I am hopped up on caffeine and ready to go. Just a few more chapters. No sleep tonight.
And tomorrow I will have completed my first year of med school.
Some of the puns I have come up with tonight (a side effect of “cram mode”):
- “You got a question, I’ve got the ansa (cervicalis).”
- “Watch out or I’ll carotid-chop you. I am the carotid kid.”
I’ve also started singing “pterygopalatine ganglion” to the tune of “They’re taking the hobbits to Isengard.” This would also work with “stylomandibular ligament.”
I’ve also created anime-style mascots for each of the four parasympathetic ganglia of the head: Otic-chan, Submandibular-chan, Ciliary-chan, and Pterygopalatine-chan.
This is how I study, I swear.
UPDATE: The time is 3:36 AM. I am now watching a Mongolian Long Song video on YouTube. The way the singer manipulates her voice is just breathtaking — it sounds like the vibratos and grace notes of a virtuoso violinist.
This is anatomy-related because I’m reading about the larynx and all the muscles that you can control in order to make different sounds.
