Another random post on Saturday morning

I miss my camera. The plan is to go on a solo trip to anywhere in europe post exams. Just me and my d90 :)










These photos were taken a year ago, across the lake in Taman Tasik Titiwangsa, near maktok's house.

Apathy

Its been a frustrating few weeks. I'm not stressed or anything. I just feel indifferent. Almost bored.

I don't even feel like writing.

Onward we march

I honestly braced myself for repeats. That was how bad I thought it went. I had never felt as insecure.

In all my exams over medical school, this was the penultimate one. It marked the last assessment of the written or ‘theory’ part of medicine.

I passed. Alhamdulillah.

I didn’t expect to get as high, yet I still never did manage to get that ‘A” I’ve always craved during my clinical years. My overall CGPA was suddenly pushed into the ‘honours’ category. Again, totally unexpected.

The final 18% beckons.

At this point in time, according to my iphone, I have 99 days, 23 hours, 47 minutes and 58 seconds left till my final long case. And counting.

Only doctors



Only doctors can say, "I'm gonna need to tap that," and get away with it












A pleural 'tap' of course :)

For ye non medics, a pleural tap is getting rid of fluid accumulated in the lungs. Gah.

Easy does it



It's been a slow first week in Loughlinstown. I even took Friday off to study. Well that was the plan anyway. Cest la vie



As a medical student, I'm a huge fan of books that are simple, concise and straight to the point.

Bearing that in mind, I've made it a point to summarize my notes into simple, need-to-know facts.

Hey, if I ever need the gory details of meropenem's dosage in treating acute pancreatitis, all I have to do is ask google on my phone.

Here's a sneak preview of my latest 'mini-book'.
