My Trial by Fire.

Shit happens. That's the "general rule of the universe". That's why we all here , and that's why i'm writing this now.

Because. Shit. Happens.

It's kinda sad to think this way but it's important that we understand this rule. If you do , it'll make your life 525,600 better.

Over the last couple of weeks i have taken my good time to meditate on some stuff. My life , my family , my friends , my carreer , my hopes , my expectations , etc. Pretty much everything.

What can i say? , i suffer from the "Too-much-thinking" disease. I'm a phychologist by blood , and a phylosopher by soul. At this point in life , i'm not even sure i will ever be able to cure myself.

I have , however, found some ways to tune it down a lot. Thanks to that , i would like to think i'm more calm and in control of my mind. Hopefully T_T . Maybe because of this , and some past events , i started to notice some weird stuff...

Somethings have changed this year , or maybe they started changing a long time ago and i didn't even notice. What seemed great , just a couple of months ago , now seems dull... what seemed dull , now seems more interesting. It's not like that with everything , but i don't feel like myself anymore. Or should i say "I don't feel like the person i thought i was" . Existencial crisis much? , who knows.... doesn't feel like anything i have experienced.

Yeeeah =/

The things that i saw myself doing in 10 years , are not so clear anymore. And slowly , i have come to the realization that the once wide road we all had when we left school , is now narrowing .

For better or worse , i'm not sure of any of the following things : what i want to be , who i want to be. "I don't feel like myself" would be an understatement. Its like i just woke up from a very ,very long dream. And you know what the funny thing is? .... i'm not worried at all. I'm completely indifferent about what's to come. I just wanna tag along for the ride.

Heh , maybe this are only the first symptoms of dementia (oh there's a history of dementia in my family... yep) , who knows (NOT ME) .

I'm not particulary happy with everything. Specially some stuff , but i have tried my best to accept it and move on. After all , what's the most important rule of the universe? (HINT: It comes from the ass)

And on that same note... i have asked the GITR to conduct some final researchs ..Let's see what they came up with!

GITR

Long term effects of studying medicine.


1- Increased tolerance for Caffeine

The GITR research indicates that the longer a person studies medicine , the higher their tolerance for caffeine will be . Different tables were gathered. The 4th year students had a significantly higher resistance when compared to the 3rd and 2nd year students. To verify that this effect wasn't exclusive to medicine , a senior group of "Hotel management" were compared to the 2nd year med students. The 2nd year med students had 5 times the caffeine resistance than the Hotel management seniors .

2- Sleep depravation

The study indicates that the average 1st year med student sleeps for 8 hours ... while the senior med student sleeps for 5.... when he does get to sleep (Not every night , nope)

3- Weight gain

A research was conducted on the diet of senior med students. The results are the following : Macdonald's 20% , Wendy's 20% , TacoBell 20% , No-food-at-all 10% , Other 30%.
In conclusion: Studying medicine gets you fat .

4- Uglyfication

Yes , studying medicine gets you ugly. The uglyfication increases over time. The 1st year students were all clean , used fancy clothes , didn't look like they hadn't seen a razor since their bar mitzvah or like they owed money to their hair stylist and couldn't pay. The seniors did.



And finally

5- Stupidification

While the GITR couldn't prove this , the theory is solid.

1st year students - "You are studying medicine. You are clueless"

2nd year students - "You are still studying medicine . You are stupid?"

3rd year students - "You are stupid!"

5th year students - "LOL you are finishing medicine.... only 5 to 10 more years to go! . Stupid"

As proved by this flawless analysis , medicine students do get more stupid. Those who change to careers , are obviously immune to the "stupidification" .

End research


Sooo , sorry for the lame post. Thank you for reading (you didn't have anything else to do , huh?) . Only 3 more finals to go and then its....... VACATION TIME! . Can't wait for it .. T___T . So freaking deserve it.

Thinking back , everything seems so different now...

Goodbye folks, best of luck and take care.

Pd: just fried another powersupply. Durrrf.
