Dead bodies

I just had my first anatomy lab recently and became acquainted with my own personal corpse. I was extremely worried that I would pass out or cry when I saw a dead person because I have never seen one before. None of that happened though. They were careful to cover up the person's face for now, which helped a lot. Someone they didn't look human though. The skin was a grayish color and all the parts just seemed a bit alien. I am definitely grateful for all the people who donated their bodies to help us learn, but it is a much weirder feeling cutting into a person than a mouse for research!
