Quick update

30 minutes left to brain and spinal cord lecture. Now in the library doing nothing, just tired of study.

Still busy since week 1. Next week shud be my first formative and summative test, arggg, test again. Everyone is suffering for it, so am I.

Got to know that we wil have a new clinical school and new Menzies Research Institute soon, yeah. The buildings are damn modern, anticipating.

We are offered UROP (Undergraduate Research Opportunities Program). Great chance to go into research. However, only some will be selected. Furthermore, those we are selected will start to involve in research with scientist, professor...... during the summer break for 6 weeks. Arh, cannot go back if I wana involve. Somemore when we accept the offer, got to work for 8 hours per week for the research for 20 weeks. Anyway, of course we got paid for 5K a year. Shud i go for it????

Completed my first family visit in Week 2. Not too bad. Having fun with baby.

Learned statistics yesterday, wao, maths is great. But the statistics assignment is.....
Research assignment due on 20 Sept. Got to research on all 11 previous australian nobel price winners and got to predict who is the australia next nobel prize winner, wanlau, doubt i can guess.

So far, finished dissecting lower limb. I was involved in the medial and anterior thigh and foot. Will move on to the back and upper limb soon. I love the session but hate the formaldehyde.

Surface anatomy was great too. Touched here touched there to locate the bones and muscles, haha, fun. Those locals are great with their bodies. No wonder Andre go gym so often.

Will have rural placement soon. Since Tasmania is well known for its rural placement and rural clinical school, hope that will turn up a great one.

Sum up everything, got to go for the brain lecture, c ya.
