If it wasn't for the fact that I have a mock, then the actual written work is fine. Its just I have a stupid amount to learn for the mock, and I have a problem with getting my anatomy learnt

I hadn't even seen your post when I wrote that, but it's something that applies to all medics, and you do genuinely have a lot to learn.

I found the best way to learn the anatomy was to draw draw and DRAW. It's a very visuo-spatial subject. I also guess I am lucky that I can remember visual things a lot better than text...

SO far the most challenging thing in my day has been getting my chocolate out of my advent calender. I REALLY need to get a move on and do my 2(well actually 4) vac essays...

My most challenging thing was getting up before midday; now that that is done I feel the day should be easy. :yep:

I'm sorry to hear about your grandad :rip:

As you say, not doing vac work can really screw up term. I've done one essay so far, and I need to do another and a first draft of my dissertation. The essay load was 11 essays in Lent and 7 in Michaelmas due to one of my papers only offering and teaching two topics this term and the remaining six next term. So yes. Work done now will make next term considerably easier.

I'm alot like that. Its one of the reasons I enjoyed Biology. I drew diagrams of everything.

It was only about 10mins. It happened in sunlight. I thought it was rain until I saw bits were floating. I put my hand out the window and it was tiny ice crystals.

True, but your week sounded hectic and now you get a free evening to chill/sort out any stuff you need to do

Thanks. I bought flash cards to help me learn everything. I can remember things like the cranial nerves, but when it comes to naming parts of the bones or which nerve and artery supplies a muscle then thats when I come into bother.

Curses!

I've got a bad head-cold now, which is understandable given how badly I tired my body out. But its really not welcome today. I'm trying to sort out Christmas shopping. I have no idea what to get everybody. And I need to do loads of reading :sigh:

Why me?

And let us not forget, that 'Nothing' is so important that most of our universe - and the contents of a lot of people's heads - appears to be made up of it.
