Documentaries About Health and Medical Sciences! :)

Hi everyone! :)

How are you today? :) I hope you all have a great day and had a great weekend :)

In this morning, I made a documentary list for me which are about health and medical sciences, to watch in my free times! :)


To be honest, I really don't like this type of documentaries which only tells and gives some information about a topic and there is nothing different in it. Even though these topics are about my future job, I cannot learn anything from this kind of documentaries! (And to be honest again, they are mostly very boring!!! -_- )

As a result, I made a list from the documentaries which can be interesting and from which I get not only a piece of information but also gain different perspectives about the topic! :) And of course for having a great time!

Here is the list! :) I hope you enjoy with them and like them ,too.

Let's come and watch together!! :)

1) How does your memory work?
This one is about the mystery of our brain and its functions! :) (Especially for Neurobiology lovers!)
The LINK!!

2) Clone
As you can understand from the title, this one is about cloning and the new technologies about it!
Here is the Link! :)

3) Ghost in your genes
This documentary is about our genome and its role in determining out biological structure!
Watch Watch Watch

4) Panacea or Poison?
This one is for the people who want to learn deeply about genetically modified foods and their biological functions!
Watch it from here! :)

5) Why are we here?
This documentary is about the origins of life and about the ideas of Richard Dawkins! ( I'm really excited about this one!!)
Look at here :)

6) Mapping Stem Cell Research: Terra Incognita

This is HERE!

7) From butterflies to humans
A documentary about all the parts of evolution
The video link is HERE!

8) This is Coffee
This one is not about the biological sciences but I believe that this one can be interesting all of us, especially the students who have to study all day and all night! :D Here is the effects of coffee just in a 12-Minutes video! :)
Watch it! :)

9) 100 Greatest Discoveries : Biology
This one is the one of the popular documentaries of Discovery Channel.

Turning Back Post! (Midterms Everywhere! :D)

Hello everyone!

I wasn't here about a month!
So, I have a lot to say about! :) Let's begin!


First of all, the last two weeks were my Midterm-Weeks (OMG!).. And I had Maths, Biology, Chemistry and Physics Midterms!
As you can understand,  I was completely excited about my VERY FIRST Midterms at the collage and to be honest, they were not as good as I expected before!
I think this is because that I chose a wrong study plan for the exams! Especially for Chemistry, it was a disaster, I thought that I would be able to remember the topics which I learned in high school and as a result, I didn't study much! On the other hand, I can say: "I couldn't study very well!" because on the same day I had Biology exam,too. As a Molecular Biology student, I preferred to study Biology -_- . However, it is not a valid excuse, because I had to learn and study for all the subjects not only the LAST day, but also planned and regularly!


So, in the end I've learned that University is not like high school. Honestly, REALLY NOT!!
Especially, I could see it yesterday very clearly.
Our last midterm was Physics and to be honest, I study for Physics not bad! I knew all the topics, I followed almost all the classes and took notes, and I solve the problems which are suggested by our professors. However, as you can expected, the questions in the exam were not the same with them! :D As a result, it was a disaster for me! -_- However, it won't be so bad next time!
Because I will change my study habits completely!

I don't want to say "I'll always study daily and I won't do anything else!"! OF COURSE NOT! However, I decided to choose 2 or 3 days for me to study all the topics that I learn in a week and as a result, I won't be behind the classes and I'll have 4 more days for me and my social program in a week :)

I hope that I can do it and I hope it will work as I expect, too! :)

So, one of my next posts will be about my 'exam - lecture - study days' planning! :)

Till next time! :)
Take care of you!

LOVE YOU <3
