My WeIrD wOrLdKeeping it real... since 1986. Feel free to comment me or write me any time! 7月11日 So cute! (that's not girly right?)So i've started uni again... and it's great! Believe it or not!
Although it's tiring getting up early in the morning when it's still dark, it's so worth it. I'm doing Paediatrics at the moment, and although it does suck sometimes to see kids who are sick (because of all the people who should be health, kids are at the top of the list) it does make you smile because so many of them are so cute (yeah i know, guys shouldn't use that word but i just did).
I've only done it for a week, but i have smiled so many times. Here's some examples:
- One of the patients that i examined was only 5 hours old, which I found was rally amazing because that meant that when i was struggling to get out of bed on the cold winter's morning, she hadn't even been born yet. Happy Birthday little one!
- Another little girl who i was feeding was only 1.3kg, which is basically the size of a standard meal for me :P or to put it another way, i'm about 65-70 times as big as her! Her hands were so small that when she grabbed my finger, my little finger, she only covered half of it. The Nurses though it was really funny because she looked so small against me when i was holding her
- I saw 2 babies born by C-section today, which is awesome as well. it's not ever day that you get to see two people brought into the world. And i have to say, that i was happy to hear them cry. As much as crying babies can be annoying,this wasn't so bad because we were there to make sure that they were breathing properly and everything like that. Crying tells us that we won't have to do much, if anything, and that the baby's already off to a good start
- There was another big baby there, 5.5kg. Which is huge! and he was younger than the other girl who was 1.3kg. Weird huh?
Don't worry, i'm not looking to have my own kids, it's always better when you can give them back! I just like the fact that a lot of these kids aren't really that sick and they aren't about to die. They have their whole lives ahead of them and we are there to make sure that they get off to best start possible. Meds like that sometimes, you see so many people who are sick and at the other end of the spectrum where they have multiple problems and aren't going to be cured, they might just be made a bit better for the time being. It's great seeing the little ones get better and go home, ready to live the rest of their lives.
You never know, i might see them later on, i might even teach one of them one day. I'm going to be learning from a paediatrician who looked after me when i was little, now that's cool!
That's enough smiling for now
:D
7月6日 And so it starts... againSo the holidays are over, before they really even started.
The clock keeps ticking, the hours and days keep passing, and life moves on no matter what. Here i am, feeling left behind.
So the holidays are gone, and uni is starting again for another semester of hardcore learning. I don't want to go back yet. These holidays are ones that i would rather forget really, but i would have liked more because it could only get better right?
So when the sunrises tomorrow, when my alarm goes off i'll get up, i'll leave home again and back to it i'll go.
The clock keep ticking, the hours and days keep passing, and we keep learning. I just wish we had another break, but sadly i don't make the rules
But nothing can change that now... so no point thinking too hard about it :S
Bring on the morning, the morning which i wish would take a holiday and come back in a few weeks
Semester 2, here i come, ready or not
Probably more NOT than ready

6月19日 FREEDOM!Little did you know...
while you were comfortable in your bed this morning, that i (sadly) was up and on my way to my mid semester prac exam, while it was still dark. That's right, the sun hadn't even bothered to get up yet. Nobody thinks straight at 7 in the morning, if you do then there is something wrong with you and you should get that checked, but that's what time i got there. sucks doesn't it?
So doesn't seem that bad right? well I wasn't looking forward to it. It was on our GP and Psych rotations.
Firstly i really don't like psych, of all the things that i don't want to do if i do a med specialty, that's at the top of the list. I just don't get it, it's not the way i think, but that's another blog all together.
Secondly. I want you to imagine you are a GP, anything can walk through your door. That's my
exam :P Or if you know the show "thank god you're here", it's like that, but on steroids (that's a med joke, if you don't get it, be happy).
It could be worse, but i didn't feel that prepared because it's hard to know what to study when it could be anything
But it's all over, and that's the best part!
Sorry if you are reading this and don't really care about my complaining, but it's my blog and i'll cry if i want to hahaha
holidays here i come! 3月8日 4th yearSo i've started my 4th year of medicine, another down, another 2 to go (including this year).
So far it's been an interesting start, i'm doing psych so you can only imagine what i mean when i say that!
But then again, it makes me feel more normal to know there are people out there just like me :P
This is probably gonna be the hardest year that i've had so far, so i guess we'll see if i can survive or not. A bit scare that in less than 2 years from right now, i am gonna be a doctor and i will actually be making the decisions
i know... I'm scared too
More blogs to come...
It's all a big competitionYou know what i reckon, Facebook is just like primary school. Remember when you used to have those competitions where you would go around and ask people if they were your friends, to prove to the other kids you had more than them? It's exactly like that, it's a game, and i think i'm winning :P |
