My Feet

21 August 2008

They hurt. :(
I think they deserve a new pair of shoes, maybe two… Hmm… Yes, that is how I will reward my feet when this elective is over.
My brain should start working on that audit report too, and then I can think of a reward for it. :)

Risk

32/G5/P3+1. Hep B.
Delivered.
Episiotomy repaired.
No needlestick. Nothing.
Sigh of relief.

End of Trip Thoughts

3 August 2008

My month long trip to Brisbane has ended, I’m actually typing this on the flight from Brisbane to Singapore. It is a 7 hours long flight and I’m less than halfway through it. I’ve just seen “Ironman” and am watching “Prince Caspian” right now. I obviously don’t find the latter all that wonderful, or I […]

The Seniors

4 July 2008

They were the group of people who helped me settle in when I first got to Belfast and throughout my 2 years there, they’ve continued to be great friends, always willing to give me that piece of advice when I need one. :) I am sure life in Belfast, especially the initial months, would have […]

Phase 5 Coming Up

29 May 2008

We had a 3 hours long briefing session for final year yesterday afternoon, and I think I have no choice but to accept that in less than a month’s time, I will be a final year medical student and that is how I will be introducing myself to patients. Not 1st, not 2nd, not 3rd […]

Last Bit Of Forth Year

23 May 2008

It’s been quite a while since the last update and I have certainly been ignoring my blog more and more these days. I’m in the middle of my last module, Perioperative & Emergency Medicine (POEM) and the fact that final year is looming ahead is starting to become more and more real. *gulp*
Enough of scaring […]

Freaking Out

6 May 2008

Why? You ask… Right… here goes…
1. January is 8 months away — Final MB Part 1 is 8 months away
2. Final years have finish their exams and have started on their work shadowing — Guess what I’ll be doing a year from now?
3. Attended a talk earlier today (? yesterday) on foundation jobs application (read: […]

The Waiting Medical Student

24 April 2008

Waiting, that’s the first thing most medical students learn to do.
In the “early days”, when you’re the wide-eye medical student, constantly overwhelmed by what’s around you and afraid of over-stepping boundaries. You seem to lack initiative, but in actual fact, it’s just because you’re a little on the shy side. You don’t know whether it […]

The Token Photos II

20 April 2008

Veronica’s birthday is coming up, so we went to Gingertree for dinner last night. There are 2 Japanese restaurants in the area, and I have never been to the other one. The rest assures me that this one is the better (and more expensive) one. I don’t think photos will do those sushi, ramen and […]

The Token Photos

20 April 2008

I have promised photos after photos… but nothing much has been posted so far. Paiseh… Busy with life otherwise, you see.
For starters, here are a couple of photo from the faculty formal about a week ago. It was all a little crazy. I got home at 5pm and the cocktail reception was at 7pm. I […]

Electives

21 February 2008

Got the offer letter.. WOOHOO!!! Brisbane, HERE I COME!!!

Chinese New Year — A Long Overdue Post

13 February 2008

Right, time to put something up to push that depression post down now that Psych exams are over and I did get to celebrate Chinese New Year after all. Life hasn’t been all that unkind to me after all… ;)
*singing*贺新年，祝新年，新年啦，年又年，爆竹声声催的响又远。。。
This is what CNY has been about for the past week…
Eating, hanging out with great friends, […]
