Never have I, NEVER, in my life, read through my textbook (s) cover to cover. Seriously. Those biochemistry, molecular biology, physiology and anatomy (Garrett&Grisham, Alberts, Sherwood, Gray's.. Sounds familiar?) textbooks that I've had since my NUS days have been UTILIZED. BRUTALLY.
Three years in NUS and I barely flipped those books, just a couple of months here, I've practically read most of them cover to cover (ok, I admit, a bit of exaggeration here), but close to it! There's SO much to know, there's such an intense hunger to know and to absorb as much as I can, only thing is, there isn't much time.
I'm crossing my fingers about Normal Systems, it's not humane to squeeze the breadth of three semesters worth of medical school anatomy into one for dental students and call it NORMAL systems. It is totally and absolutely NOT AT ALL normal. Yes.. as you can see.. this is what it has done to me. Six exams in ONE week. AWESOME! I'm half done, half to go! I'm going to pull through this!!! I may not do well in SOME of the units, but I'm going to do what I can, in what little time I have, to do well for the rest of it! I DON'T believe I can't!!!!
(you see the determination in my eyes? Imagine it!) *ROAR*
