for the love...

of all that is good and holy.

My brain is going to asplode. Seriously. A S P L O D E.

Pathophysiology I my lovelies... a 4 credit patho course broken into two, two week, two credit courses, the first of which I am half way thru and ready to pull my hair out over.

ACK!!! And its not that its boring, because its inCREDibly fascinating to me... but its just so MUCH. HUNDREDS of pages of reading every single day, 50-60 review questions to write up (each student gets 4-6 depending on the day) and post, and then you have to review everyone elses questions, make sure you understand the material and ask questions if you dont... AND there is a quiz on the previous day's lesson each and every day of the week.

I am going to do my best this afternoon and tomorrow to get a day or two ahead on my content questions so I can dedicate more of the day to reading and reviewing the text rather than searching for the answers to the specific questions I'm assigned.

We just finished the renal system and we're jump into cardiovascular stuff right away on Monday. I want to say I'm learning a lot, but I suppose we'll see how much I actually retain once we're into clinicals in January.

I seriously need to do more running tho... may actually help me keep the sane. ;)
