katangahan sa anatomy moving exam..

PRE-NOTE: For non medical people, please search the capitalized words in google para maka relate kayo! =p

ok, so today was the first day of our prelim exam. we had one subject: Anatomy, with the laboratory moving exam in the morning and lecture written exam in the afternoon.

so this was what happened. dumating ako sa school nang di masyadong prepared. i studied hard, sa SNELL (the author of the textbook we use in anatomy lecture), at hindi sa CLEMENTE (the author of the dissector that we use in the laboratory). eh dapat, mas mag aral ako sa clemente kase lboratory exam siya.

so here goes. my classmates and i reviewed about the muscles, arteries, nerves, veins, origins, insertions, chorvaloo...hehe! we reviewed really hard, kahit na medyo napaka hyper namen mag review. hahaha!!

so dumating si kuya gilbert (isa sa mga assistant sa lab). he was like, "ang hirap ng exam niyo! pag aralan niyo ang mga nerve roots"

eh di nataranta ang lola niyo dahil hindi ko pinag aralan ang nerve roots!! so buti na lang, earl was able to save the day dahil tinuruan niya kame. hahaha!! sabe ku pa, "i have a feeling na walang nerve roots. alam niyo naman si kuya gilbert, may pagka-flip" ahahaha!!

so anyways, ayun the exam started. una ang section namen and it was in alphabetical order. as our surnames were approaching nearer, we became practically random na. the guys started to sing medley songs and i started to rant, "kung alam ko lang ganito kahirap ang med, sana nag law na lang ako" mwahaha!! imagine? ako? nag LAW? hahaha!!

so anyways, to make the long story short, it was our turn already. so i took my paper, wrote my name, the date, etc...so when the bell rang, i went to the first station..

NEYM: hala, ano yan?
kase nakatali sa muscle sa likod ng sternum. pero i wasn't sure if it was a muscle or a fascia...so i answered TRANSVERSUS THORACIS MUSCLE...

then i moved on...gahd!! at nakatali ang ipapaidentify nila sa isang NERVE!! and nerve is my hatest part dahil isa lang talaga ang masasagot ku sa lahat ng nerve...LATERAL THORACIC NERVE! ahahaha!! para sure!! =p

ni hindi ku na ma differentiate kung nerve or artery ba yung nakikita ku. magkamukha kase. mwahaha!!

so anyways, i got into this station where i had to think of the insertion of the muscle na nakatali. eh ang problema, napasarap ang pag iisip ku at naabutan na ako ng time. so nataranta nanaman ang lola niyo! when i moved on to the next station, dun ku na sinulat yung sagot ku sa previous station.

so the tendency was i wasn't able to orient myself with the position of my cadaver dahil nagmamadali na ako para makahabol sa pagsagot dun sa present station ko. when i looked at the A question, i answered PECTORALIS MAJOR MUSCLE. then sa B question naman, medyo napaisip pa ako, pero i answered SUBCLAVIUS MUSCLE...

so i guess it was around a few seconds before the bell rang when i was finally able to look at my cadaver and my gosh!! NAKATALIKOD PALA ANG CADAVER KO! mwahahaha!!
eh yung sagot ko, sa harap yun. ahahaha!! sa sobrang tranta ko, hindi ko napansin na nakatalikod pala yung cadaver. akala ko nakahiga siya. eh the pectoralis major muscle is in front, as well as the subclavius..

eh di taranta part three ako. i erased my first two answers, pero the bell rang na. so my answer became A: TRAPEZIUS MUSCLE at sa B: LEVATOR SCAPULAE MUSCLE...

then we moved on. more nerves, more confusing muscles or fascia and finally, i was finished...

so ayun, balita ako sa classmates ku dun sa nangyare. sabe ku pa, "yung sa trapezius chorva" sabe naman nila, "wala namang trapezius"

and then napaisip uli ako...gahd!! hindi nga pala trapezius yun kase tinanggal na ang trapezius! ahaha!! it was the INFRASPINATUS MUSCLE pala!! tangina!! mali nanaman ako dun! ahahha!!

sobrang werla moment talaga. akalain mong hindi ku man lang napansing NAKATALIKOD pala at hindi NAKATIHAYA yung cadaver na sinasagutan ku. if i was able to orient myself na nakatalikod siya, i was able to analyze the muscle pa and would be able to answer it correctly.

huuuu...i hate moving exams! nakaka pressure!! meron pang devil clock na nadidinig talaga sa speaker yung TICKING sound niya. and every tick would correspond to my heartbeat. hahaha!!!

if it wasn't for the time pressure, i would have answered the muscles well..haaayy..

so anyways, dahil sa sobrang frustrate ku sa nangyare, when i bought my lunch, ang tingin ku sa mga carrots eh nerves at sa mga fish naman eh muscles. hahaha!!! parang they were mocking me, telling me how stupid i was. mwahahaha!! =p

and while i was licking my wound, biglang nag announce na WALANG PASOK dahil may H1N1!! mwahaha!!

so yun, suspended and classes namen hanggang july 30. yay!! more time to date walter boron! ahahaha!!! =p

BUHAY MEDISINA...
