We had Monday off for Labor Day, a Physiology exam on Tuesday, and an Anatomy exam on Thursday. Anatomy took up all of my time so I didn't get caught up on anything for this week. That is very bad, considering that we have three exams this week.
If that wasn't bad enough, I had to spend the weekend in Sodom and Gomorrah. The Grad Student Basketball campout was this weekend. All the grad students have to camp out for three days in order to get tickets to the Basketball games. The days were filled with booze, games associated with drinking, scantily glad women, and vulgar language. It was not a good environment and I hated just about every minute of it. They don' let you sleep because they have "check ins" all through the night.
I was able to study most of the day on Saturday. There was one other LDS student in my group as well as two other girls who weren't drinking. We all studied together. I am not near as prepared for the Monday exam as what I would like to be, so I plan on getting up very early tomorrow morning and getting in a few hours before the test.
I wish that there was someway to explain this campout thing so that you could get a better idea of what it was like, but there just isn't. Suffice it to say, I am strongly considering not doing it next year, even if it means no Duke Basketball games.
Here are some pics...
This is the tent part of the campout.
My tent was also pitched on the hill that I am standing on.
This is one of the RV parking lots, just above the hill.
The only bathrooms available for 2000 people.
Waiting in line to check in.

Very interesting. It wasn't what I pictured at all. Does that mean you didn't get tickets or do you have to wait to find out?
