口是心非

人们总是喜欢穿着衣服的谎言,不喜欢赤裸裸的真相,这句话一点也没错。

The hunger games

Life is always unfair. The rich and the poor, the strong and the weakling, the healthy and the ill, the successful and the failed. We can't really do much about the natural selection, but we can to a certain extent, choose how we would want to live our lives. We cannot change the facts like who we are, what kind of society we are born into, our parents, but we can identify our strengths and make the best out of them and be successful in life. Of course, we have to acknowledge and embrace our weaknesses as well, for we are human and nobody is perfect. Sometimes flaws can get us further in our lives. Sometimes mistakes are inevitable to help us improve. Whatever we do, most importantly we need to have faith in ourselves. Faith is what keeps us going in our dark times when everything else seems impossible. Hang in there and show life what we have got. Live life to the fullest everyday. Only then we will not regret in the future. So let's go out there and live like there is no tomorrow. At the end of the day, the world may only acknowledge one winner, but as long as we do our best, everybody is a winner.
P/s: We are the ones who have to deal with the consequences of our own actions. Hence, do whatever as deemed right, as long as you don't have to toss and turn in bed at night with insomnia due to guilt. Act wise. What goes around does come around.
Happy hunger games!

At LCCT

Hello guys. Yes i am at lcct at this hour. 2.30am in the morning. Waiting for my early flight back to penang. Life has been hell since i started my clinical phase at melaka. Tests, homework, being made to copy stuffs for many times, scoldings etc. I would be happy to just hav 7 hours of sleep during the weekdays. Perhaps only with the o&g posting it's not that great. In a blink of eye i'm already done with the posting. Moving on to the medicine department with fingers crossed, hoping that it'll be less hectic for the next 1.5 month. Seriously, i need more breaks.

Variable

Drawing a line is the most difficult thing to do in the world, because nothing is definite and nothing is permanent. there's always exception. we hate people to do something sometimes and yet when we do the same we feel that it's okay.
or, today's yes could be tomorrow's no. your misfortune could be someone's treasure.

****

1. humans always contradict themselves.
2. everyone's perception differs.

****

Everything is always easier said than done.

Nothing to do

Well, it's not that i really have nothing to do, it's just that i'm too lazy to do anything. homework and books are piling up and yet i chose to close one eye. i'm just getting better and better at procrastinating. argh i hate my self for this! my laziness always gets the better of me :(
Now, some quick updates:
Currently i'm in the clinical phase already, which means i'm having postings in hospitals with different departments, namely Medicine, Psychiatry, Community Medicine, Paediatrics, Obstetric and Gynaecology, and lastly Surgery. Now i've finished 3 already, gonna finish the fourth one in another week(thank god!). My experience? It's kinda tiring to be standing all day long but overall it's still considered good. We learn to examine patients and apply whatever we've learned in the past two years into practice.
frankly speaking, every single day i have only 2 things in my mind during my posting: 1. what time is the class ending? i want it to finish asap. 2. i hope the class is being cancelled.
I even dreaded to go for classes on some days. What has happened to me? I think the major problem is the communication problem. I don't speak the Indian local language and it's kinda hard to talk to them. Even if i know how to speak, I don't know what they are telling me and yet we are supposed to ask tonnes of questions in order to get a freaking GOOD history from those patients. worse still, for those who even know how to speak english, i still have problem understanding them and they have problem understanding me too(their english is crappy). to even start the conversation i feel damn frustrated already. i just hope that the remaining less-than-two months can pass quickly.
Recently my mind has not been very productive, maybe because i watch less dramas and also those clinical postings tire me so much that i simply don't have time to do ponderings. However, fear not, i still spend time thinking each and every one of you, my dear friends. i really miss all of you very much.
alright, it's time for me to sleep. good night and merry christmas people! gotta go! =)
p/s: i was reading back my own previous posts and i was kinda impressed by my own thoughts and writings. lol. i guess my english is deteriorating. hah. alright ignore me. and thanks for reading this piece of crap. byeeeeeeeeee

Another random

I superlike this line written by a good friend. "We play, we crap, we laugh and we share! Because we're friends!" I miss my old friends...

