Paeds ended. Attended the review class. Got our marks. Short case, alright, expected. Written paper, quite ok :)
Care no more. Packed my things, escaped from this place! Yahhooooo. The journey was tiring, and I did not have even a bite of bread since morning, starved yet need to squeeze into throngs. Ahh, I don't mind. Something meaningful awaited.
Watched Real Steel on Friday. I recommended this after so many positive comments about it. Love the father and kid. The father was heartless in the beginning, but seeing their relationship grew stronger by the time, it nearly costed my tears.
Saturday. Celebrated sister's birthday. Gave her a treat at Chilli's Mid Valley. I ate so much until I got nausea, rushed all the way to washroom, the food vomitus was like coming out anytime. Kakaka. Sounds so gross. Ok. at least gave me so much relief after vomiting. Then off to watch Johnny English Reborn. Super hilarious. Love the storyline, love his idiocy. Simply love Bean.
Sunday was the greatest of all. Sunway Lagoon! The last and only visit was 14 years ago, was only 7, could only remember the beach and the clown. Ok. so many only-s. Got best price, went to Scream Park first. I really...screamed. At some moments, could not help but burst out laughing at some scenes.The 3D bridge was the best. The bridge was really rotating, an illusion jer. Much more to improve comparing with Genting's. At Genting, I was frightened until I ran like lunatic and even fell on staircase ==.
The amusement park and water park were indeed great. No crowds on Sunday. Perfect! Got into the lines, and got on rides in just mins! Some even have no lines. We played twice for few rides. Love that 'Snake Fall' the most. Time was great. Never be forgotten moments. :)
Back here in Klang. Back to reality. Gahhhh. Happy time flies real fast. Why??! And I want to go back home!!

It's not a happy ending
2 months. Gone. Swift. And my Phase 3A Paediatrics posting has come to an end.
Remembering before coming to Klang, I told my buddy, I gonna start the first posting with Paeds, she kept sighing. Ok, nobody likes to start their first ever posting with Paeds. Kononnya it's too advanced. One should ideally start with basic medical knowledge, according to what most people said. I was scared of course. Afraid of could not able to meet the standard the Prof and Docs expect us to have.
Much to my expectation, this posting is certainly stressful. The Prof and Docs requested us to read until management (which Prof Tan, Phase 3A coordinator said we don't have to)ok, almost everything need to be swallowed. Attending clinicsss (Neuro, Thalassemia, Child Health Clinic), Special School, Kindergarten, Educational Talk, Tutorialssss, not to forget the Ward Roundss. A lot a lot. Last time during 1st and 2nd year, all we need to do is simply stick yourself on the chair, open up the book and indulge. However, this 3rd year is certainly not the same anymore. You can't learn much if you just depend on the book. So, I went to ward in morning, at night. Elicit the signs bla bla. Back to room, all tired. Sometimes just slept flat on bed, did not read so much from the book. On the next day, could only answer half of the questions thrown by the doctor, sometimes not even half. Then, I think, I should also spend more time reading. Reading and ward, and there goes my time management upside-down. Sometimes, staring at the book, no idea where should I start with, too much to read. Gahh.
However, in just the 2nd week, I found that..I love Paeds. Ok, not because I love the stress, but yeah the kids!!! They are so so cute! Went to kindergarten, talked to a 5-year-old Indian boy, showing me his watch, his birthday present from his dad. I simply asked him what time is it, he just shook his head, then I saw he had his watch wore inverted. LOL. He's super talkactive. Talked to me like I'm one of the kids there. Too cute. Went to special school, saw some autistic kids and slow-learners. The school indeed helps them a lot, especially on how to be more independent, learn to write. Then-hyperactive kids can sit still on chair. Some even have stepped into society working. The teachers are not unlike Angels. Seriously, I would not be as patient as they are. Simply great.
Needless to say, kids in ward. Although mostly are sick, they never lose their comel-ness. Especially when they look into you attentively, gahh, cannot tahan the cuteness. Remember a toddler girl with short curly hair, standing up holding the grill and looked at us with so much interest when we surrounded her bed. Suddenly she sneezed at the face of our friend, then she laughed. LOL.Very cute.
Of course there are few sad cases happened. A 2-year-old kid, abandoned by the parent, was found in a box outside Carrefour, brought to hospital by the police. He was found to be deaf and blind. Sad, right?? Sigh. Thinking of how miserable his life gonna be like. He would not able to see this world, cant even hear a sound, cant even learn how to talk.He still could not stand at this age, not to mention walking, owing to the visual loss. Huge sigh. He can only Feel. He was discharged a week before EOP, probably to some orphanage. He's another real cute kid, but life is not treating him good. Pray for his wellness.
I'm grateful I have a nice Prof., considered so as they are more scary Profs for the coming Paeds posting for other groups. Jeng jeng,haha. Dr C who looks young, but certainly not so young anymore. And has a real fine sense of humour at which he can laugh at his own jokes ==' . However, his questions can be somewhat challenging. Dr Y who loved by the most of us, always put himself in our situation, taught us on how to take a good history, never make us so tense up, but certainly made us guilty on how cetek our knowlegde is. Anyway, that's a good sign to make us motivated. Never forget his typical grimace or expression he has. haha. And yea, his ultraman laser. HAhahaha. He's certainly one of my fav Docs. I wish to see him again during Phase 3B ;)
EOP= End of Posting. I did not do well, obviously. I disappointed the Prof and Doc, I guess. The 20-minute exam is certainly not a memory to be remembered of. But, I will remember the mistakes I have done, definitely. And will not repeat it anymore, I vow.
Not a best way to end this posting, but I had a lot of great moments in the Paeds Ward for the previous 7 weeks. Oh No, I am so reluctant to step into Medical Ward, to see the adult patients. SIGH
And yeah, this weekend gonna enjoy myself! Sunway Lagoon on Saturday!Bahahahah. CAN'T WAIT! Flying towards youuuuu, Friday!
