Life
can be busier than I expect; stress can really be dessert; torture sometimes is
a blessing.
This is the start of my medical studies.
The first 2 weeks in college had been just like entering a new world. I was having serious culture shock.
Lecturers treat us like a colleague, talk with us like talking to a friend, inviting us for a home party.
Teach like a secondary teacher who want to make sure we truly understand all the contents. Playing board games and having some stimulating activities during orientation week. It's really nice!!
Lectures, clinical correlations, case discussion and doing dry labs were the weekly routine of the very first subject Anatomy. We were stressed out of the weekly quizzes, the speeding lectures, brand new academic jargon and the final exam. However, I did enjoy studying especially when I understand the clinical significance of anatomy, how did the body movement, how did the nerves run in between the veins and arteries and some hands on clinical correlation stations. It's fun to study models with friends in anatomy lab.
In clinical foundation medicine, the very first patient I encountered was a breast cancer survivor whose story really inspires me. The first patient's write up marked with red which showed my low English proficiency. Asking a friend to help me correct my grammatical mistakes, learning to take a medical history, feeling nervous and cold handed in my first patient interview, learning to do a physical examination and practicing all these skills with friends are great learning experience! We all are always better than yesterday!!
A convocation was on 22nd Oct. A very blessed day. This marks an end in UKM but a new start in Perdana University. Thanks for everything.
Joyce and Zheng Yi's car as well as our lecturers' were heavily rumbled by the falling polls in college parking lots which I think was dramatic. The bright side of this mishap was no one was injured.

I can really understand the
importance of doing the things we interested. It makes the days bright even in
the midst of struggling, at least struggle for something we want.
Having a lot of farewells for different visiting lecturers. Compassion, passion and humbleness are the things I learn from them.
First time thinking doing not well in exam doesn't matter as we can always learn from the mistakes. The matters most is the reason behind of learning the medical knowledge:saving the life of our future patients. This is the reason we need to always study hard and make sure we are ready for the future medical life. This kind of motive always drives me to be determined no matter how stress I am.

All in all, I am lucky and thanks to
whatever things. I know nothing comes easily and never took things for granted.
Because of this, I really yearn to contribute something to the society in the
future which had nurtured and gives me the chance of being what I want to be :)
