"It is raw and it is so damn real you want to run away just to soak it up and take it in. The soul mate. The one you feel vibrate when they are a thousand miles away. The one you hear whisper when they think about you. The one who lets you move freely but embraces your shadow from afar. That one. The one you feel like you have known for a million years."

10 more days to pros and I'm still feeling so underprepared. Been revising neuroscience all day and just suddenly remembered that I've forgotten 50% of what I already mugged for Head & Neck. Isn't it ironic haha, remembering that you've forgotten something ._.
Anyway, just wanted to say that I'm dying :( I don't really have a problem with finishing my revision, the main problem is with actually RETAINING all the information and making sure I don't forget them for prolonged periods of time, which is quite impossible really because I'd always relied on short term memory for my previous exams :( and if you look at the entire Year 1 syllabus, the amount of stuff we need to internalize for anatomy is already enough to kill you. Then on top of that, there's physio, biochem (with about a million pathways, substrates, enzymes, products, etc.), medicine & society, and ethics.
SIGH :( On one hand I can't wait for pros to come so I can get it over and done with asap and be liberated/have my life back/have all the free time in the world to sleep/slack/eat/stone without a single tinge of guilt (oh look, the rest of the human population is already doing that! Everyone else is living the high life now and yet here we are, here I am, still buried under piles and piles of books and notes and struggling to breathe :( *CRIES*), but on the other I feel that my revision time is seriously slipping away/passing wayyyy to fast for comfort :(
On another note, I'm moving out of my Type A room for good next monday! Really kind of sad about this :( Not moving out of PGP yet though, extended my stay in another Type C room until the end of exams. THEN it'll be the end of my hostel life :( Don't get me wrong; it's great to move home, but staying at PGP was really one of the best decisions I've made. Omg I'm going to miss it here so much :(
But anyway that's really the least of my concerns as of now haha, time to prepare for the impending doom called PROS omg :( maybe pros are really only meant for pros. ARGHGHSDGSD!!! *pulls hair* Okay just had to take a few minutes off to rant :( Back to cranial nerves sigh, guess I really have to start recapping some anat stuff tonight. Okay, once I finish the last 2 cranial nerves go go go!
MED SCHOOL Y U TORMENT US SO :'(((( Ohhhh manz
