7/9
What a week I've had! During the week I have started a new exercise routine (read that as: yoga- not gonna lie, it's addictive haha), studying (and sooking) about the mid semester test I had today, and being stuck on trains in excess of more than 3 hours.

Earlier this week I had a few shorter days*, which is always good fun! Left me plenty of time to complete some study and bicker about my group assignment with my group members- it seems that we chose two drug molecules that target the PDE4 that have very little information about them (considering one of them only got approved for use for psoriasis in December last year!) :-[
* Except for the day I finished 15 mins earlier than normal and it took me 3.5 hours to get home lol

Today has been a bit of a patchy day- I had my only midsem (worth 15% of one of my unit's grade) and quite honestly I don't think I did very well. The unit in question is proving fairly difficult too, which really doesn't help my stress levels :P
I've also had a 4 hour break (which at the time of writing I'm still in haha) between this and my only lecture (for the same unit as the test- what a low blow hahah) for the day. At least I've used most that time well by finalising some parts of my group assignment and reviewing content for an upcoming quiz.

The next week of uni shall be interesting- I have a quiz tomorrow on the reproductive systems for physiology, and my group oral presentation on Tuesday. I also have a lot more contact hours than what I've had for the past few weeks, but I also get free food and a lab tour at the end of next week- which I'm uber excited for! ;D

Is uni even worth it if there's no free food? ;)

Did heid convert you into a yoga fanatic? Should I be scared now?

Also good luck with your oral group presentations. Make sure all your other members get the memo to arrive on time... Lets just say my group had some issues regarding this and among other things when we had to present.  :-X

Hence why i'm in all these different threads and boards.

Nah, my own decision- wasn't really doing much exercise so that was the first thing to come to mind :P

Thanks! :) Luckily my group is pretty good- this is the second presentation I'll do with them, so we're allgs ^_^

The day I can breathe easier- I passed my midsem ;D
(I honestly thought I'd fail haha)

I also think I did alright on my physiology quiz this morning, bar that one question I didn't really know how to answer. :)

The day where I actually find it too painful to continue watching a series of 4 prelecture videos in preparation for my physiology lecture tomorrow.
I also need to read some lecture notes for a physical chemistry lecture tomorrow as well. :)
I can't wait until the midsem break, I'm starting to wear down a bit and I need that too recover study. :)

What's a pre-lecture video? :-\ Like, I can guess based on the name - but are they compulsory?

Basically a "lecture" that I have to watch prior to my active learning lectures. I have to prepare for my all my lectures before attending (usually it's a reading or 5, very rarely a video haha), otherwise the lectures themselves are pretty pointless, as we do activities about the content, instead of covering the content :)

- Late last night I finished *all* of those prelecture videos for physiology- made it worthwhile this morning as I had to draw a concept map about the process of identifying a bitter taste. (shown below)
- I also had a physical chemistry lecture- saw an eye injection video, kinda glad I have a strong stomach*
- I also had an bioorganic and medicinal chemistry (what a big name for a unit haha ::) ), in which we covered polymer chemistry. :)
- I also sat through 4 long hours of presentations this afternoon- what joy hahah
- Today also marked the start of a new group assignment, which is going to be fun (I hope! ;D )
Slighty blurry and messy photo of concept map


*Unless you ask me what happened late Friday arvo hahah

Tomorrow is a lot more chill than tomorrow, I only have to sit through 4 hours of presentations again, but this time, my group is presenting ;D
