Count Down The Day (Monday)

Monday = Isnin

1) Hari ni ade presentation from Eva and others about Violence Against Women - how it can be prevented? Presentation yg sgt menarik (topik ni sesuai bg kat Eva) esp ade the only male in the group. Dr R. Kamath pun puji the way it was presented. Isu-isu yg dibawa kena pada tajuknya. Not to forget, one video clip at the the end of the presentation.

2) Having early lunch at 11.30am. The menu: Chicken Teriyaki from Subway (100% HALAL) and Barrista Caramello from Barrista (the cost is almost Rs200)

3) Ade community visit ke Kadekar, one of the rural area near the Udupi. Interesting trip. This would be the last visit to community setup. What we had learnt today? Type of house known as kaca (rumah separuh siap) with 2 rooms and does not have attached toilet. Inadequate lighting and ventilation (really dark when you go inside). Well become the source of water supply. Washing area is in the yard where the water used for washing drained to the plants (save cost). I don't think I would see such house in my place.

4) Study for Community Medicine End Posting Examination (malasnyer...)

Leaving Manipal (part 2)

List of things that I should do before leaving Manipal (continued)

2) Must meet with all lecturers (quite impossible for those who have taught me during the third year esp. at Karkala) ; not to forget a moment with beloved mentor, Dr reem Rachel Abraham as well as the most respectful Dean, Dr K. Ramnarayan

3) BUY LOTS OF SAREES!!! (18 pairs in my hands, maybe 3 or 4 more) ... this is for SALE! (Business-minded)

4) Buy books for 3rd, 4th and 5th years (mission accomplished except for some books)

5) Long last walk to END POINT!

6) Close the bank account (need to make enquiry for interest)

7) Take an auto rickshaw ride AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE (never get the chance after this) and also buy models of auto rickshaw (can keep them on the table in my room later)

8) A walk around Manipal and Udupi

9) Spend some moments with my dearest sisters (we already had dinner together) but before they go somewhere I wish to meet with all of them again

HAPPY 23rd BIRTHDAY, DAMIA

"Awk dpt 29 for obg"

Mesej yg diterima membuatkan aku terkedu. Terkedu dgn jumlah markah terlalu sedikit. Jika nak dibandingkan dgn markah semasa posting di Udupi, bagai langit dgn bumi. Mungkin bg sesetengah menganggap ini hanya end posting examination semata-mata tapi aku rasa ia lebih dr tu. It's just not a mere exam. It's more than that. Tambahan lagi mendapat markah yg sedikit untuk subjek posting yang menjadi favourite. Aku akui soalan yg dikemukakan merupakan soalan common sense. Ditambah pula dgn demam dan sakit perut, aku berasa kurang konsentrasi dlm menjawab soalan. The thing is, I don't want to use my sickness for that period as an excuse not performing well. Even it is just a minor test. Hilang semangat sebentar. Aku rasa bersalah terhadap lecturers yg telah mengajar dgn bersungguh-sungguh. Rasa tak berbaloi markah yg aku dapat dgn apa yg telah aku pelajari dlm kelas. Tapi mungkin itu lah hikmahnya. Supaya aku sedar. Dan mungkin meningkatkan usaha. Di samping berdoa agar Dia mengurniakan kesihatan yg baik semasa exam. Apa gunanya belajar kuat-kuat kalau Dia tak izinkan kita sihat pada hari peperiksaan. Markah yg diperoleh mungkin sikit tapi aku yakin ada banyak hikmah yang bakal aku ketahui pada masa akan datang.

IRONY of a doctor/medical student/health care workers
1) Smoking: Despite knowing the consequences such as bronchiectasis, chronic bronchitis, thrombo angitis obliterans (TOA), lung cancer etc.
2) Sedentary lifestyle: They know the importance of regular exercise and avoidance of stress, yet they still not bound with it
3) Drug abuse: Just because they are have accessibility to certain drugs (some drug abusers are health professionals! Just imaging it)
4) Some may not consult other doctors when they're sick (I would say I fall to this group of people)
