Three Questions! (November 23)

Playdoh Brain Model
Here's another installment of the weekly three questions. This week is special though, it's Thanksgiving break.
1. This was a short but awesome week in Anatomy. We first got to play with Playdoh again, something I haven't done in ten years. The playdoh brain helped us identify the structures and was fun to make, I must admit. Then, on Tuesday, we dissected a real sheep's brain which was way more cool than the playdoh brain. It really didn't smell that bad. I also went to Phoenix for the break to attend a concert and football game (against my will).
2. Lately I've learned most parts of the brain and the different functional areas. I've also learned how to do U substitution in calculus, and that Frankenstein's monsters isn't as bad as everyone thinks he is.
3. Next I plan to finish all the Nervous System coloring plates and finish reading Frankenstein. I also plan to get very familiar with the Nervous System for the test.

    1. Thanks! I though the dissection was pretty fun; I probably just got used to the smell after a while. I'm liking my book, what about you?
