such a familarly hated time of the year strangely already tinged with a hint of reminiscence

Sweet As
The New Zealand trip was awesome. I experienced some of the most amazing moments of my life there. It's been so long since I've seen and done so many new things, the whole trip was absolutely wonderful. What's struck me is that that half of the fun of the trip came from the people that we met along the way. The friendly receptionist, the funny bus driver, the interesting backpacker, the helpful service staff, the cute skydiving instructor, the sexy french waiter, the smiles that people on the street greet you with. It's brought about a whole new meaning to travelling which i had not considered before and makes me almost ready to travel out there on my own.
The only downside of such a good holiday is when you come crashing back down to reality. It really feels like i've left vet school behind a million years ago when it was really only two weeks. I feel like ive forgotten everything and even feel slightly anxious about going back to uni. Feelings of inadequacy fill my mind and I wonder how is it that I am ever going to be a competent vet at this rate of forgetfulness.
This trip was supposed to be a well deserved break and a recharge for the run to the finals. I really want to be able to channel it into motivation rather than dreariness and the longing for fun and inconsequential jobs. Let's hope we get there.
Thing of the day!~ Definitely all things kiwi.
