Postcards to Ulay is a fantastically crafted film, and completely deserving of second place in TropFest.
It is also heartbreakingly sad and hauntingly beautiful -Â a love story of galactic proportions between master and dog.
When I saw this last night it stopped me in my tracks, and I think it will affect all of you in a similar way, so sit down for 4 minutes and watch this story about the dedication of a dog owner separated from his best friend.
when you finish a paper just before the deadline and have no time to edit
Today in the Australian Senate a committee had a serious ridiculous discussion about bee semen and sex explosions.
You really just need to watch it.
dear vetblr, medblr, studyblr and all other lovely people
Does anyone have any life hacks, survival guides, tips, etc. for writing a thesis?
Write absolutely everything down. Everything you think of, read, or hear.
When it comes to writing, get your thoughts down and then go back and write. itâs important that you get everything on paper before worrying about it being perfect.
Also, you will write a million drafts!
Also write down WHERE you read/heard things, so you can go back and reference them later. Use endnote or other referencing software - it will save your life
Thank you! :D we use refworks for referencing. At day 3 Iâm beginning to see just how important it is to write EVERYTHING down..
And just to say it louder for the people in the back ;) ENDNOTE IS WORTH EVERY CENT. Seriously. If youâre writing a thesis with 30+ papers it is a million times easier to use Endnote because it saves you the 35% of the time youâd be spending on citations. Citations take so long!! Which is why Endnote is a lifesaver.
I take it for granted that everyone has endnote (luckily our uni pays for ours) and it is a life saver!
Plus it has online syncing now so you can e on any device/computer anywhere and have access to all of your references and PDFs. I couldnât imagine writing without it.

One of the great things about being a Vet Student on tumblr is that there are plenty of us!
This is me and Jessica from @vetstudent-life at the Gala dinner at the end of a fantastic Australian Vet Students Conference in Adelaide.
Earlier in the day we got to go kayaking with dolphins and visit AMWRRO to see the facilities where they rehabilitate all kinds of marine wildlife.
This vintage veterinary book was published in 1911 and is called Dr. David Robertsâ Practical Home Veterinarian, written and compiled by Dr. David Roberts, President of the Dr. David Roberts Veterinary Co. Dr. David Roberts also had is own line of numerous tonics, creams, and medications which are all pictured in the back of the book.
If you are into drinking games, get this book and take a drink every time his full name is mentioned. Youâd be toast after the first few pages, haha. But it does have some great old photos and illustrations! Pictured are a few of my favorites.Â
While in the Eastern Highlands of Papua New Guinea we caught a male Superb Bird of Paradise (Lophorina superba).
Our regular photos for documentation didnât do him justice so we made a nature box for him to take some quick footage and photos. Youâll notice the iridescence on his breast, and the black feathers hanging to the side. Together, those are used in his mating display:
You also might have noticed that he has a deformity in his left leg. We think this was an old break, but it hadnât been holding him back as we had heard him displaying for the female in the area that we caught him in.
My honours thesis is taking a turn for the dramatic:
For all of natural history there has been an immunological arms race afoot. Eukaryote and prokaryote have been at war between and amongst themselves since their genesis. One of the great weapons in this unending conflict was developed by organisms in the Fungi kingdom. Chemicals that would inhibit the growth of bacteria in the competition for limited resources. Bacteria would soon evolve a resistance to these chemicals, and the battle would continue on.
Advancing through history many millions of years, and the same battle for resources is taking place on an agar plate in a laboratory in London. In this particular battle, the fungus wins, and Alexander Fleming is there to witness it. Â
Your Dog Ate Weed a song for every vet. nurse, tech and student who has worked in emergency!
What was the lowest grade in vet school that you got? I'm sorry for asking but do you think a B is alright on a math exam for a veterinary tech? I feel so stupid
I canât remember the lowest grade Iâve gotten in an exam would be. but my guess is that itâd be pretty close to 50.5% Thereâs a pre-occupation with grades which I think can be very unhealthy for aspiring students. You should study to know the content not to get a grade. Yes, grades can be used to determine wether you pass or fail something, or wether you get into a course - if you study to understand the topic, then everything else will follow.
Also, there is this quote which might help:
âIf you donât get the top score that doesnât mean you are worthless, it only means that you have more to learn and learning is something you do your entire life.âDr Fredrik Velander Good luck with your future maths tests!

What I wish it was like:
What it is really like:
I have no words.
i really want to be a vet but i am really terrified of dissecting animals!! especially cats and dogs and other pets, because i keep stressing out about how this could have been someone's pet, or mine if i didnt adopt him, etc. any tips for getting over that? and are people generally respectful?
Dissecting an animal can be a confronting experience for many people, especially if it is a cute animal, or looks like a pet of yours. Most dissection animals are surrendered or feral animals which havenât been adopted, so yes, there is a chance that they could have made wonderful pets for somebody.
Whatâs important to remember is that these animals werenât adopted... the alternative to them being euthanised and dissected would be living in a cage, or in an overcrowded environment. No life is not inherently worse than a bad life for the animal. We also need to remember that these animals are often unsuitable for rehoming due to behavioural or medical conditions in a lot of circumstances.
By dissecting animals, and learning more about their anatomy we are equipping ourselves with knowledge that will save countless lives into the future.
People are respectful of the animals and any inappropriateness of behaviour is not tolerated at all by supervisors. At Vet school you are training to be a professional and to be an advocate for animals, and that starts from when you walk through the door on the first day.
I have heard of students conscientiously objecting to the use of cadavers (especially greyhounds) however I think that a persons ability to understand anatomy and surgery without this experience is limited.
Lace Monitor (Varunus varius) I came across on a walk this week. Stunning, scary, and so huge.
What are some of your favourite animals? :)
My favourite animals are:
1. Humans - Honestly, look at us. What other animals are capable of language, culture, and relationships to the level that we are?
2. Orcas - if they didnât have giant fins theyâd probably give us a run for our money... one day! Plus they are huge and graceful and kinda scary...
3. Dogs - mostly for cuddling and playing with.
Do you have any pets?
I donât have any pets - I canât afford them!
If Iâm going to tell people to only get animals they can afford then I had better walk the walk. Growing up I did have dogs, cows, the odd lamb, horses, cats, and chooks. Plus my housemate has a cockatiel who is kinda cool...
