we treat our patients as a fellow human being, not who he is or who he knows.

today is yesterday's tomoro :)

friends

i watched 'Sex and the city' the other day n was very touched by the show. the story tells us that no matter where we are or how old we become, that good friends will always b there for each other thru thick n thin. good friends are hard to find, enemies are easy to make. IN's, glad that i found good friends like u girls..hope that our friendship will b as strong n forever like it is for Carrie bradshaw n her friends *hugz*

angry? sad?

just feel like crying out loud. sobsob. y do ppl always take ppl for granted? always appreciate ppl around u, that's wat i always feel, but y cant u do that? the ego....sigh. i donno la, ur just so to yourself. i hate ppl who always keep things to themselve n not let other ppl to talk to them or to understand or help them. sigh, i donno la. try to understand u more, n try to help, but ur just not letting us. it's so hard. donno wat ur thinking about, donno whether ur ok. am i angry? i donno. tired of getting angry. u always say that ppl don care bout u, but ur not letting anyone care if u continue to keep things inside u.

i just donno wat to do anymore. tried to make u happy but i cant. how can i help u? ...i really wanna know....

life

yesterday is history, tomoro's a mystery, and today's a gift.
we must live life to the fullest everyday. do wat u have to do today, live everyday like it's gonna b the last day.

mr. X opened his shop selling paintings, after all his hard work to save up money for this shop. but one day because of certain circumstances, he had to sell his shop away. his daughter asked him, "daddy, how come u can act like nothing happened n as if everythings ok?". he replies,"it doesnt matter if the most valuable thing is taken aways from us, the most important thing is that the memories of it will remain wit us forever"

hols!

1 week break after my exams, n it just flies by like that. it's saturday n only 1 more day of my hols. time really flies yea. don know wat i did this past week, but it felt so good just lazing around n not having to worry bout exams :)

my first shopping day after exams :) monday...shopping in mv that day felt so great after not being able to shop for so long. after our crazie shopping, we ended up in delicious cafe. i must say, the food here never dissapoints me, but everytime i come in here, the thought of that rude lady boss from delicious cafe in bangsar spoils my image of this place and makes this place from 100% to 2% ? luckily that day i didnt hav to see her face. seriously, who on earth would throw money (change) back to their customers, n then say "oopps, it slipped my hand" in a sargastic way.

ok, lets not talk bout her, coz it's really spoiling my mood. here are some happy pics for that day..

sometimes i wish i can just forget bout everything, let go of everything n just start again. if only....
but there's no such thing as 'if only'.
why m i so sensitive? y do i care about everything? sometimes i wish i didnt hav any feelings so that i don get sad... coz sometimes when u care so much bout something or someone, small things that dissapoint u really makes u sad.
so from now on i'm trying not to care bout anything nemore, just b numb to everything n not exect much of anything or from anyone coz when there's no expectations, there' no dissapointment....

cutie lil doggie

isnt this lil doggie adorable? :)

good old days

happy happy pics :) miss u guys so much......miss the good old days.

happy random shots

here's some random happy shots i took during my sem8 postings :)



...makan makan with my group members at this famous cendol place in seremban. too bad the cendol was not ready when we reached there that morning, so instead we ate up their delicious mini nasi lemaks :) ..hehe, i was taking the pic, so not inside ;p






pic of us being so hardworking, staying in the clinic even after all the patients hav left. haha, no la...where got so harworking one. we were collecting data for our medical audit after all the patients went for lunch that day











ss pic with sze siew :)

forgive, let go, move on...

my motto last year was forgive, forget and move on...it's easy to forgive, but not easy to forget. so i changed my motto this year.

some things really makes us very angry and sad...but i guess in life we always hav to follow this motto FORGIVE, LET GO, MOVE ON....

what has happened has already happened, no point getting angry over it. well, i was very angry at first, but i guess no point continuing to be angry rite? coz that wouldnt solve or make the situation better also. sigh...

goodbye...

when we're so blur in the clinics....he'll b there to teach us. don even hav to ask, he'll offer to teach u with an open heart. in the wards, he tells u which are the interesting cases to clerk. he lets u present cases to him so that he can correct u n guide u thru all the steps n questions that u need to ask to get to the final diagnosis. he doesnt hesitate to answer ur questions even though he's so bz as a houseman. if he sees ur so tired that day, he just cracks a joke to light up ur day.

he's a great friend, and a great teacher. thanx Dr. Khor for everything.
we'll definitely miss having u around.
goodbye my friend.

