ART FORM

 

I believe that I turned avoiding insulin into an art form.  No, I do not suffer from type 1 diabetes or type 2 diabetes or any other medical condition that might require the sufferer to take regular insulin shots.  Actually, I’m biology major in college.  When I graduate, I’m looking to become either a biochemist or a genetic researcher.  Maybe I’ll get into the study of evolution.  I don’t complete agree with them all, but I love Darwin’s theories.  I’ve done well in most of my classes, though inorganic chemistry was pretty hard, but I see why a biology major would have to take that class.  The problem is I always do poorly on tests where there’s too many questions about insulin.  I have no idea why.  None of my friends or teachers can explain it.  I’ve gone over the subject of insulin in conferences and study sessions and seem to have it all down pat.  Yet, when it comes to test time I get almost every question about insulin wrong.  It’s not that big a deal.  I just won’t work with diabetes patients when I’m doing whatever in biology.  Still, I’m not doing nearly as well on tests as I should be.
