So there are a couple other things worth mentioning from the week. The first is from tuesday animals prac. i'm normally not a fan of pracs unless we're going to the zoo, but this one was not bad. We did mammal identification, and that involved microscopes and trying to match patterns. our profs had also laid a bunch of animals skeletons, so it was pretty cool

Kangaroo, Wallabee, Padimelon, something smaller

Echidna, weird beaky head on reptile body

even the skeleton of the echidna is a little bit ridiculous. so we stayed there for like an hour and a half and then called it a day pretty early. much better than running titrations for hours
Scmidty tried us to all go to Uni Rugby practice on thursday. only scmidty, ziggy, julio, and I ended up going. after a little bit of feeling awkward about not knowing anyone, it was actually quite fun. the actual level of working out was a little harder, but the quality was much higher, especially when we got to game stuff. there were enough people to actually have two teams of 15 playing on a whole field. i had one good run and a couple tackles, didn't embarrass myself in any way. my back's a little soar, but nothing too bad. It was a good time. too bad i didn't start going to those practices sooner
