00:00 - 00:03 | Academic Rep, Sir, there is unrest amongst us students. |
00:04 - 00:05 | We remember the good old days of cardio block |
00:05 - 00:07 | when the worst was pressure volume loops from Nick Taylor. |
00:08 - 00:12 | But now we're stuck online in neuro block |
00:12 - 00:15 | and we're getting strabismus from looking at all these blind maps. |
00:17 - 00:19 | I know, I stayed up all last night |
00:19 - 00:21 | but I'm finally up to date with this week's kuraclouds. |
00:24 - 00:26 | Academic Rep, Sir |
00:27 - 00:28 | Krisztina... |
00:31 - 00:33 | Krisztina uploaded another kuracloud last night. |
00:34 - 00:36 | Krisztina said it's compulsory. |
00:53 - 00:58 | Neuro majors. Anki kids. Please leave the room. |
01:13 - 01:15 | What the hell! It wasn't on my calendar! |
01:15 - 01:17 | I can't even keep up with lectures, let alone online pracs! |
01:18 - 01:23 | I only got through half of Alex's imaging prac, |
01:25 - 01:28 | but I "committed" it anyway, just to see the tick. |
01:29 - 01:31 | And PBLs via zoom are a joke. |
01:31 - 01:34 | I have to get a peer to change slides for me |
01:34 - 01:37 | because my internet keeps freezing. |
01:37 - 01:40 | And clinical skills via zoom is even worse. |
01:40 - 01:42 | Sir, you can't blame Alastair for Covid-19. |
01:42 - 01:46 | No, but we can't possibly learn clinical exams via zoom. |
01:46 - 01:48 | Sir, zoom is not that bad. |
01:48 - 01:52 | In Upper Cranial Nerves this week |
01:53 - 01:54 | I thought my tutor was |
01:56 - 01:57 | demonstrating the signs and symptoms |
01:57 - 02:00 | of lateral medullary syndrome |
02:00 - 02:03 | but it turns out the internet just froze. |
02:04 - 02:08 | Neuro is just so goddam hard. |
02:08 - 02:13 | I can't tell the difference between the tectum, |
02:14 - 02:16 | the tegmentum and the tentorium. |
02:17 - 02:21 | If I wanted to learn latin, I would have done a fucking arts degree. |
02:27 - 02:29 | The other day in PBL zoom, |
02:30 - 02:34 | I swear one of my peers was private messaging |
02:34 - 02:36 | to the others about me behind my back. |
02:41 - 02:42 | And I can't tell if the people |
02:43 - 02:47 | with their cameras off are actually there or not. |
02:48 - 02:53 | So I sit there like an idiot, answering all the tutor's questions. |
02:54 - 02:56 | And Janelle said the other day, |
02:56 - 02:59 | we might not even get back |
03:00 - 03:02 | for gastroenterology block. |
03:04 - 03:07 | Don't worry, it'll be ok. |
03:14 - 03:16 | This social isolation is really getting |
03:19 - 03:23 | to an extrovert like me. |
03:25 - 03:26 | I'm not cut out for anki. |
03:31 - 03:33 | How much longer can we possibly go on for? |
03:40 - 03:46 | Well, I can tell you one thing for certain, |
03:46 - 03:49 | if we're still online for block 5, |
03:53 - 03:56 | I'm not doing a digital rectal exam on myself. |