By the way, here's something to ponder:
1. Repetition does not make something a fact or a truth.
2. I still think that silence is golden. The more you talk, the more mistake you make. there is a chinese proverb saying 祸从口出.
3. If u cannot ameliorate something, at least make some effort to prevent it from becoming worse.
4. Great minds think alike, and fools seldom differ too.
5. People say, seeing is believing. I say, observe and think carefully(perhaps 1000 times are still not enough), life is full of possibilities and sometimes what you see is a very small part of the whole picture. Never ever just touch the surface of the water and say you had dived into it. Every event has more than one side story. Be the judge yourself.

Random

1. I wish to just do nothing. Tests, can you just leave me alone?
2. Money isn't everything. "we cannot live without money" doesn't give u a right to be money-faced.
3. Ppl only do things that benefit themselves. i guess i'm too kind?
4. I'm a porcupine.
5. If only ifs are real...
6. Humans are flawed.
7. It is difficult to live in lies. whatever you are lying for, make sure it's worth the lies. Lie wisely.
8. Whatever happens, happens for a reason.
9. Sometimes a fool leads a happier life than an intelligent person.
10. The one i trust the most is not a who but a what - my instinct.

假日

今天是 Good Friday, 刚好是难得一年才有十天左右的假日其中之一。趁着刚开学不久,还没酱多功课,赶紧把已在hard disk 里很久港剧看完。真是好难得有得轻松啊!!虽然才回来一个星期,上的课也不多,但也足以让我觉得很累很累很累了。可能是因为这个sem即将要考uni exam吧。唉,想到就很显。。。

有谣言说星期一会有放假,真希望那是真的,酱我又有得休息多一天了。呵呵,懒惰的我就是这样,总是觉得假期不够多,不够长。有了一天,就会想要有另一天。

人,总是贪得无厌。。。

Haunted

Hehe. This post is not about ghosts or anything superstitious.

Human beings are always haunted. By what? One’s unresolved past. We always thought we are lucky enough to have escaped from something troubling us and tend to forget it, without knowing that the problem is silently incorporated into our lives n will strike us again one day. E.g. tomorrow is your test, you are not in time to finish your study but with luck somehow you manage to do well(or at least pass) in the test. You thought, phew, I don’t have to worry bout the unfinished portion because the test is over, n u don’t study for it. But, when the final exam comes, you will be haunted by the unfinished portion again n you still have to study for it.

That is only a small prob faced by students. In real life, there are a lot more problems(health, money, relationships etc) to be encountered, n to be solved. If u do not solve it, n u think it is over, then u r wrong. THE PAST WILL ALWAYS COME BACK TO HAUNT YOU. I’ve experienced it lots and lots of times. The same problem keeps getting back to you and it could be worse than the last one. There will be only 3 outcomes: 1. You face the prob, solve it and will never be bothered by it any longer; 2. You dodge a little here n a little there and somehow endured the prob without solving it, and u will run into it face to face again next time; 3. You run away from the prob and the next time u see it, the prob is amplified.

Therefore, if possible, always try your very best to face and solve your problem there n then. Haha, well, I’m not really fit to say this, because I always procrastinate and “only see to those emergency matters - those that I really hav no choice but to solve it” has been my policy. =P but i'm trying to change now because i realised certain aspects like health really cannot be ignored.

Anyway, it’s always a great reminder for u if u wanna improve urself to be a more efficient person. =)

That's all for now...

Happy New Year

Well i know it's still a bit early for this post, but i'm afraid i would not hav time to update this long-deserted blog later, as today is my last day off.

Anyway, i would like to wish everyone a happy new year here. hopefully in the brand new year, it'll be a smooth sailing throughout for all of us. and for year 2010, i'm not gonna make any new year resolutions anymore. i mean, lets face it, i never keep to any resolution i made n so i think there's no need to waste my effort trying to figure out things that i probably will not achieve. however, that does not mean that i stop improving myself. i'll always keep trying to become a better n smarter person.

I realised that i've been sort of 'missing' for quite a long while. Sorry about that my friends. Indeed i hav been busy n when i managed to find time for myself, i often just ended up watching show or sleeping or just simply dreaming. It's not that u all r not important but i'm scared that the more i chat with u all, the more i'll miss the times we used to be together gossiping, having fun, talking nonsense... Now we could only meet once in 6 months, some annually, some i have not even seen for 2 years or more already. i just hope all of u r doing great, wherever u go n whatever u do.

