Aloha!

Turns out the exam I did turned out not to be hard... that is if I had studied well. The concepts on the exam weren't hard, I just plain didn't memorize certain diagrams. I had kinda given up because I thought there was way too much to go through, but of course, the exam thoroughly ignored certain workbook areas and made itself a lot simpler than I figured it to be. Dammit, I shouldn't have given up trying to memorize the bones! Remember that carpal bones thing? 4% of the exam was on that! Dammit! That could easily be the difference between a B or a B+, and so on.

Ah well, hopefully I learned a lesson. In fact, I have a midterm right away on Friday, followed up by one next Wednesday. Oh joy! But heres where I prove I am capable of learning life lessons and study better for the Wednesday exam. University shouldn't be something that breaks you down, but sometimes it seems like that. I can't allow myself to be mentally broken.

In fact, in the last few UFC's I've watched, perfectly physically capable fighters allow themselves to be beaten because their mental state was unstable. Its absolutely crushing to watch it happen, knowing they trained hard for it, and lose mainly because their head wasn't in it.
