God please save my sorry ass
It's sad when you only get a mid-term and a final for a class....and you get the feeling you probably failed the final. Yeah....that was histology. What a bitch of a test. It's extra sad because I went in there with an "A," which I was really hoping to keep. We haven't found out our grades yet, but it can't be too good.....
I get frustrated with being walloped with punch after punch of molecular biology/biochemistry, cell biology, histology, and everything else of that sort with only occasional mention of some kind of clinical correlation. It really gets boring. My only solace is anatomy, which is starting to make Dr. D's course look like "The Complete Idiot's Guide to Basic Anatomy." But at least it's stuff I can see and feel and relate to surgical procedures I've observed. I guess it takes a couple horrible courses to make you appreciate the really good ones, huh?
Ah, well. At least I have wonderful professors who are not only good instructors, but can be funny as hell. The woman who gives most of the biochem lectures is so wry. I swear she's exactly like our Hendrix Margaret....about 20 years in the future. I feel like I'm getting a chemistry lecture from a Hendrix pal every morning. Oh, and speaking of our most beloved college....I met another Hendrix student here! She's a third year student (graduated college 2004), and she said another girl in her class is also an alum. It's nice to know a little bit of "home" is here with me :)
