I haven't blogged in a long time, but today as I was sitting in the LT I had the urge to! We learnt the basics of ECG today, what those squiggly lines mean and how the ECG is formed (cheem physics this part). And I had a moment- I felt: 'oh WOW I cannot believe I am sitting here learning this!' Cuz you see, I once stared at the piece of paper that the ECG machine churned out, and the patient would ask, 'Is it okay? Is it normal?' And I had no idea except the top right hand corner of the paper would normally say 'Normal Sinus Rhythmn'. So it was kinda cool learning the stuff today.
Anws for school, we've started on Physiology in addition to Anatomy, and with it more Histology (going crazy looking at cells and tiny art haha) and I like Physio better, learning about blood, respiration and how the heart works is better than visualizing the tiny details, layer by layer, of the limbs.
