Neuroanatomy most important subject!

Every prof says their subject is the most important, and neuroanatomy is no different. Dr. Caroline Hahn is our "main" professor I would say but agreeing with Jenn (my amazing and also smartest girl in our class - friend) that we're a bit wary on a prof that praises a dude who wrote a textbook..to the point of calling him God. I'm no religious person by any means but yea, a little out there for me. Other than that though, she seems like she will be an amazing professor. She sat in on our other neuro classes so she'll know exactly what we already know and go from there. And she is also a giant...6' something I'm sure of it!

I finally uploaded my pictures from the poultry farm on to my facebook if anyone is interested and I realized that I had no pictures of chickens! Not even dead ones which were common due to the cold. Did you know that organic chickens kill each other (i.e. cannabilism) more often than other chickens because their beaks are not clipped? Not sure if I already mentioned that in my last post so I'll try not to repeat. Once they taste blood...they go crazy! It reminds me of a group of piranhas that first nibble at its feast and then go into a frenzy devouring it to the bone! If you're wondering what I'm talking about, youtube a video of pet piranhas eating live mouse prey, it's a little morbid but there is absolutely nothing left of the mouse...even the bones are gone!
Here's some pictures from the farm - it was so beautiful there although I don't think the farmers appreciated it as much as I did since it meant more work for him with the animals.
