Day 2

My second day back at uni turned out a lot better than the first. Yesterday I was just non-stop freaking out the entire bloody time, it was awful. But today, I was calmer, probably more tired, and better able to deal with what was being thrown at me. Even if I sat through a two hour lecture without a friggen clue as to what the point of it all was.

Didn't help I had the wrong notes.

I've got blisters popping up all over my hand from writing too much, I guess, they're painful and annoying and I wish they'd turn into calluses already. Also have punctuate leukonychia on a couple of nails, which is odd.

Bleh.

I was a bit bummed in today's bioscience class, though. This semester, the lecturer is apparently planning to basically dumb everything down so we deal with as little science as possible, and just learn the basic things that are absolutely necessary for us to know.

It's a bit lame, really.

But I did have to laugh/groan when she was standing there trying to explain exactly what adenosine triphosphate entails. She's all, this part here is what we call adenosine, and connected to this are these three groups here, and each one of these is what we call phosphorus, and so there's three groups of phosphorous attached to the adenosine, so we call it adenosine TRIphosphate. Because there's three.

Like we didn't just spend an entire semester dealing with it.

Though, speaking of my course, I did giggle a lot in my head this morning when I realised for the zillionth time how ironic it is for me to undertaking a degree in nursing when I currently dislike people as a whole.

I'm tired of people expressing their opinions, then getting defensive when others disagree, and telling them that they were merely expressing their opinion as is their right, so if you don't like it that's your opinion and you should keep it to yourself.

Going by that latter statement, everybody should keep their opinions to themselves, not just those who disagree with a poorly worded statement.

And if everybody kept their opinions to themselves .. well, there'd be a lot more peace, but the world would be a very quiet place.

Conversation is built on opinion and perceptions.

Were we to keep every opinion to ourselves, nothing would ever be said.
