At least it's not sunny



The preparation for the exam continues, grudgingly. There is nothing quite like spending your weekend confined to the library staring out at the city, in all its life and glory, while you scrutinize over all the intricate details of neuroanatomy in all of its complexity.

The course directors have this mantra to describe the mind training needed to learn the information presented in BMB. "Great concentration and great compassion." I can see why the mantra applies; concentration is necessary to scratch the surface of the content and compassion is needed for your self when you feel like you understand the material, only to discover your logic is skewed and you are back to square 1.

Well, the brain studying marathon continues. I dressed appropriately for this extreme mental excercise (gym clothes).

At least it's not sunny, which makes the studying just a little more bearable. Actually, not really.
