to give a little update on my life as a medical student :-)
