Studying, Studying, Studying!

This week is a real killer as I have my lab exam today, my palpation exam tomorrow and my final exam Thursday and Friday.  I pretty much don't have a real life at this present moment and will not have one until Friday afternoon at which point my third quarter will be over!  That means NO, I repeat NO, studying this coming weekend!  I'm not even sure that I remember what that's like ;)  Anyways, here's just a teeny glimpse at what I'm studying this wonderful Monday morning:
These are the artery paths for the dog, horse, and cow abdomens which we have to know for our exam today.  It shows where each artery comes from and then what part of the abdomen it is supplying.  For example: The gastroduodenal artery comes from the hepatic artery which comes from the celiac artery which comes from the aorta.  The gastroduodenal artery in the dog then splits into the right gastroepiploic artery and the cranial pancreaticoduodenal artery.  So, that's the path, never mind what organ each supplies blood to!  Anyone want to trade places?

I agree with Heidi! As much as you try to explain some of your schooling, it just goes right over my head! :) Not meant for me...
