Friday 28th May.

The morning wasn't too bad at all.

We had coffee in the morning at Manning, and had a chat with Clare, who is one of the girls in the dissection class. It was her 21st birthday party on that evening, and she had gone out the night before and accidentally gotten drunk as she was stressed for a assignment due friday. So she was feeling a bit off, and kinda looked it too.

We then went to the museum, and had a look at the specimens again etc.

There was a discussion about organ donors and why transplants from brain dead patients occur at 3am.
Apparently it is because the hospitals are quiet, the operating theatres are available, and there is no traffic around for the ambulance to get stuck at when they deliver the organ to the recipient who is waiting on an operating table aready.

Nifty.
