1. Keep your Routine Make a schedule and delegate a set starting time each morning. Try to follow your regular class schedule. If you’re typically in class from 9am-5pm, try your best to stick with that schedule reviewing lectures and studying. If you like to workout, consider outdoor activities or working out at home with online videos. Find a balance by allocating time for non-school activities, whether it be preparing healthy meals or watching your favorite TV show on Thursday nights. This is a stressful time for all of us, so it’s essential to continue to do the things that reduce anxiety and maintain good mental health. 2. Designate a Study Space Select a place in your home or apartment that has limited distractions. Make sure that you have ample room to read, write and do any other tasks to complete your school day. Sit similar to how you sit at school (upright, not slouched)! Make your study space a “phone free” zone to limit being distracted by texts and social media that suck up your time. Keep your area clean and organized. You’ll be spending a lot of time here so you want to maximize your usage of your space. Put on your work clothes (scrubs, business casual, etc.). This will help distinguish your work time from your lounge time. 3. Stay on Track Check your e-mails daily, or whatever your school’s primary form of communication is. Reading emails allows you to stay on top of your class announcements and assignments. (One of my classmates makes a Google To-do list when new lectures are posted. This allows all of my classmates to make sure we’re on the same page and keeping on top of our material.) Staying on top of e-mails is important, but don’t feel obligated to check your e-mails 24/7. Designate a time to look at them so you aren’t feeling trapped or overloaded by constant updates on assignments or events. 4. Communicate your Concerns This is a new situation that everyone is impacted by so there is going to be a learning curve. Have patience with yourself, your professors and staff. Everyone is doing what they think is best during this time. If you feel like you’re getting behind in a class or not understanding the material, reach out to your professor or classmates. Reach out to your school’s designated personnel when you need access to something or are unwell. Your school has the resources to help make sure your needs or concerns are met. 5. Enhance your Learning Without in-person lectures, I feel like I miss things during an online class because of distractions. Now, we have the ability to give the remote lecturer your undivided attention – take advantage of it! If you have questions about a lecture, take them to the book – the text book! This is a great time to open up a text book and utilize the extra resource that you’ve likely been ignoring thus far. Reinforce your understanding of the material by receiving it in a different way and medium.

Things that I learned on my optometry school rotations (that I didn’t learn in school)

The journey from third-year student, to fourth-year intern, to graduated optometrist is full of ups and downs. As much as I learned in school (and it was a lot), there are some things I only experienced once I got into my rotations. Here are a few things I learned along the way.

Tough Diagnoses

There have been a few patient cases that have stuck with me. One patient in particular had a medical history of a life-long systemic disease and that made for a very specific diagnosis and treatment plan which we created for her. Another patient had to be immediately sent to the emergency room; and the other patient was frustrated when I wouldn’t let her see the Optos picture that we took- revealing a textbook CRVO.

When I studied cases and conditions in school, I focused on the numbers, the signs, and the symptoms. If blood pressure is severely elevated, emergency care is needed. When optic nerves are swollen, a referral to neurology is warranted.

All of that studying did not prepare me for seeing those high-risk medical problems in my exam chair. I worked with my staff doctors to get the patients the care they needed, but was definitely relieved that the first time I was in a situation that required a tough conversation, I had somebody to ask for help.

Office Culture

On rotation, I went from being one of many students to being the only student.  I was so nervous about starting my rotation at a new office where I had only met the staff doctors a few times, and had never met the staff at all as compared to being at school where I knew everyone.

Though this seemed daunting at the time, I shouldn’t have worried because after a few days I felt so at home with the office staff and office culture. Being the only student to work alongside the staff doctors helped me better understand everything that optometrists are doing and prescribing. I was also humbled by the technicians, optical staff, and back office as I saw them work together with the doctors to create the best patient care and flow.

Living Alone

My rotation was the first time I had ever lived completely alone. Until that point, I had lived with my family or with roommates. Living alone was a major adjustment, with the end of a long day being the hardest, as there was nobody at home to bother and talk to.

Living alone requires that you go outside of the apartment and office for social interaction, which was definitely a change from optometry school, where I was around people all day.  I joined a gym and made friends with the people there, and I kept in touch with friends and family. Thought, to be honest, I still jump when I hear a bump in the middle of the night.

Preparing for boards

In school, I was surrounded by my classmates and roommates when it came to studying for exams and boards. However, during my fall rotation that was not the case, as Part 2 of boards was in December which was near the end of my fall rotation. I had to use my willpower and motivation to study, which was definitely a challenge after long days of clinic. I kept in touch with friends and followed a study plan the same way I had for Part 1, and am expecting a PASS this spring.

Relying on my instincts

My staff doctors wanted an assessment and plan for each patient when I presented my case, and because of my increased experience they gave me more autonomy than I had at the school.  I saw different types of pathology at my rotation than what I had seen in optometry school, and I had to figure out what all the signs and symptoms meant. Was that really a dot blot heme on the photos, or was it dust on the lens? Is now the time to begin treatment on the patient who was a glaucoma suspect? Are those cataracts ready for surgery referral?

It came down to trusting myself and believing in my findings. If I saw something, it was probably there and up to me to figure out what to do next. It made me more confident in my skills, interpretation, and judgment when it came to making the call for diagnoses.

Preparing for the future

Rotating through a private practice gave me true insight into the business of optometry. While the practice management classes I took were greatly informative and helpful, those classes did not show the true, day to day insights that come with being in an optometry practice. I was able to work with my staff doctors to learn about frame inventory, contact lens sales, vendor relations, lens companies, insurance companies, and front-desk operations. I plan to be part of private practice in my career, and learning the steps involved now gave me a full understanding of all the risks and benefits involved.

