Well, in the middle of spring quarter now, and busy as ever. I've finished my clinical rotations for the spring quarter already, and they were great. I really like the fact that we get to work with our professors in a clinical setting, in addition to seeing them in the classroom. It really helps me integrate the class material.
My classes this quarter aren't quite like the last two quarters, which is making it a bit more challenging. For the first two quarters we had 3 classes that basically followed along with each other. Now, our classes are a little bit more separated, but of course they are all tied to PT. This quarter, we have to take Ortho: Upper Extermity, Pathophysiology, Physical Agents, Neuroscience, and Motor Learning. I'm really enjoying all of it. The only thing is, I wish I knew what field I wanted to go into after graduation. We'll see what happens though. That's it for now.
Still here, still studying...
This is my journey to becoming a Physical Therapist. Hopefully it will provide answers to those who are also considering Physical Therapy.

Midterms Winter 2013
Winter midterms are upon us here at Drexel, and wow! For the next 4 weeks I have 2 assignments or tests due every week. This is crazy!
Last week, most of our classes were canceled as our professors were at Combined Sections Meeting (CSM). CSM is a meeting of APTA where all the sections are invited. There are education programs as well as networking opportunities throughout the week. More information can be found at the Combined Sections Meeting (CSM) part of the APTA's website. (Hopefully next year I'll be able to go) Unfortunately, that meant that this week, we have to make up for those classes we didn't have last week. It's hard to believe we are already in the 4th week of the quarter. Finals will be upon us in no time.
On a very exciting note, I've decided to apply for on of my clinical rotations in Italy. This is planned for Fall 2014, which seems like a long way away, but given as fast as the first two quarters have gone, I'm sure it will be here in no time at all. I'll provide more information about later. Right now I've gotten the OK from my clinical advisor here at Drexel to apply to the program, and I'm waiting on one more piece of information before I send in my application.
Other than that, not much has been happening. Its just been class and studying for me, and that's what I see in my near future...
