YEAH someone normal and real life interactions on LJ. Well, I'll tell u what, when I first started there I remember being bummed I couldn't be in her class for I wanted to share in her infinate and never ending wisdom. By the time I had an elective that she taught...one that was 8 hours way to fucking long (You will notice that, so much wasted time and thus lost credits) It was obvious from the get go she is not all there anymore. That particular day she was really out of it, allergies. It felt like she was sinister and she would glare. Other students went to say how she has lunged and screamed at them for something, but in her heart she has OUR best interest in mind. So when she came to do rounds in the clinic I was soooooo excited. She did cranial sacral on my client....Again I was excited, I thought of specializing in this for my back neck issues. It was time consuming and too easy. I can't see someone wanting to pay for this, yet I met a woman that it cured her 30 year long DAILY migraines! So when Irene told me to put my finger under the 7th Cervical Vert, I asked where exactly for I didn't want to take up the clients time counting vertibrae.....Irene screamed at me. Yeah she has been doing it for 40 years and I should know off the bat. The client left me the worst review..I was puzzled. She had a bad attitude to begin with but Irene planted a seed. The whole experience turned ugly. My next apt didnt show so Irene did Cranial on me. I have an EXTREMELY crooked neck and even lieing supine makes me dizzy. Blocks my blood flow. By the time she was done I was shaking for all the spinal fluid and blood flow shifting from her work. I was literally shaking like I had had 10 cups of coffee...Then I read this shitty review. Just a horrible day.
I wonder when and if you'll hit the big crash around the 2-3 month period. I lost 22 pounds total. Brian might soften the blow as he is the only one that answers questions.
My test is the last before the finals...Origin and Insertion...the hardest one.. I have gotten A's on all of the tests but Dan just called and said he got 40 percent....I have hardly studied....I think I am a bit fed up.
man, the stupid handout said to study the blah blah muscles for a test next week, so i fucking studied and studied and freaked out and studied and i have the action and origin and insertion points damn near memorized for the sternocleidomastoid, the spinalis (both divisions), the semispinalis capitis, the splenius cervicis, the splenius capitis, the latissimus dorsi, and the quadratus lumborum.
i go to class last night...and there's no fucking test. not to mention, brian told me monday that i wouldn't have to know origin and insertion until much much later. think anyone could've mentioned something before i gave myself an ulcer trying to memorize 7 muscles?
oh...and am i the only one who thinks garry is a total creep? i think i must be, everyone else loves him.
OK first of all, NO I was so attracted to Garry for a longggg time. At first I wondered about his style, for he sort of holds a stare and me/women.. He'd whisper in my ear "Hi Amy" ...but I thought he was soooo HOT!!! After the first week that is. So perhaps you are the one thats right cause my choices in men are not good! What strikes u wrong about him?
Second. That's sooo awesome u did that. Keep doing it. A few muscles a day. I personally was overwhelmed and they had the system so badly organized that with that, and throwing in the health process, sympathathetic, parasympathetic nervouse system, modalities, they broke me. I never ever got my passion back. I went from trying to study a book noone can read if they are not a doctor, to just never looking at a book again. (I think they have since changed that book due to complaints) It was a huge mess, and I have just skated through waiting till the end due to how badly they threw me. I am not alone there. That's why I was excited for you to have Brian...that will help. So now I panic, I am at the end and I feel I didn't get the education I wanted. I'll figure it out I guess...but it's been a trying year for sure!!
LOL origin an insertion, I am at the 9 month mark and that test is tomorrow girl. God how could u even memorize O and I when you don't know what the boney landmarks are yet. Study, work and a young child...are u like an anomloy or WHAT haha!
i AM a total freak. total. i always bitch about how my sister is driven and i'm not...but that's kind of a lie. when i saw how disorganized the muscles were that we were supposed to study, i took my handy dandy flash cards that they sell in the book store, took them off the ring, and put them in the order that i needed them to be in. i also have an amazing short term memory, so i pretty much remember the names and locations of the bony landmarks if i look at them a few times. the bitch is, i'm actually going to have to remember those long term. that's where i'm screwed. i am more of a hands on/read it/touch it learner. i can't stand lecture at all. i am lucky, though. i can process a hell of a lot of information very quickly and efficiently. i am full of all sorts of worthless knowledge. that, and my house is like a library. got a question? if i can't answer it, i'm sure i have a book somewhere that can. hah.
here are some things i don't like about garry. first, i have the *feeling* that he really looks down on those of us that are overweight. hey, i know i got here of my own accord, but i already feel enough fucking shame, he doesn't need to add to that. second, he looks through our personal files to memorize our names. i don't like that, it gives me the willies. he says he keeps pictures of his students. the ones that he's used in class have all been thin, hot looking girls. if i was a thin, hot looking girl, i would not want some 50 year old creep suffering through his midlife crisis to have a picture of me. ew. i don't like the way he runs his class, to be honest. i don't need the same topic reinforced six freaking times through lecture, reading, video, more lecture, more video. i know, i'm a freak, and that's why i've had a hard time in classes where grades are attendance based. i can't sit still for lecture. it's just something in his demeanor that just really puts me off, and every time i am around him, i just feel my sense of revulsion growing. i think that also has to do with the fact that EVERYONE loves him. EVERYONE. if i say anything to detract from him, people look at me like i'm fucking crazy. i think it's super important to trust one's instincts, though. you don't always need to see the burner on to know it's hot, yannowhaddimean?
i could be totally wrong about the guy, and i hope i am. i'd like to like him like everyone else does. i hope that in time this happens. i'm not going to count on it though. i'm the meantime, i LOVE brian and jennifer lowe. sandra apprentices for my class too, and at first i really didn't like her, but after a nice glute rub, i'm warming up to her. haha.
Hey, what's your MySpace name? I have pretty much ditched the LJ scene....oh ya know, dead weight. Per what we were discussing in the kitchen at IMI type of a thing.
Ohh so it was Brian with Irene. That's why I asked how he is as an instructor, he can be passive to someone else's authority and just skim through stuff. If you pull him aside though,my god the wealth of info. Irene is very scattered...that's why she always has another person in the class....to GIVE the info she neglects to. So yeah I was saying it was a waste of a class for all of those reasons. I said 8 hours as in, Could have condensed it because it was a waste to just go over shit that's in a book, and like you said not REALLY get the feel for how to use it in a practice etc. I was very dissapointed. I am in many of the classes, they take so much time for each exercise that we could use having lecture or showing other moves, instead of a full 30 minutes or whatever. I am with you on that for sure. I didn't really like Polarity. Yes much more info and u noticed me ask a lot of questions for I feel they still fail to wrap it up in a way that we will use it. It's simply such a small 'taste' of something that I don't get how we'd use it in a setting and feel it's affects. I cant imagine someone PAYING such big money for an hour of that...Especially when I don't really feel much.
Continued on MySpace Sarah ....I cant fit it all here. My Last post I just made :)