A bit of update of my life: currently i'm in the 2nd year of the medical course. i've said byebye to anatomy(yay!), physiology n biochemistry(those r the first year subjects) n hello to pathology, pharmacology, microbiology n forensic medicine. hell, 2nd year's workload is definitely humongous compared to first year's. we hav to do tonnes of homework, attend boring lectures, study like mad, not to mention to complete a stupid mentored student project. sigh, life... it sure is a struggle for lazybums like me, especially the homework part. i've never been so diligent before in my life n yet my diligence is still nothing compared to others. to hardworkers: if u r wondering bout my degree of diligence, hehe, let me tell u, i'm not capable of being hardworking at all. maybe it's just 20% of yours? n to lazy ppl, high 5! we r one of a kind, n u can most probably understand how 'hardworking' i m. haha.

Here is something i would like to share: the law of attraction. if u read a book entitled 'the secret'(which i never did) or watched the movie, u'll know it. the law of attraction states that u will attract whatever that is in ur mind to u if u keep thinking of it. for example, u keep thinking very very hard that u will get a lot of money, the money will come to u. but, the same goes for the opposite. if u keep thinking hard that u do not want something to happen, that something will still happen as u fear.
to some extent, i find this law of attraction quite true n it really works(in an unexplained way). i'm not saying that u just hav to sit there n keep thinking of everything u want to be done. of course, u hav to do something urself for ur dreams to come true. the good that we could make out from this law is that we should always think of something we want n not waste time thinking of something not wanted.

Alright, there goes an update to clear the dust n spider webs here. I had better stop typing. Friends, i miss u all. Will see u all 2 months later(March). Take care. N wish u all a very HAPPY NEW YEAR!!

Light n darkness. Which is faster?

I was feeling bored seems like it has been ages since i last updated my blog. haha. well actually there's nothing to update. just wanna share a meaningful sentence here.
quoted from criminal minds:

they say light has the fastest speed in the universe, but light reaches every place only to find that darkness had conquered it first.

there'll always be something wrong before right comes. bad before good. failure before sucess. poor before wealthy. etc. it's the nature of life which cannot be defied...

right now i hope the darkness -- exam surrounding me end faster so that i can go back to my real home n play for one month. lol.

there. an update. hope it's thought-provoking. :)

Diamond and graphite

Diamond and graphite r both made of carbon atoms, but y do their prices differ greatly? Who doesn't like diamonds, n who would hav wanted to buy n treasure graphite?

Well, the answer is really simple. Diamond is rare compared to the abundant graphite, which makes it so precious n expensive. Diamond is formed under a very high pressure, while graphite results from low pressure environment. Diamond can be turned into graphite under high temperature, but graphite cannot be transformed into diamond.

Likewise, compare diamond n graphite to human beings. if u can withstand high pressure n turn out to be just fine, u'll be a diamond loved n appreciated by other ppl. but beware, if u r too arrogant, always causing ppl's blood boiling(this is where the high temperature comes into picture), ur value may drop n u'll turn into graphite. if u already succumb to high pressure in the first place, don't bother to be a diamond. u just can't make it. cruel but true.

I want to be a diamond. :)

ps: pls pardon me for the simple english n short post. long time no write. gotta clean the rust in my brains d. hehe.

Living life to the fullest

Being back to Malaysia is all bout enjoying! I've been back for more than 1 week n all i did was eat, sleep n play. eat n sleep is more for the first 3 days of my return, the rest of the days i went to kl, met up with some intec friends, mmmc friends n also some of my old 5.0 classmates.
The only fun part of my kl trip is singing k(3 times in 4 days!) n playing cards. i'm glad that i went for this trip although i din get to shop cos i got to gamble!!! there's no kaki at all at sp(what a sad fact).... the reason i din get to shop is cos the hotel we stayed is near area of sungei wang, times square etc . i'm not a big fan of sungei wang n i dont really like times square either. the only place suitable for shopping there is pavilion, but it's kinda far n at the moment u actually reach there, u'll be half dead d.

