I was reading entries I wrote this time last year and, at the time, I was excited about having only 3 more exams between me and Thanksgiving break. This year, it's (counting today's exam, plus online exams) 11 exams between me and Thanksgiving break. Son of a bitch.
I've been trying to study for Wednesday's Small Animal GI exam. I keep freaking about not knowing enough for the exam tomorrow. BRAIN! It is not TOMORROW! My brain has done this about 4 times since I started studying. It needs to stop. This is why brains need at least one evening off from studying before resumption.
I started Luminosity a few weeks back. Some of the games make me feel like an idiot, but overall the site makes me feel smart. They say the average user's BPI (Brain Performance Index. Essentially a measure of how you're performing overall) goes up 50% after playing 100 games. After about 90 games, mine has gone up 102%. Yay for adaptability? I'm not sure if the program is actually helping my memory, attention, etc but I don't think it's hurting anything.
I'm feeling a desperate need to do something creative and there's no time for that. I miss sewing. I was never any good at it, but it was soothing and relatively stress free. Maybe I'll do some suture practice this weekend in preparation for my GI surgery lab. It's not the same, but at least it's something.
Need to go work on the Bau's GI study guide. He has beautiful notes, terrible lecture slides, and helpful study questions. And a lovely white beard.
