just handed in 2 assignments, another 2 to go T___T and both are super hard! macro about convergence and the 60% research essay for medicine *fearful*
it's like a make or break it research essay, that one. i'm honestly absolutely shaken about that. 60%!!! WHY did i take this subject again?! looking at the questions also can cry. among the 11, these 3 appealed to me (mainly cos i can actually comprehend what they're asking for lah sigh)
> Take a part of the body (eg the heart, the eye, the uterus) and discuss the history of its description by anatomists over time. You should use a lot of illustrations and discuss their production. OR you could discuss the history of a surgical technology, eg. wound treatment, obstetrical forceps, chloroform.
> Midwives v. Doctors
The conduct of childbirth remains an arena of contemporary medicine where historical disputes still matter. Have the advocates of midwifery mis-used/used history to justify their claim to better practice compared to hospital, doctor-controlled obstetrics?
> After the disastrous voyage of the second fleet, convict and government immigrant ships to Australia in the nineteenth century were remarkable for the good health of the human 'cargo'. How did this happen?
See the work of Robin Haines. You should also make some comparisons with slave voyages and Irish immigrant voyages across the Atlantic. Look up 'health at sea', maritime medicine, slave voyages and health, 'coffin ships' etc. You may want to include some immigrant diaries or surgeons' logs in your primary sources.
i'm sorta leaning towards the last one cos as interesting as the first one sounds, i am up agaisnt hopeful doctors/nurses (in fact 3 in my tute are already practicing -.-), and that is the only question we're allowed to used technical terms. i am clearly on the losing end.
sigh. this is only the assignments. finals are around the corner and hahaha i'm clueless for all my subjects. goodbye (already nonexistant) social life cos i am doomed. :( can i celebrate my birthday 1 month later this year? :((((
i hate it when i'm stressed cos all i do is SLEEP! and eat! argh! i sleep so much it's scary. productivity i seeek youuuuuu.
from this point forward, i will (aim to) give up:
*the internet (but somehow my blogging spree starts at exam seasons boo)
*the world outside wtf
*and most importantly:
AVOID LYING DOWN!   I WILL RESIST! SAY NO TO: 
BED = EVIL!!!!

Haha people, same hereeeee; the more I study the more sleep I need (I tweeted this exact same sentence before! But anyway). It's called mental exhaustion cos we were putting our brains into good use... so it's good thing don't worry!!
Btw, just to put my opinion in, I'd pick Q2!!
And babe, we're all in this together, you're not alone! Mwahmwah | |
