How to read a fortune cookie

xkcd - A webcomic of romance, sarcasm, math, and language - By Randall Munroe.jpg

another comic from xkcd.com

In other news, med micro may have finally became interesting today. Previously, we spent a whole lot of time on epidemiology, which is mind-numbingly boring (imo). However, we finally got to the meat of med micro today...learning about all the various little bacteria, viruses, parasites, and fungi that make us sick, as well as (hopefully), how to kill them. It's gonna be a whole lot of memorizing, but I think it'll be interesting. We also got a new physio teacher today. Hard to tell much from her first day, but so far, so good. Apparently, she just received a very prestigious physiology teaching award. She comes to us from one of the Canadian medical schools.

Shortly, it will be time for ICM 3 (intro to clinical medicine), my least favorite time of the day. This semester, we have ICM for 10 days, over a 3 week or so period. It's gonna be a rough 3 weeks, but at least we'll get it over with quickly. Kinda like ripping a band aid off, very slowly, i suppose.
