Heat, exam, weekend and everything in between

Today I wrote my Physiology exam. The trip up until this exam has been the usual one, too optimistic with the time, leading to an extreme repetition day the day-night-morning before the exam. Normally I stress out by that point, can't study properly, nervousness has taken over my body. But yesterday was an exception, I was as calm as one could be! Instead I had an urge to puke instead this morning in school waiting for hell to start.
The problem with Physiology (teaching about how everything works in the body, a lot of integrational knowledge, a bit of Chemistry and Physics...) is not that it is boring. It is very interesting. Neither is it a "hard" subject to master. Things in the body work normally quite logically, also you have some knowledge beforehand that you can build on. The problem lies within the amount of information to take in. It is an endless subject (everything from how we form our faeces (had that as a question today) to how some hormone works, is produced/inhibited) and so much yet to discover (especially about some higher brain function, we still do not know WHY and HOW the body induces sleep!). But I am still so happy about the fact that it is over.
The next project will be to take on all bacteria, viruses, fungi, antibacterial medicines and co. Also very interesting, but just a pain in the ass to learn. Many details, and a whole new world that has opened to us during this year!



And yes, the heat continues. Our apartment is luckier than many elses, the heat inside does at least not exceed the warmth outside. As long as you stay put in the apartment things will be just fine. It's the outside world that is knocking you out after a trip to the store (just some 100m from the apartment).

Apparently another week also has passed, and it's Friday! Feels like waking up after a long sleep to realise normal things around you once again; diving up for a quick breath before taking the next dive. To celebrate this I was at the hairdresser's and ordered my summer bookpackage from Adlibris. Can't wait to start read what I want and do stuff whenever I want to. Without having a bad conscious about it!!

6 days until summer vacation :)