"as we move higher n higher, n we hold greater post, we see less n less patients. but no matter how high we go, we must always remember, who are we without our patients? thus no matter how many meetings we hav to attend, we can always put it second in line, coz our priority and first in line must always b our patients"....a doctor said.

really inspired by what this doc said today :) hope that all of us can learn from wat he said n become a great doctor in the future.

great doc

yesterday we were posted to rehab clinic under Dr. TR. i was so inspired at how he treated his patients......
a father who had a stroke a few months back was sitting in a wheel chair, accompanied to the rehab clinic that day with his son n daughter. he could not speak, as his speech was disturbed after his stroke. he suffered a right hemiparesis. his children did all the talking to the doc. when testing for his motor power, the patient did not co-operate with the doc. his son then spoke to his father in a soft spoken voice, "ayah, angkat tangan...etc". then when the doc asked them y hasnt the father been on all his follow-ups to the other clinics for his other health conditions, the son just replied "i used to bring my father there. but everytime when i do so, when i bring my father into the room n when the doc sees that my father is a post-cva patient, he doesnt even bother to examine my father. he just asks me a few questions then sends us home or refer us to u (rehab). we wait so long just to see the doctor. but when we enter the room, the doc doesn't even bother to take his bp. my father looks so sad everytime we come home from the clinic. so that's why we decided that out of all the clinics that we need to bring him for follow-ups, we will only now bring him to ur rehab clinic". Dr TR was very sad to hear that. he spent time listening to the patient's family n examined the patient from head to toe. he reassured the patient n his family that he will do everything that he can to help them. i think that day Dr. TR spent an hour with that patient n his family.

that day, the patient n his family went out of the room with a smile on their face. it really showed how much they appreciate what Dr. TR did for them. Dr. TR said, "as a doctor, we might not be able to cure every disease, but the most important part of being a doc is to provide comfort to our patients. even thou the patient came in with a hemiparesis and we cant change that fact when he leaves our room that day, but as long as he sees that there's still hope n that he walks out that day with the feeling of comfort".

i was very touched on how Dr. TR treats his patients. really inspired by what he did that day. we saw many patients that day. n every patient walked out with a smile on their face. i hope one day i can be a great doc like Dr. TR.

i was oso very touched coz these patients who either had a previous stroke, or head injury or amputation........were all accompanied to the clinic by their family members. i think family support is very important for these patients. family support is very important to everyone everytime, but for these patients, it'll be very difficult to go on if not for their families. totally solute those who are so strong inside, and hav the patience for the needy.

i learnt a lot from the clinic that day. i think that day, Dr. TR showed us what is the meaning of being a good doctor. everyone can become a doctor, but a good doctor is hard to find. hope that we all can become a good doctor and are strong and hav the patience for not only our patient, but for everyone around us, including friends and family where-ever and whenever :)

my first 2 days in sem 8

who says that sem8 is a honeymoon year? wah...my second day of ortho posting, n my legs are killing me. yesterday was my first day, so i thought it'll be briefings oni...so stupidly i wore my 34 inches high heels... then we had to go to the ward the whole day. -_-" my legs felt as thou they were gonna break any moment. i donno how i made it thru bj imu last time wearing heels to uni everyday. i feel as thou i'm growing old. now wear one day heels oso tak tahan d. then today i had to stand the whole day from 8 til 12...then again after lunch from 2 til 4 something. we had case presentations and ward work the whole day.
but all in all, i love ortho..so i'm really enjoying it. yesterday n today...we learnt lots of things, so for all the standing, it was all worth it. the case presentations that we had today were so interesting that time flew by so quickly....it was just 6.30am a moment ago, where i was struggling to get out from my comfy bed...n now it's already 11.30pm.
time to sleep now :) good nite!

i was looking thru some old pics just now...n i really miss u guys. ppl always say that the greatest times are the uni days...n i really agree with that. i think among all my school days, i love my taylors n imu bj life the best. it was so fun...really miss the times where we could just go hang out, go explore all the makan places n go shopping or watch movies. IN's, really miss u guys so much. someone once told me, "life moves on. we will hav our own life n u'll hav ur own. u will make new friends n so will we". yup, i guess life has to move on, but even thou it goes on...but i'm glad that we all still keep in touch n talk to each other from time to time. no matter how far we are apart, n no matter how many years it's gonna take, i believe that we will still hav so much in common n so much to talk about when we meet again. so til we meet again, take care my friends. miss ya loads!*hugz*
