giving report
Could someone please explain to me exactly what is a "sarcastic sense of humor"?????? Maybe I need to get out more, but personally I don't think 'sarcastic' and 'sense of humor' should be used in the same sentence especially in front of patients and relatives. There are more appropriates times for one to be sarcastically humorous and whilst receiving a handover report is not one of them.

Any advice on how to approach all of the assigned reading?
there is no "easy way out" when it comes top studying. you have to find your own rhythm and consider what your teacher state you NEED TO KNOW. before class, i would skim through the chapters, read what i feel is important. if the whole chapter seems important than read ALL of it. dont be overwhelmed, the teachers would like you to be familiar with content before class...its not like you will be given an exam on the first day!!! read a little of all your assigned readings, so on the first day the teacher does not appear like they are talking in swahili...

necessity of laptop, smartphone, etc?
in class all i need is a pen and paper...maybe the text book if the teacher in questions refers to text a lot. otherwise i normally do not bring textbook to class unless i plan to study after class. i bought a 14" laptop, coz the 17" i had was too cumbersome to carry around with me. i will upload my ebooks and will mostly use the ebooks as a quick reference. to study i know i will use the catual book...i am old fashioned like that! personally i think ipod, ipad, etc are great gadets to have not necessary but am sure i shall find my smaller laptop indespensible.
