Ruminating

OH GOODNESS. I'm currently so bored by this examperiod. I just want to be in peace and chill and write my thesis. My anesthesiology exam is in nine hours and I can't be bothered to finish the material... but it shall be solved since I will do so, because I have to. Took the internal medicine exam (gastro/entero) and got a 4, as usual... it was the weirdest internal medicine exam so far... for instance the professor wanted me to refer to another student as "obese"... very peculiar. The neurology exam from before was no hooray but I passed and got a 3. No idea how well anesthesiology is going to go, it all depends on how far my energy will last this night/morning... but I'm clearly not feeling this subject and don't know why anyone would want to devote their life to something as stressful as anesthesiology. Thankfully, people as such do exist.

Paris

Back home from Paris. Yes so we went after all and I couldn't be happier. No wonder people fall in love with Paris and France... I'm enchanted by this place and can't wait to go back some day again. It's almost insane how cheap and easy it is to travel from Debrecen to Paris, you fellow citizens should check it out!! So that's where we spent our days around Chrismas in 12 - 15 degrees Celcius.

We stayed at one of my favourite areas, Montmarte, close to Sacre Coeur and Moulin Rouge. It is not perfectly central as we had to walk for like an hour to go to the Eiffeltower or wherever, but I love the neighborhood and the prices are better there, too. Altogether we walked at least 60 km in 3 days, haha. We were there for 4 days but spent almost an entire day at the hotel for study-reasons. Sad but true...! It ended up to be the cosiest day though, the two of us and drizzling rain outside. And we had an amazing dinner in the evening mmmh can we rewind time please!?

My understanding of French is still very good (studied for 6 years until highschool), but when I speak there's only Hungarian coming out... My foreign-language brain has been invaded and occupied. Awkwaard because apparently I don't always notice that I start replying in Hungarian instead of French xD Ohh fantasies about being fluent in French and working as a doctor in Paris..!

By the way I was referred to as "madame" rather than "mademoiselle"! Aaaah whaat! I'm still "kislany" in Hungary which means "little girl" haha uhhh... maybe because Hungarian girls wear so much make up and I don't and look younger in comparison? Turning 24 here in a week after all.

Glad I asked

Some week ago, while sharing equipment with an acquaintance at the gym; the music is kind of loud and my hearing is already not the best:

- Wow Maria, you are really stressed.

I'm like, hmm... Not really feeling that stressed, maybe a little but trying to suppress it... but I probably look tired and maybe a bit tense...
- Yeah... I guess I am yeah.
- Well, at least you know about it.

A few seconds of silence... He probably means that if I know about it, I can deal with it.
- Yeah, yeah.
- Mhm... yep...

A moment passes by and something doesn't feel right...
- You said "stressed", right? That I look stressed?
- No I said, you are really shredded.
- aaaa SHREDDED heeeh well some days more some days less heeee I thought you said stressed hee-heee.....

Haha hello douchebag. I wonder how many conversations like these I'm having without knowing... I'm just glad that I asked...

Divaing

Back in Debrecen. Had a wonderful week in Sweden... studied more than preferred of course (while being at home), but got a gorgeous couple of days at the countryside with my family and went to a lovely wedding :)

How did yesterday's neurology exam go!? Nobody knows... and they are not posting the results so far... Yikes... hopefully I scored something more than just pass.

Picked up a lipstick that I've been wanting for a looong time. It's always sold out... so I ordered it to Sweden before I went there... hihihi. It's Diva by MAC and a bit darker in real life, compared to the photos below.

Flash vs no flash

My goodness, at last some time to stop by here. Finished teaching for this semester and now free to start my thesis writing and study for the upcoming neurology exam. My gym card expired today so I've taken this as an excuse to stay at home the whole day heheh... would almost be a waste of money to buy a new month of membership since we are going to Sweden tomorrow for a couple of days..!

Took some progress photos today though, without flash for once. How big isn't the difference! Took one with flash too just to compare.

By the way, when fitness profiles on instagram film their exercises... the caption says "last exercise, last set, last reps" etc... Is it really more convenient to film at this point of the workout or is it an excuse to why the exercise isn't performed perfectly..? My curiosity has started to bother me! x)

Above is my preworkout meal from the other day, yeeh. Naa I don't usually do "preworkouts", but this was my meal before my workout, so basically it's my preworkout. I bought apricot jam and it's soooo insanely good. Maybe I'm way behind in the jam-jam but, really, apricot jam is the shiet.

I've held three immunology practices by now hahah. I'm not a perfect teacher and learn something after every class... but I have a feeling that I'm pretty good. The two groups I'm teaching are very very different, like the class climate/atmosphere is not the same at all. One of them is super interactive and you can tell that they are curious, whilst the other is more like... my own group hahah. Moslty listening and not too keen on answering questions, mumbling the answers. Interesting! Really fun to be a teacher for a while... I'm happy I decided to teach.

Now I'm gonna go get vaccinated against HPV (very late I know) aaand hit the gym for some triceps and some cardio. At least cardio, not sure how much the vaccination will hurt!? Update: I was strongly unadviced to do cardio so it's a rest day... this means... time for lussebullar 3:)
