weather-related solemnity
Friday, May 28, 2010

the day we returned to dunedin from chch, maomao was feeling abit sad and reflective..
now that the ospe is over, the health-scienced mind of mine would immediately shift to do some radiology or genetics revision for the upcoming mcq test..
but like the current weather, i am feeling quite abit worn.. not that the weather can be worn out but you know.. literary.
ospe was half bad and half doable. i am just disappointed with myself. each time these assessments come up, i think that i did enough work, but deep down i know i could have done better.. so why dont i learn from the previous mistakes and work harder the next time?
maybe i am just overthinking it or it is because i am still not adjusted to the fact that all i need is a pass.
pass.
50 out of 100.
how hard can that be?!
but even if i do reach and surpass that threshold by a little, im not satisfied. i never am.
i beat myself up thinking why couldn't i have done better..
it's obvious i should have prepared more and prepared better.
the one thing i dont understand is that
when people are genuinely interested in something, dont they thirst for more knowledge around that particular subject. why cant i understand something that i really like?
more importantly, why cant i remember something that i really enjoy? it's anatomy for goodness' sake. how much can one understand anatomy, as opposed to knowing it? it's just basically memorising.
sigh. im going to go eat a capsule of fish oil.
might improve my memory.
on a lighter note, im performing tonight with the med choir on med performance night. hopefully that will go well and i wouldnt sing out of tune too much. at dress rehearsal last night, they placed the mic too close to me that i felt slightly over-conscious.
hope everyones well and not bogged down by the tone of my post.
im okay really!
going to watch some youtube to relax for abit, then start revision.
