Anatomy and Physiology

I'm currently taking an online anatomy and physiology course and I'd be lying if I pretended not to LOVE it despite the hours of studying that it requires. But it's really fascinating and the online format provides a great opportunity for my classmates and I to share all of our medical histories with each other over the internet (I nearly jumped for joy when we got to the blood unit and I could flaunt my expertise on the perils of ITP and other forms of thrombocytopenia).

It's now almost the last week of class and we've moved on to the gastrointestinal unit. Considering my penchant for discussions of the bodily variety, I was very surprised to learn I did not want to read about how often my classmates have diarrhea (this might relate to the fact that I sort of dislike the majority of my classmates). And I should probably apologize for writing this blog, but as I learned in class...most people actually love to talk about all the awesomely funny and gross things their bodies do! So I will just do it here. And you don't have to read it if you don't want (except you, Kelsey).
