Anatomy and Physiology

I haven't done this for a while, in fact I think it has been nine or ten months. So much for the blogging excitement.

I recently went back to school. I currently have a bachelors degree in International Cultural Studies and I loved every minute of it, however was never really sure what I wanted to do with it. So, here I am going to school again and hopefully when this round is done I will be a nurse!

Back to school has been a whole new experience, a good one! I am really enjoying this class I am taking now, anatomy and physiology. It just amazes me how many little intricate details go into every little thing we do, thought we have, move we make, blink of an eye, everything. It is completely overwhelming and how I am going to get all this information to stick I don't know, but it is amazing all the same.

I guess what I am trying to say is that I am in absolute awe with the precise detailed creation that the human body is.

And if anyone can really explain membrane potentials to me in english and how they correlate with action potentials and the contraction of a muscle cell I would be eternally grateful : )
