  • Here's a video featuring a few things I was told prior to moving to Grenada for vet school (in a light-hearted way). Some things weren't necessarily a myth, but they turned out not quite to be true. Some things were right on.
    Also to the Grenadians that follow my page: I hope I don't seem to complain or dislike your country because I love it here. It's a learning experience to me as I expand my knowledge in a country that's not my own. I appreciate all the advice you guys give me and insight I get.

    About me: My name is Brittney Kilgore. I was born and raised in Atlanta, GA and am an alumni of the University of Georgia (UGA). I am currently a veterinary student at St. George’s Univeristy. SGU is located on the Caribbean island of Grenada. Although I’m a vet student now, I’ve been a vet tech for years. As I achieve my DVM, I’ve started this channel to document and share my life. I hope to oneday practice small animal / feline medicine. Until then, hope you enjoy my journey!

    Awww thanks lol I’m accepting that “Grenadian people are nice” compliment because I consider myself one of those nice ones. I’m glad you’ve been enjoying your time in Grenada 🇬🇩 😊
    Yeah we have lots of supermarkets but IGA has the most things foreigners will want (SOG foods does as well but they’re pretty far away from SGU). And food is so dang expensive here! You say you understand the prices. Girl I respect you because I’ve lived here most of my life, and I still don’t understand the prices. They need to be cheaper man.

    In the USA during summer when it is hot there is a high level of humidity which is suffocating. In Grenada the trade winds are very cooling. The heat in the USA is worse. Your friend from Arizona is correct. The breeze coming from the mountains also cools the heat.

    Hey Brittney great video I would love for my girls to visit my place of birth but they heard of the hot weather and the mosquitoes they refuse hopefully I can convince them for

    Fun tip if you go to the "Indian stores" as we call them you get the flat 2.7XCD to 1 US. They import a lot so they will take it. Try not to spam it though.

    How big is your class? Is it less than 150?

    • @BrittneyKilgore
      @BrittneyKilgore  4 года назад +2

      My class started at about 120 and we're down to about 93. (Drop due to a couple of transfers, but mostly decels which is where you fall into the term behind. I think we've loss less than 3 due to failing). My roommate who was in the next term after me had about 150 in her class. However labs are still condensed down of course
