Perfect weather.

This picture is likely to freak Kratz out:

 This cat is sitting on the top of my cooler outside. The criss cross of the picture is because I took it through the net that's on my window. It just kept on...staring at me. I didn't mind though, I just flashed a camera in its face, lol.
So the weather is changing very drastically here, Spring has already arrived, but it's brought along it's own share of heat too, and soon before you know it, the summers will be driving us crazy. If there's one thing I truly dislike about this country of not mine, it's the summers. The are near unbearable. Every year upto a thousand people die from from heat stroke, from working out in the sun, or if you're old and weak, from just standing at the bus stop waiting for a bus. :/ And there's actually different kinds of hot: It can be sweltering, with the wind being hotter than the air, so it feels like there's no coolness at all, or it could've rained (the ''during rain'' part is the cool part...people all around dance and play in the rain) and after the rain it'll be the humid and sticky kind of hot, where you feel like your skin is always wet. I really don't like summers here. Really.
I got really ill in the morning today, because I had a boiled egg for breakfast. I KNOW my body, I know the things I can and cannot have. First things first,breakfast doesn't agree with me, it's really rare that I'll have it (on my days off, I usually wake up past noon, but lately I've been waking up earlier due to my college schedule) but when I do, there are only a few things which suit me. It's not like I don't eat eggs at all, I love omelettes, any kind, and can make some of the best ones. THAT, I can have. But not a fried egg or a hard boiled egg. That just makes my tummy feel all icky. So that's how it was feeling today on the bus stop, and I really, desperately wanted to run back home, but I decided to be strong, and to control myself, and to wait till I get to college to fix things. It worked. My stomach queased on and off in the bus, and when I got to college, I felt loads better. See, problem solved, and I didn't even have to whine about it. I was actually very proud of myself. :)
Today was Histology practical. And I did something today which I should've started doing since the beginning of college, and now I'm severely regretting it. In Histology, before the teacher comes in, there are 3-5 microscopes on each long table, and in each one there is a slide of what you are going to study and draw today. Normally, I just look through them to get an idea, but today, I decided to focus my camera into the lens (it was so hard, you have to keep moving around till you get the right picture, and sometimes it even goes blank) and take a picture of each slide. The reason why I'm regretting not doing this earlier is because there is a certain test called ''spotting'' in this subject (which is coming up in the week following the 16th of April) where you have to look at a slid and determine what type of tissue it is. If I had taken pictures of everything I would've been able to do that! How silly of me. I will take pictures from now on. And try to recover some past slides, from either someone, or to ask the teacher to put them back on the microscope again.


Here they are:

Elastic artery.

Arteriole.

Muscular artery.

I swear, I still can't tell the difference. The test is going to be tough. I don't even know why I put these up. Hopefully, all you reading find this slightly interesting. Because I do. But that's just me. 

Then we had Biochemistry lecture in the LH (lecture hall). It was okay, I zoned in and out but atleast I knew what she was teaching, it's not like I was totally blanked. Then after that, we were supposed to have Embryology, but the Histo teacher came in and we had that instead. I really wanted to attend Enbryology, as this was going to be the second lecture, and I didn't get to attend the first one because I didn't come to college last Friday. This subject makes me feel like what I'm learning is actually making me be a doctor. Everyone has told me, including my cousins who are now doctors, that for the first two years of med school, it's all classroom work and you won't feel like you're becoming a doctor, it'll feel like any old regular college degree. Third year is when the fun begins, when you'r coming home late from the wards at the hospital every night, and applying everything you learned. So, I really can't wait for that, because the classroom stuff isn't exactly boring me, but it's making me feel limited. I didn't come here so I could feel like I am doing FSc again, or school. I came here to become a doctor. And inshAllah, I will be :) A good one.

I'm in F Batch, and today B and C batched had their Stage viva (mine is the day after tomorrow) so we had noon to 2 free, and I went home early. Napped, woke at 4:40pm, and now here I am, online. I am starving, my stomach is actually cramping from hunger, I'm not kidding. My parents aren't home, so I'm going to go scavenger the kitchen for food. There has to be SOMETHING.

My sister is coming home from residence on Friday! I'm really excited, 3 weeks has been long enough, seriously. The house feels so weird without her, I mean, it's like I've been living someone else's life for awhile. Hopefully, things in our house will return to some state of order once she comes back. Mainly because she can cook, and Mom can't walk, so that's a big plus point for the house. We've been living on milk and rusk and yogurt for 2 weeks.

Mom has to have her surgery by this week. It's not that she's in danger, but we all want her to get better. We're delaying it, because...no money. Seriously no money, and it makes me so angry that we can't get half the things we want because we're rally tight on cash. We go to Makro once, even twice a month for grocery shopping, and stock up like crazy. I haven't been to Makro in 3-4 months (with my family, atleast, and honestly, it's more fun with them) On the days Mom doesn't feel like cooking, we either go out to eat, or order food in, and we haven't done that in forever. It's even hard to ask my Dad for a hundred rupees, my ATM is empty, and I have no pocket money. Pray for us, people. :( The house is really disordered.

I have a Physiology practical to complete, I have to study for my viva, and I have to write a Physio assignment. Needed to list it all down so that I could know exactly how to divide my time. InshAllah it'll all be done by midnight or 1am tonight :)

I hope everybody had a great Tuesday! Comments are totally welcome, even if they're about whales.
