Cinderella for a night

August 20 - the Supreme PTOT Council alongside Team Elite conducted an acquaintance party for all year levels. A lot of people went and I think they have really enjoyed the party as well. There were also a lot of pretty girls with pretty outfits and thanks to Eryka and Lab-lab, I was dressed as nicely as them. It was awkward at first but I decided to break my shell a little and carried enough confidence throughout the party. Even when I was auctioned in front, I managed to control my nervousness and child-like mannerisms. (I think I did) I was sold for one thousand and five hundred pesos (Php 1,500.00) Overall, I had fun. Sigh...only if my feet didn't hurt like hell when I walk with the high-heeled shoes I borrowed from Hya. Heck! I wasn't able to dance because of the pain. I'll just sleep it off I guess.

I'll try to write a poem about it after my feelings have settled down a little. My mind is still in a disarray.

Unexpected recitation!

Today, we had an unexpected recitation about "Sensation Evaluation". I haven't really read the chapter in Sullivan with much seriousness last Sunday and eventually when my professor asked me a question, nothing popped into my mind. Really, nothing did! I really ought to thank my friends for helping me out.

[SUPERFICIAL SENSORY RECEPTORS]
- for pain and temperature sensation

[DEEP SENSORY RECEPTORS]
-for deeper structures (i.e. muscles)

Hope my professor asked me about the evaluation processes instead! I have integrated it in my frontal lobe quite nicely~

Well, until my next post!

The Biggest Hurdle...Med Neuro

Today, we met the doctor who will teach us in medical-surgical neurology and boy was it nerve-wracking! He reviewed us a little in neuroanatomy and I (perhaps the whole class too) realized that I've forgotten lots of what I have learned from last semester's anatomy. Wah! I'm in a big pinch! I need to review a semester's worth of neuroanatomy. I start to think why did I ever decide to review group dynamics last summer when I had a feeling that Med Neuro will be THAT hard? How stupid was that decision? Oh well, there's no sense in whining about it now.
