exam corner 2

CRAMPED CRUX CAUSES crankiness

this is the last week of class for this block before we enter the exam week starting this wednesday...as all the other physio and biochem classes had already finished, today we started with a row of anatomy classes ONLY from morning till evening...what a mess...as all the medicos had all known, anatomy is the MOST-MUST-MEMORIZED-MODULE we had ever learnt...and for the record, we'll be having only anatomy class for the wutever left hours of class to finish wutever left topics in the syllabus...oh oh god...help me bear with it...well, as for today, i tried my best to concentrate on the first 4 hours...

the lectures went on smoothly, quietly and peacefully as always...all in all i think i managed to absorb about 70% of the lectures...however, during dissection, i was a lil bit uncomfortable...the loads kept on pouring throughout each corner of the brain cells...i tried to catch wutever i could but somehow mostly were slipping away...especially for the last half hour of the dissection...shall i say i had unconciously spiritually dwell away from the stool i stood but fortunately i gain concious right away...the lecture is just in front of me, gotta be alert somehow in case he ask wutever he had mentioned before...as always...

lecturer: blablabla...."do you understand?"

student: *nodding* "yess..."

lecturer:"what do you understand?"

student: "eeerrr" *gulp*

...and so the student had to repeat back all wutever he had tought before...

note: for this lecturer, the answer must be the exact words he had spoken...if not, he won't be satisfied till you managed to record his own sentences...tiring...*sigh*every master has his own style of teaching...

once i got back to my room, i took my shower (the weather is still HOT+DRY)...and had another cup of sugarless black coffee...and prayed...then, i finally decided to skip the other 3 hours of the next class...well, counted already, the attendance will still be above 90%...i'd rather stay in my room and study on my own...quality time is sometimes needed, rather than forcing myself going to some place my brain can't cope...and so i spent my sweet time studying alone in my room... :)

but to be mentioned here, skipping classes is like doing a sin in melaka manipal college...well, this is how bad i feel...we had to maintain 90% of attendance for the exam sake...which is of course so hard to be maintained...to resist such evil voices in ur mind, asking u to have ur own so-called chilling time rather than going to the boring sessions...IT IS HARD...talking bout LAZINESS...

compared to my previous days at school or even when doing my alevel, i'll just simply skip the class whenever i feel like doing so (i mean during the very2 stressful moments...and of course sometimes during the very2 loud devil's voice whispering in my ear)...but here, its like the biggest commitment to attend the classes...besides, if 1 class is missed, it means that u've missed a lot of useful knowledge which u wouldn't attain later on even when u r studying alone...some facts taught here aren't in books...knowledge also comes from the lecturer's readings, reseaches or experiences...that's how valuable each lecture is...

-hope this is the last time for me to reduce my attendance-

till then, bubye :)
