study day before exams/what i studied and what i ate and stuff
i meant to get up early today but i didn’t really end up doing that. went back to sleep because my stomach hurt and it went away so it was probably just anxiety. then i packed up my backpack and got breakfast (scrambled eggs, potatoes, overnight oats with blueberries and strawberries, black coffee) at around 8 50. i slipped an apple and a brownie into my bag also lol.
everyone on campus is trying to find a good study spot. good thing the classrooms with chalkboards aren’t very popular because i wanted one of those. i haven’t seen my friends all week so i messaged the group chat to join if they wanted to. around nine thirty i started by getting the last discussion post of the year out of the way (for lifespan psych). then i shifted over to reviewing cognitive psych. by that i basically created my own study guide of what i think might show up on the exam, since we didn’t get a study guide for this final. that one isn’t until thursday so i’m not spending a whole lot of time on it today.
what i really need to go in depth on is audiology. that exam is on monday. luckily i have a study guide for this one. took a short break to get some steps, then it was about 10 45 when i started trying to recall the stuff on the study guide. a little after noon, i took a break to go to the bathroom, refill my waterbottle, have the apple and brownie, and watch a little bit of community. it isn’t exactly a study motivation show but it makes me feel less lonely. then it was back to fill in the gaps of what i couldn’t recall. so much vestibular system stuff sounds vaguely the same. i spent the most time on the test battery and relearning those. i’m considering making flashcards of the syndromes, disorders, and diseases. i’ll see how sunday goes. reviewed reading audiograms because i would hate to blank on anything about those.
at around 1 40 i cleaned up the chalkboards and my stuff. then i went back to my room, had some white cheddar popcorn and worked on a crochet project while watching more community. then it was time to get ready for work. got there at four, clocked in, and it was insane. we were shortstaffed and had a line to the door almost all night. i went on break at around eight, had a side salad with balsamic vinaigrette and a twelve piece nugget mixed in. with water to drink because lowkey i don’t feel amazing. i was scheduled to ten, but there was so much to do that i ended up clocking out at 10 40. drove home, took a shower, now i’m trying to moisturize my hands because the sanitizer i used and the cold air are making them dry and crack.
now it is almost midnight. i need to be back at work before seven in the morning tomorrow. if i don’t update after this it is because i have died of exhaustion. if i don’t then i will probably update about sunday’s study day. i plan to complete my final paper for lifespan that day.
