who blogs in the days up to CA...

just got home from mugging in the lib. well, today's the eve of CA3. tml will be the first paper, which is neuroscience.

well i got a rude shock today when i realised i didn't remember all the MoA (mechanism of action) and ADR (adverse drug rxn) of all the drugs. and i do mean all the drugs. i didn't even know a single one. talk abt "learning, remembering and forgetting"... which is the title of 1 of my lectures on memory.

neither did i know the connections of the hypothalamus nor anything about the reticular formation. i know i know... u may think i'm exagerating... i can tell u honestly i'm not... well, i thought it was perfectly fine since i got an entire day ahead to study and revise. anyway ns is probably the smallest subject this CA.

it was a bad mistake to stay at home to mug cause i really was doing reticular formation (my 1st set for the day) from 11am to 3pm. and i still didn't finish it. i gave up and at tt pt i was like HOW sianz. imagine:

can't remember;
can't concentrate;
can't recall.

i thought i might have taken too much benzodiazepines the night before.

so at the wonderful time of 1600hrs i finally dragged myself down to the lib. if this was not the day b4 exams i would never do tt. i'ld simply have slept the day away. but u could imagine how demoralised i was. i couldn't even recall the MoA of barbituates.

but i still had something to do before i got down to studying. which i did which much glee knowing tt it has made the day of another. labour of love i guess and it's all worth it. :) lol.

so now i'm back. i'll try to recall stuff again and hopefully won't end up demoralising myself. too much. was so tired i complained to p and he just encouraged me, made me feel a bit better. haha. but anyway after dinner time i felt much better liao. thanks bro. :)

oh did i mention i ate 2 packets of sugared peanuts for dinner? haiz. it's called exam stress and the need to boost-my-glycaemic-lvl-yet-lazy-to-walk-to-canteen-for-a-proper-meal. other pple call it saving-$. others call it scared-fall-asleep-then-cannot-mug.

on the way home i almost got into an accident. yes i know, u're thinking "WHAT? again???" yeah. i tend to tailgate cars. anyway it was at the stretch of tanglin opposite the botanical gardens/american embassy before u reach tanglin proper. they're doing some road works there now and cut down 3 lanes to 2. so anyway some cars in front suddenly brake and i almost banged into this volvo in front of me. well, plus the fact i follow cars quite closely (who heard of the 2 sec rule anyway?), i'm quite glad i didn't really get into an accident. my dad who was sitting beside me pulled the handbrake and our car SKIDDED. yeah. was a bit of left right left right then stopped. but not drama lar. the skidding was only very slight and we stopped the car in <10 meters.

thank god. no really, thank god.

oh did i mention i didn't get a scolding at all?? wahahhahahahahaha.... my dad was exceptionally quiet the rest of the trip back. actually i also lar. haha. maybe eat some "lams and pams" would Rx our nerves. haha.

alright back to mugging now. don't think it'sll be a long session. otherwise i may just sleep first and mug tml morning.
