The life of Brett Burtenshaw


I decided that the last few posts were a lot of my adventures and I wanted to show you a little of what Brett does here in and out of school.

A normal day consist of waking up at 5:45. Before we head off to school we shower, eat breakfast, read scriptures and pray.

Brett will either have class or spend his whole morning studying and media sight ( watch his class online) his lectures later in the day. We eat lunch around noon, then more studying.

Dinner is at 5 every day and then headed back to school for labs, TA sessions, PBL study groups or just some plain old studying.

This is Brett at a Lab Demo. They go in the Cadaver lab and listen to what another student just learned about the muscles, nerves, etc. on the Cadaver. 

Brett studies a lot in the PBL room #4 with his friends David and Erick. They have to reserve these rooms in advance and lately it has been difficult to get one due to it's getting a little crowded here. The PBL rooms are usually freezing cold, sometimes you will see people wrapped in sweaters and blankets in these rooms. Brett likes that they are so cold he says it keeps him awake while he studies.





In between studying we still get to have fun! We took a walk on the Beach a few days after Hurricane Omar caused a mess on the Beach, the fence Brett is standing by used to be a real fence with pickets; they are gone now. 



Brett Plays on the 5th semester football team here and he is AWESOME!  He is #2 and scored 3 of the six touch downs in the game yesterday. Two of Bretts Touch downs were in overtime. The funny thing about yesterdays game is that he was playing against his own semester. After the game some of the second semester people were joking with him beating his own semester.




At the culture show this lady sang a love song in German to Brett. She was singing the song and asked if there was any guy out there who knew German. I was excited! Brett would have never gone up if I hadn't given his Language skills away then the people around us started cheering for him to go so he was a good sport and went. The video is a good one but I think it is too long to upload on blogger. It was really funny. He looked cute up there!


Brett is really working hard and doing well in school. I am so proud of him and thankful for him.

I have THE BEST HUSBAND in the world! He is the Best Best Friend. I am a really lucky girl! :)
