Things you need to hear as a Vet (Student)

This crap is hard. Don’t forget your goal and if you ever do forget it, forget it in the presence of wine and friends and snacks. Then the next morning, think about how all this knowledge isn’t only going to be helping you ace your exams, think about how it will enable you to make the best decisions for your future patients.

It’s impossible to know everything although you will feel like you should. Whether or not you try, at least know when to stop jamming in more knowledge and learn to prioritise. Somethings aren’t worth losing other things over. Don’t feel bad when you don’t know the answer to an obscure question. This profession will never stop teaching you things.

This is not glamorous and things will get messy and hard. That’s okay. Throw your scrubs in the wash after those anal glands expression and a good long shower to get all the mud out of your hair when you were wrestling cows. Then get into the sofa and get your book and study on.

Cry in the bathroom if you must. Don’t do it in front of clients or teachers. You can do it.

Stay humble and don’t get overly confident - mistakes will happen. Know what you know and what you don’t know. Be eager to learn.

Enjoy this. That feeling you get when you see people cuddle their pets when they get them back after surgery, or that relief they’ll have their animal a little while longer and it was just a scare. Be grateful for people coming to you with their pets because they care.

It’s okay to not know why you would ever want to be a vet while you’re trying to jam in over 1000 pages on anatomy or pharmacology. It’s okay to hate vet school. It’s okay to have days where you hate being a vet. But that thing right there? Inside you, somewhere halfway your spine that is pushing you forward? Keep that and nurture it. It’s you caring. Caring about the profession, about the animals, about the clients. It’s caring about being a good person and of feeling that the best way for you to do that here, on this clump of dirt, is to be a vet.
