into 2nd week of school
So back to school again, full steam ahead. The feeling of impending doom really does keep loominng here; this is a course that they crammed into 8 months, where previously it was once a year, then 9 months, and now 8 months. Neuroscience has an odd stigma of being srsly impossible, but I think its just how much the course ignores the other body parts. Do people really think that we don't want to know about anything except the brain? Because hearing that the critical care people learned all about ECG and we didn't makes us all kind of go..."So our patients all don't have heart problems or will never develop one IS THAT RIGHT."
Our lecturer has added bonus of going WE SHOULD BE CREATIVE, now let us abandon powerpoint and go forth and present. Honey, I will totes present without power point any day. But the creative part? you tell me about it; I'm sure I'll think of something after revising my pharmacology or pathophysiology and cramming before every class that creativity will drop out of the sky. This is the same exact problem my employer has: WE SHOULD BE CREATIVE! And dot every i, slash every t, btw we are starting three new assessment tools, plus education, plus come up with a new research project every year. Sometimes I wonder if you know you need nurses in the wards because you don't seem to like us doing our thing in the wards, which also happens to be a full time job. I actually used to think it was ok to overtime. But now with all this I am done. Its probably all backlash, but I am tired of being tired.
Books wise -- of course I reread the ancillary series again, so good yay. Ancillary Mercy picks up where Ancillary Sword left off. And it gets with the consequences and picking up the debris from all the explosions in Ancillary Sword, and amazingly gets funnier. This has a large part to do with the Translator the Presger sends, but even Breq can't resist by the end of the book and is gleefully trolling her newfound cousin. XD And of course the unexpected revolution that literally sprang out from under the Lord of all Radchaai's feet. XD
ALSO THAT SONG SHE TAUGHT THE PRESGER TRANSLATOR, PLEASE SOMEONE MAKE IT VIRAL. Sphene will hate me, but I can live with that!
