Drudgery

I am so bored of revision. It is actually killing me. It's interesting, in small bursts. But for 8 hours straight, which is what i'm doing currently, it's just too much. But it is what is required. So it must continue. I have 8 cases that will be tested and i've revised 6 so far. I'm half way through the 7th, and the 8th is shorter. I am yet to do the anatomy associated with the cases but, the anatomy we need to know, is essentially impossible for me to learn in 5 days, so i'm not too bothered. And i doubt they'll want to know the exact names, origins, insertions, innervation, and bloody supply [arterial and venous] of every muscle in the arm and the lower limb. There's just too much else to be tested on. So maybe i'll shoot blanks when they ask us the 7 direct anatomy questions but i can't fill my short term memory like that. It doesn't work. And it's muliple choice, so i can always have an educated guess.

No-one else is around and it is very boring. I just spent an hour looking through photo's on facebook. There are so many memories contained in photo's; that's why i aim to take one every day. I desperately want to document my time here, to have the ability to look back and remember. Not just think, wow, i got wasted a lot.

Li is back in his home town. I'm trying to think of ways to get him to drink less and i've come up with actually putting the effort into properly starting a band up. Maybe, once we've got a few songs going, even looking for a gig or two. I'm going to buy a pair of bongo's and a few other percussive instruments and be the vocals and noise making section of the band. It's the only thing i can really do, as i can't play a tuned instrument [apart from bashing out a few chords on the keyboard] and sing at the same time. Lacking the co-ordination. I can, however, bang stuff and create a beat whilst bellowing. Hopefully. It should be good fun. Actually being productive and what not.

Exams are in..3/5 days.
