My Classes #1

      Long story short, I hate biology. I have been taking a biology lecture class all semester, and to be quite honest with you, it is dreadful. Not only is the class at eight in the morning on Tuesdays and Thursdays, but I do not comprehend one thing the entire lecture. I have to take the class for my major, which I completely understand, but I don't understand why I have to know half the things my professor is trying to teach me. All I want to do is clean people's teeth the rest of my life. My patients are not going to care whether I know about action potentials and neuromuscular junctions. All that will matter to them is how much pain I am putting them through and how much their bill is going to be. I try to study for my quizzes and tests for my lecture and I feel like I always study the wrong things, because I have not been doing well. I feel like my professor would have more of an impact on us if he would actually TEACH us the material instead of just reading the powerpoint slides. It also doesn't help when we do a chapter a week and have a million slides to study for each chapter. Yes, I was exaggerating, but we have way to many powerpoint slides to study for when over eighty percent of the material isn't even on our tests or quizzes. Another thing that makes me mad is the other biology lecture professor is really easy. Everyone I talk to that has him says that he is cake and he tells them exactly what to study and what they need to know. My professor leaves us in the dark and we have no idea what to study, so we don't do well. I am really jealous of them, because I need to do well for my major. Hopefully, things start getting better, but I really don't feel like they will. Yes, I know, I should probably stay positive, but honestly I have zero motivation.
