Day 34: November 22

Two down, two to go. Specifically, maths and English. One point about them, though: it's really hard to prepare for both subjects, I think. Maths, you can sort of prepare - learn the formulas, go through examples. English is much harder. This semester, we're writing an essay (on The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time by Mark Haddon) and also analysing two stills from Yolngu Boy (worst movie). Anyway, there is only so much reading and going over notes you can do.

Thirty-four 'ologies' (study of):
1. Biology (study of living things)
2. Craniology (study of the skull) *
3. Psychology (Study of mental functions and behaviours)
4. Palaeontology (study of prehistoric life)
5. Entomology (study of insects)
6. Anthropology (study of homo sapiens)
7. Cardiology (study of the heart) *
8. Dermatology (study of the skin) *
9. Odontology (study of teeth)
10. Ecology (study of organisms and their relationship with their environment) *
11. Geology (study of the Earth) *
12. Hydrology (study of water) *
13. Kinesiology (study of human movement) *
14. Meteorology (study of weather) *
15. Microbiology (study of micro-organisms) *
16. Neurology (study of nerves) *
17. Oncology (study of cancer)
18. Pathology (study of illnesses) *
19. Radiology (study of imaging equipment - eg. x-rays and PET scans)
20. Seismology (study of Earthquakes) *
21. Technology (the study of practical arts) *
22. Toxicology (study of poisons) *
23. Zoology (study of animals) *
24. Aerology (study of the atmosphere) *
25. Alethiology (study of the truth) *
26. Bibliology (study of books) *
27. Cetology (study of whales and dolphins) *
28. Criminology (study of crime/criminal behaviour) *
29. Enzymology (study of enzymes) *
30. Gemmology (study of gems and jewels) *
31. Hippology (study of horses) *
32. Lexicology (study of words and their meanings) *
33. Museology (study of museums) *
34. Numerology (study of numbers) *

* means I used the internet for them. If there's no *, then I got them from my on brain (yes, I know there's not many)
