Life After Anatomy

Ayyyyeeee!!! Guess who blazed thru his Anatomy CUMULATIVE final exam? Guess who doesn’t have to mindlessly memorize muscle groups and innervations anymore? Guess who has (slightly) more free time now?   THIS GUY!!! Ain’t no more Anatomy bihhh!!! After almost 13 grueling weeks of learning the intricacies and wonders of the human body, I can finally […]

Being Thankful in a Crazy World

I don’t think I’ve ever been happier to take a break from school than I am now. Sure growing up, I loved Thanksgiving, winter and summer breaks, but this is very different. I feel like I need this break coming up. I’m mentally exhausted and I feel like I need to leave this area for […]

Final Push!

TEN MORE DAYS. That’s what’s separating me from now and freedom. Well, freedom from anatomy. Biochemistry is right around the corner but we won’t talk about that right now. Just ten days. Granted, I gotta take two different tests in this ten-day span but at this point I don’t even care. I’ve finally developed a study […]

Still Chugging Along

Shoutout to this extra hour we got today! Because of this extra hour, I was able to get through this past Friday’s lecture, get my laundry done, cook my lasagna, write this post, and STILL have time to continue studying tonight. And the best part is, I woke up at noon! 😏 One thing that always annoyed me about […]

Where Has The Time Gone???

Bruhhhh my little brother turns 19 tomorrow…😳😧😰 Where has the time gone?? I still distinctively remember when I was 19, living out my sophomore year of college without a care in the world. Okayyy I cared a little. Had to keep up my GPA to keep my scholarship…and to make sure I became a doctor…but still, […]

Gotta Keep Pushing…

So I took a morning stroll today to CVS. It was a nice, brisk morning, not too hot and not too cold…it was pretty chill. It was also a very slow morning. Winston-Salem is the kind of city that has traffic lights on every corner because it wants to act like it’s poppin’…thing is, I saw like […]

Halfway thru Anatomy!

I can’t believe that I’m already halfway done with anatomy… We literally started anatomy six weeks ago. The weeks have flown by like crazy…like I would go to sleep Monday night and before I knew it, I was waking up on Friday morning. But at the same time, I feel like our first day of […]

Second Test, No Stress.

Can we talk about why everything in anatomy/medicine is SO hard to pronounce?? It’s like the scientists and doctors in years past just huddled together played the “How Hard Can You Make The Life Of Future Med Students” game. Brainstorming words like pancreaticoduodenal and ischiocavernosus and shiii…try saying preganglionic parasympathetic nerves five times fast. If you […]

Another Week. 😒

Here goes the start of ANOTHER week of fresh, brand-new material to study. SMH. Is it bad that I’m not feeling as pressed about this new section of material as I was about the material before my first exam? Like my next exam is next Friday (Oct. 2) but I’ve been pretty chill about studying and I’m just […]
