Oblivious...

It's August! hmmm i guess my blog missed me.. well, blame it to Med School..

Recently my life has been pretty much in a fast forward mode.. Summer was just like an oblivion.. It went by so quickly that I had a little memory of it.. Then Med school started! And this really shocked me! Everything about it! It was like a bullet shot at me at my back!

Exams became our life.. Studying is slowly becoming a habit... I always have notes with me everywhere I go.. Going to school, going home, going out.. eating out.. etc... Things to do can't fit in even on a weekend.. It's TRUE, in Med School... Life minus Social life.. Things are meant to be sacrificed.. Even haircuts.. you have to set it! :P hehe

Going through this fast paced life was not easy... esp. for me.. My study habits for college is not working in med school...

My grades are going up then down... then up again.. then down... and this is not a gradual up and down... it's in a form of spiky up and down! I need direction.. I need a boost again.. I was not functioning as i was supposed to be functioning. I was not attaining what i ought to attain.. I know.. grades would not determine on how and what kind of a doctor you are going to be.. but let's face it.. we need grades to pass! It's not good grades = bad doctor.. it's not bad grades = still a doctor? bad doctor? good doctor? It's Good Grades = Good Doctor. There should be both.. ;)

I've been thinking on how to get back on track.. as of now.. i'm going to be a little O.C... just like doc Tim (UST med students know him).. I'll try to schedule and give me direction...

Wish me luck! Shifting Exams this week... Aug 9-15! :D

Oh yeah...

did i say that I LIKE EXAMS? :P
