orientation

a bit late..but i really love our orientation committee:) true enough, as what the theme reflects, too past too futurious. time flies, orientation is finally over, including my charity home visit presentation :)

and yes, the crazy week is over as well. mock osce, moral exam, first week of GI (gastrointestinal system). ah! i cant believe i was so stresssed over the osce. thankfully my question was quite easy, just normal chest examination for both cvs and respi system.

happy=)

cutie pie is happy because:

*queen bought her a green tea+red bean cake =)
*of something that happened during imu cup finale =)
*she played badminton today=)
*holiday is coming, and most importantly, she is looking forward to the family trip=)
*cant wait for all the nice nyummy tomyam,spicy food in phuket=)
*cant wait to have a break after all the crazy weeks-orientation,haemato,osce.
*she likes her new facilitator

cutie pie is sad because:
* of something. bleh. bleh. bleh.

happiness>sadness =) =) =)

something that my new facilitator told us today really motivated me, she told us that life will be like hell after we graduated. it is nothing comparable to now. but once you get through it, you will feel so proud of yourself. this really reminds me of the pre-u days in singapore which is like hell. but yet, i still miss those days, because i am really proud of myself for being able to stand strong and went through the tough period.so now, i tell myself, i can and i will sail through medical school=)

imu cup finale marks the end of imu cup. i lost the only game that i played for my batch-table tennis. heh, but it was nice playing tabletennis again after so long. on the hand, m206 cheerleading was really fantabulous. but but but, my batch's cheerleading is equally awesome as well=) some pictures that i took during imu cup finale.

nah, those are not my medals,i am just posing=P ( i love my jersey!)

look at the awesome cheerleaders=)

there are always two ways to look at things. the other day during a lecture, dr skc mentioned that after a drug therapy, the patient survived for two days. this is how an optimist will describe it. while a pessimist will describe it as the patient died after two days. hmmph. interesting!

this week is a crazy week. clinical skills practises, table tennis practise, blood bank visit, charity home visit, pbl, csu. there is no time to catch up the piled up notes at all. my goodness. i am so lagging behind for hematology. i used to like this system a lot in foundation1, but now, sigh. i just cant force those long complicated terms into my head. who cares about idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura when man hasn't even discovered the cause yet. yada yada yada.

anyway, we had table tennis practise yesterday =) i miss the time in mcnair where table tennis table is just so near that we can play whenever we want. i miss the time when i play with sj, who is sarawak state player. i miss the time when we used to play at hc. i miss the time in secondary school when i was the captain for the table tennis team ( eventhough i am not the best player). i miss the time when we play in a classroom during primary school, even when the table is only 3 legged. i really want to improve my skills. but there is just so little time, and i still couldn't find anyone that is patient enough to teach me. but but but, i will be playing for my batch next monday because we are lacked of players.

clinical skills practise. we had few practises this week. i think i am very robotic. somehow, it's just very hard to show concern towards simulated patient because they are all healthy individuals like us. and i still have troubles locating for apex beat and JVP. sigh sigh sigh. more practise!

i found a picture that i like a lot. somehow, i think i look really contented in this picture. it was taken at gunung dato, a hike i went during may holidays =)

hopes come with letting go. jeannie pointed to me this line the other day when we were choosing dvd at ss2. it doesn't make sense. how can hopes come with letting go. shouldn't we be more proactive and grab whatever opportunities that are infront of us? but i really want to let go something, and at the same time give up something else. yea, i know, girls are complicated.

anyway, the past one week had been hectic. exhausted-tired-fatigue. icebreaker-mass dance- treasure hunt- telematch. but so far so good. all the events were successfully carried out as planned :) just that, it is really very unhealthy to eat mamak for three consecutive days at around midnite.

the uncool M208 orientation committee =P

imu cup football, our batch got into finals by beating m107 with a score of 7-1 =) and the finals was yesterday. they managed to score 2-2 during the game but are defeated later in the penalty round. anyway, it was a good game. congrats to the guys.

so, do hopes come with letting go? i wonder. today is a significant day. a day that i shall remember forever.
