Am battling it out with WebCT to try and go over my neuro quizzes again. WebCT is NOT being co-operative (then again, is it EVER co-operative?). In fact, it just made my IE crash I lost most of this post which I'd already written out. GAH.
My family will be home in about two hours, give or take a little, depending on how often Dad has to stop for Mom to be carsick. Apparently they had an asolutely HORRENDOUS run on the Spirit III and she spent the entire time horribly still sick. Got to land really late last night (11pm, even though they were supposed to dock at lunchtime!) and she's still feeling terrible. Poor Mom. I never get seasick - I revel in the roughness and the rolling. It's a sensation I absolutely adore, but I know how sick she gets and feel quite guilty because I don't get sick.
ANYWAY.
Family will be home soon. House is in a relatively ok state.
The last week of studying exclusively for micro has most likely gotten me through micro, but I'm afraid that Neuro is a bit too big to cram in a day. Still, I made the decision to abandon it because as long as I passed everything else, they'll let you do Neuro again in 4th year as an extra subject. To be honest, I'd like to do it again, even if I did pass, because I honestly don't think I'd be happy with my knowledge of it if I scraped through because there is so much detail and I hate the feeling of scrabbling for the vestige of a concept I might have read once.
Either way, I'm studying (have studied SOLIDLY for two and a half hours this morning, with minimal distraction! Must be a new record!) and have plans to continue to do so. Must just get WebCT to function now.
GRR.
Still, have past exam papers to go through.
I just wish my fingers weren't so cold; it's horrible writing with numb hands and cold feet. makes the rest of me (which is really warmly rugged up) feel all chilly and miserable as well.
Oh, back to the family. It will be most excellent to see them again and have PEOPLE to talk to and cook me real food (YAY!) but I really, really wish they were only coming back tomorrow AFTER neuro, because doubtlessly they will be noisy and I have just gotten used to the quiet, and they will want to socialise and tell me about their trips and talk about the shop and I LOVE doing all of that, JUST NOT TODAY.
*WAILS*
Am going now, to make the most of the last two hours of study.
Love,
me!
