Nobody wears a white coat any more...

I was having trouble getting motivated to study already. And then, midway through the unit review exam for Male Genital Tract (1 of 7 for today), the phone rings.
Lowene: I have big news for you. The Pathology final isn't on Monday. It's next Friday, May 2nd.
The Medicine final is May 5th. While having more time to study for Path would be nice...how am I going to handle Medicine too? This is not what I wanted.

Pseudohypoparathyroidism: an autosomal recessive disorder, cararcterised be renal end-organ unresponsiveness of the kidney to PTH and by shortened fourth and fifth metacarpals and metatarsals, short stature, and other skeletal abnormalities.

NMS Medicine book is here. It's fucking huge. 696 pages to learn. But I have the question breakdown for the 173-question final, so I'll take that into account (20 questions on Cardiology, 1 on urology means why worry about urology?).
Also just-arrived: Cane Toads: An Unnatural History. Yay, my very own copy. Must inflict on Ayoyo at earliest convenience.

Chapter count: 20. Three completed this morning, despite my distraction.
Four chapters to do this afternoon, including skin, CNS, musculoskeletal, and the it-bit (yay for Jeff-isms!) one on medical statistics. I'm on target. I'm also starving. Time for lunch.

Chapter 22 finished. I'll need to go back over it; I hate musculoskeletal and need lots of practise.
Next up: CNS.

17:50 - CNS finished. Also on the list of Parts of the Body I Hate.

Another link (yay for pharmboy for reminding me about it): The AOL Translator.

Part of me finds the name L3nora to be kind of cute. And part of me just fell off the chair laughing:
"DARKN3S THEIR AND NOTHNG MOR31!111!!! OMG WTF"
In some sick twisted way, it works.

And with that, Angel and I are going shopping. I'll tell you why later.