things that sadly i did not get to do:
1. shopping
2. watch a nice movie
3. eat really good food(example: italianies, pasta de gohan, or even dragon-i) because times square n sungei wang simply dont hav these places
however, i ate kim gary for twice, if u want me to 勉强 consider that as REALLY good food(it's good, but not THAT good)
n the only heavenly food that i ate was ice cream fondue(found only at pavilion's baskin robbin, HIGHLY RECOMMENDED)

being the so-called gambling queen, i play cards every night, hehe. this year i hav no luck i guess, lost bout rm40+ at the first night itself. but no matter what, i'm still happy cos i can gamble, n the person who won the money actually use the money to subsidize for singing k at redbox. the other nights my friends hav no money d so we just play cards, din gamble.

well, some ppl said they r gonna use this 1 month holiday study but obviously that will not be me. i felt that i deserve to just relax during this holiday. dont care bout the other stuffs. there's no point torturing myself when i know that i'm gonna be tortured for 6 months in less than 3 weeks later. so, living life to the fullest during this holiday = eat, sleep, play, waste money =P

Some quick outdated updates

can't believe that this is my first post in the brand new year. usually ppl start with their resolutions. i'm done with making resolutions because i know that i wont follow those stupid plans. i'm not a rule-adherent person n i dont like to follow plans, timetables etc. i prefer flexibility n spontaneous stuffs. there is more fun. unpredictable. full of surprises.
and now for the updates:
i've shifted to new hostel, which is kinda expensive, but it's very near my lecture hall n has a small kitchen sink, so i guess the pros did outweigh the con(trying to convince myself that i did not spend too much money on accommodation, hehe).
i'm going back to malaysia on 6th feb, reaching on the 7th, holiday for a month! yay! can't wait for it. but sadly before that, i gotta endure the following torturous 16 days full of study, tests n exams. n this aging brain of mine sadly doesnt help by being less accommodative with memories. n the only compensatory mechanism i hav is to pray more(to study more is impossible, for non-medical-students' information, n for me, to study everything for once is already a big accomplishment!). haha.
we do hav a day off for chu 1. it's not good in a way that we hav to rush our syllabus more. sigh. but anyway i'm still grateful for that break. seriously need it.
recently i learned in nutrition lecture that eating vegetables interferes with the absorption of zinc ion n fat-soluble vitamin, hence giving me another reason to not like eating vegetables. hehe. i know it's lame, cos it's the only disadvantage of eating vegetables.
it's kinda abrupt to stop here, but i shall stop now anyway, dont wanna doze off in class tomorrow. will continue next time. to william n pat, hope u all r enjoying urselves at deustchland. i'll definitely go visit u all someday. hehe. dont forget to treat me when the time comes, as promised. =)

another wasted night

Merry Christmas!!!

i've removed this post because i think it kinda doesnt sound like me in the complaining part.

retype: this is the pic i managed to grab from friendster, it certainly does not hav all my good friends in it, but it's the best pic i could find(cos i seldom upload photos, lazy, hehe)
I miss all my friends(sp, intec etc). I'll always treasure our friendship. Miss those days when we hang out together.
Merry christmas n happy new year in advance! =) =)

Results

Got my first block exam results today. At MMMC(melaka manipal medical college) here it's very scary, they paste the everyone's result details on the board. so we'll know who got distinction, who failed, who is the top student etc etc.
anyway i'm not the top student la, of course. hehe. din study finish for the exam, so din expect very good results also. i'm very happy that i passed my anatomy, which i thought i've flunked it. also, i'm happy that the marks i got for physiology n biochemistry actually achieve my target. dont wanna mention my marks here. it's kinda embarassing. overall i'm contented but i'm not very proud of the results. i hav to stop procrastinating from today onwards! i just cant seem to find the spirit to study. the spirit has been long lost since form 3 i think. it's just very difficult for me to study everyday. lack of motivation. but this has to stop now. i wanna be better. i need to be better. i need to escape from laziness. wish me luck!

2.5 months

That's right. It has been 2.5 months. Everything past in a blur. Things just come n go. Just like that, block 1 is over. N immediately after the 1st block exam, IMMEDIATELY, classes for block 2 started. No relaxation, no resting, no relief, nothing. We hav to just keep moving on. It's life. Not just any life. The life of a medical student. Full of sacrifices, sufferings n stress. It's the life i've chosen. To myself n all who chose this course: Just hang in there. We'll make it through.
