Herbal and Horticultural Soc.

Today was the first meeting of the Herbal and Horticultural Soc. which has been set up by the second year Herbal Science students. It was a really fun meeting and I got to know our mentors. As part of the society we're going Ice Skating at Christmas, having dinner in a few weeks time and going to Ballymaloe House to see the herb garden and have lunch at some stage as well.
I found talking to the second years very uplifting...apparently EVERYONE struggles at Chemistry in the first semester. They are a very cool bunch of folk and I'll be very happy to get to know them better and pick their brains as the time goes by.
We, as a society, also plan to do some fun fund raising activities like making herbal concoctions, and having some very interesting guest speakers in.
I'm definitely going to convince more of the class to get involved.
