no offense to the neurologists out there but i literally despise learning about the nervous system OMG
also felt completely clueless in anatomy lab today, don’t ask me shi about any ganglions

Don’t ask me shi about most neuro things. That all left after navle 😂

no cuz why am i just looking at spaghetti. also some of our specimen are just not well dissected for the nerves so it gets frustrating.
also cardio is so hard for me. its ok guys its not like the heart is important or anything

no fr is it an artery? nerve? connective tissue? who knows! i spent a solid 30 minutes isolating what i thought were nerves, then the prof comes over and rips them off (they were just connective tissue)

Makes me so thankful that I never had to dissect my own specimens.

How did you all do it then? I feel like I never could have learned anatomy if I wasn't dissecting.

It was previously dissected out for us, but we still had to go through and identify everything. We’d get a quick demo, and then get told to find everything ourselves.

But... but cleaning fascia off is so satisfying 😢

wow yea our dissection isn’t even guided, we’re given a cadaver and a dissection book and thrown to figure it out ourselves 😭 the profs are circulating to answer questions, but i really wish they were doing it alongside us bc 95% of the time we’re all like wtf are we looking at

Low key would prefer that because trying to find a small structure when your group or the group before you accidentally hacked it off is frustrating 🥲

Until you're off in la la land and you get told by the teaching tech that you're cutting off the fascia lata.......

Twas me. Sorry c/o 2028. I was overzealous with my scalpel quite a lot.

Generally you want to avoid la la land with a scalpel in your hand.