Doctor-Level Involvement

What does being involved mean after optometry school? A whole lot, according to the doctors I worked with. Two of the doctors that I worked with were former state presidents and had immeasurable awards between them. During my rotation, I was able to attend the state meeting and get involved in office and community events. One highlight was speaking to a Congressman about optometry legislation at a Kiwanis club meeting. There are ways to be involved after optometry school, no matter what aspect of optometry you are interested in.

crispy corn recipe | crispy fried corn | crispy corn kernels with detailed photo and video recipe. an interesting and popular fried snack recipe made with corn kernels and indo chinese sauces. the recipe was first introduced in the menu of restaurant chain barbeque nation as starter meal. but now it has been accepted by many other restaurant chains and also by several street foods and fast food vendors. crispy corn recipecrispy corn recipe | crispy fried corn | crispy corn kernels with step by step photo and video recipe. street food recipes or snack recipes are very common and a popular sought after a meal from a young and urban audience. these are generally quick, easy to make and more importantly lip-smacking in taste. it can be made with myriad options and one such popular and easy street food snack is the crispy corn recipe known for its crispiness and taste.

this is my second attempt with crispy corn recipe and i am revisiting as part of my clean up activity. the main reason i am revisiting the recipe is due to the fact that in my previous post the crispy coating was not uniform across the corn kernels. it was inconsistent and i was receiving the complaints from my readers. hence i am re-posting the recipe with a new crispy corn batter. my revisit was mainly towards the flour used as part of the coating. i have used equal proportions of corn and rice flour which makes it ideal for a crispy texture. whereas the plain flour helps to stick it to the corn even after the deep-frying process. typically the main issue while making the crispy corn recipe is non-stickiness of the coating to the kernels during the deep frying. but this recipe post should ideally tackle that issue.

crispy fried corn furthermore, i would like to highlight some of the tips, suggestions and variations to crispy corn recipe. firstly, in this recipe, i have used frozen sweet corn kernels which are already deseeded and also thawed. if you like to use fresh sweet corn kernels, you may have to de-seed it first and then boil in water. secondly, you can follow the same step and procedure with baby corn or tender corn shoots. you do not have to deseed them and use it as it is. lastly, the dish is served warm and it may lose its crispiness once it is rested. hence you can deep fry these with the coating and sautee it only when it is about to be served.

MAR ACTIVITY #ACTIVITY NUMBER : 4 Book review by - ANKITA PATTNAIK ( TAMING OF THE SHREW) #LOCK DOWN PERIOD # STAY HOME STAY SAFE💜 AUTHOR ( WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE  (1590-1592)

I read this engaging novel again in my graduation day's ... This novel is by William Shakespeare. The play begins with a framing device, often referred to as the induction,[a] in which a mischievous nobleman tricks a drunken tinker named Christopher Sly into believing he is actually a nobleman himself. The nobleman then has the play performed for Sly's diversion.

The main plot depicts the courtship of Petruchio and Katherina, the headstrong, obdurate shrew. Initially, Katherina is an unwilling participant in the relationship; however, Petruchio "tames" her with various psychological torments, such as keeping her from eating and drinking, until she becomes a desirable, compliant, and obedient bride. The subplot features a competition between the suitors of Katherina's younger sister, Bianca, who is seen as the "ideal" woman. The question of whether the play is misogynistic has become the subject of considerable controversy, particularly among modern scholars, audiences, and readers.

The Taming of the Shrew has been adapted numerous times for stage, screen, opera, ballet, and musical theatre; perhaps the most famous adaptations being Cole Porter's Kiss Me, Kate; McLintock!, a 1963 American western and comedy film, starring John Wayne and Maureen O'Hara and the 1967 film of the play, starring Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton. The 1999 high school comedy film 10 Things I Hate About You is also loosely based on the play. I would highly recommend this book to the readers out there...

MAR ACTIVITY   #ACTIVITY NUMBER 4 REVIEW BY ( ANKITA PATTNAIK) MOVIE _ THE LAST AIRBENDER #LOCKDOWN PERIOD # STAY HOME STAY SAFE ❤️

I find it a wonderful movie as well as magical and entertaining. It is very different from others and makes you feel that you are in the movie yourself. The actors have seemed brilliant to me and although they look critical towards them I see them wonderful, very fit and very involved in their role both in dialogue and in action. What's more, I recommend it 100%. There are many negative reviews and I really do not share the same point of view. Like any other film based on books, novels or series, the film does not have all the content that its original book or original series can have. It is impossible to put everything that happens in the chapters in so much time and I think that the criticisms that are of that are not well posed since the majority of films based on something originally done (and that of course has been successful) do not look like to the original or change many things, but it is for that simple reason. For example, Harry Potter, incredible saga of books and movies in my opinion also incredible. When reading the books there are many more things that in the film do not come out, and it is for that simple reason. Or as is the case with the book After, which the film has been released for 2 days and the difference between the two is very very big, but that does not mean that the film adaptation is bad, although you may be disappointed that some details do not appear. The amazing soundtrack, the special effects were VERY good, there are complaints that the names are not pronounced well ... Seriously believes someone that if they were said badly they would leave it like that, they say it perfectly (That can also depend on the dubbing made by the person who doubles each language, and in many languages change the words and pronunciations of these). I would also like to add that it is a very attractive movie and that I have not got bored at any time, I have been paying attention at all times. . The movie is beautiful and very well made. I think people expect this to be the same as in the series and esque, you can not really expect that. If it had been the same they would not have made the movie. I reffer to see the movie who loves the action sequence...
