Can't wait for all this to be over!!

The usual... I want the exam to be over with. And hopefully with a good result. Right now I am looking forward to doing some tidying (would you believe!!) and some gym work out (again... weird, eh?). And some crafting. Kinda missing that. And I know I'll be reading my books, medical notes/websites etc ... it's just the EXAM ... and the thought of an EXAMINER!! Don't have a problem with actually doing the work on our players so far, but that's a different thing, isn't it??? Doesn't help that my body is against me ... keeping me awake with starting to revising after midnight when I want to sleep (brain's somehow going into overdrive!!), having headaches/migraines and cramps. JOY!!! Now I just have to figure out how I'm going to Glasgow on Wednesday ... and hope for the best! Still revising tonight and tomorrow after work (will go in early so I'm home for 4:30pm or so and do some practical on my 2 "models". ;)

Stumbled over this little song last month...

Yeah... not sure how long it's out but I just found it ... huh! Like it though. And now I'm going to read a couple of pages in my book (still reading "Ice Limit" and have about 6 new books waiting to be read - that's apart from all those anatomy and physiology books that seem to pile up downstairs right now!!!) before switching off the light. Tomorrow is my first day in the new department in my old work ... not sure if I actually posted an update on my working situation after end of November??? Anyway... back to the same company, different department, similar work, just this time pension admin for company pensions instead of personal pensions. Looks like I am going to be in the same team as one or two of my other friends, so that will be at least not too bad. Working 3 days per week though instead of just 2 ... Tuesdays - Thursdays ... means I have to put more time into the days off with studying... BIG DAY IS ON 20 JANUARY!!!!!!

BfS Day 2 - Studying

Well... that's not the title of the prompt, but what I make of it. Was bad enough for me to find a topic to use for today's post ... just suddenly had writer's block after I read Shimelle's prompt! :o That happens from time to time. ;) But now to the topic at hand... I've never been the best at school ... managed to go onto a higher level at Secondary School/High School than advised, but then dropped out when it got towards the "Abitur" (A-levels), started a course in Radiology which I dropped out of after 5 months as well... My last course back in Germany was a diploma course for Bilingual Secretaries (or "Trilingual", as other countries apart from Germany seem to count their own language, too). I did finish that course (YAY) and went into the "working world" with the full intention to only do that for a couple of years, for the money, and then do another course to change profession to something I really want. What, I wasn't su...

My first attempt at mind maps....

... and it went to oversize!! ;) Not sure why, probably did take a too complex topic for it... was just "Injuries" and all went huuuuuge!! :) However, I think for some things it will work... somehow! ;) Totally forgot ... some news about the Edinburgh Wolves in the news on 31.1.2007 ... :) Hurray! Now onto planning stewarding, tickets, programs etc etc etc ... !!! :o Mein erster Versuch mit "Mind Maps" ... und es wurde uebergross!! ;) Weiss nicht genau warum, habe vermutlich ein zu komplexes Thema genommen ... es war nur "Verletzungen" und alles wurde rieeeeesig!!! Aber egal, ich denke, dass es fuer einige Dinge funktionieren wird ... irgendwie! ;) Hab ja total vergessen...Neuigkeiten von den Edinburgh Wolves in der Zeitung vom 31.1.2007. Hurraaaaa! Nun muessen wir nur noch das "stewarding", Eintrittskarten, Programme usw usw usw planen... !!! :o

Still not 100% back to studying...

Have taken yesterday as my "day off" to just "vegetate" in front of the TV and also read a bit (non anatomy/physiology/etiology & pathology!!!). Was quite good but my brain was still not switched on at all ... today is a little better but I can read things about anatomy/physiology and I may as well attempt to read Chinese ... not going to happen today. Doesn't help that I seem to have developed a cold (sore throat and sniffle)... :( Sooooo... I give up for today and will hopefully be back to 5 hours studying (excl. breaks) tomorrow. Gestern hab ich mal einen Tag "freigenommen" nach dem praktischen Modul, hab vor dem Fernseher "hinvegetiert" und auch ein bisschen gelesen (aber nichts, was mit meinem Studium zu tun hat!!!). War ganz gut, aber mein Gehirn ist immernoch nicht ganz angeschaltet... Heute ist es ein bisschen besser, aber ich kann was ueber Anatomie/Physiologie lesen und haette genauso gut was auf Chinesisch lesen koennen ... stu...
