Forced to Study...again!

OK, mum got me to borrow Martini's Anatomy and Physiology (I AM NOT EVEN SURE WHETHER I GOT INTO MED YET!) and now is forcing me to study it. She is now very pissed that I'm on AN and FB and not studying. Reminds me of the scary Year 12 days when my mum used to "spy" on me to make sure im studying! God, why does this have to happen on my birthday? Now I'm writing this in tenterhooks that mum might be watching me from behind.

Let her know that you won't be getting a break like this one in a long while, especially since med is a lot of work.

i dont know what i got into yet!
go for it, i dare you to stand up for yourself and free yourself from the manacles of curry parents (or at least make a start)
look your mum dead in the eye and say 'no'
then start playing tetris in front of her
then if things get dramatic, stand your ground and in the end she'll feel wrong (i think)

My dad told me to buy and start reading my uni textbooks two days after VCE exams finished. More than a year later I have never bought, let alone studied a uni book.

What I believe this topic is really about: HAPPY BIRTHDAY THUSHAN.
