Bye Psychiatry

Prof Ng: 'After today, it's going to be at least 3 years before u come into contact with Psychiatry again.'

His words left me pondering, whoa, he's right, I gonna sit for my finals in 10 months time and start my career soon. There is no Psychiatry posting in Housemanship. I'm truly glad we are at least able to learn Psychiatry in medical school. I have to say Psychiatry patients are certainly difficult, most of them have very poor awareness of their illness. They may tell you they are well for the past 1 year or so, well in fact they have been behaving abnormally/aggresively and this could only be told by their family.

Talking to a Depressive patient is difficult. The stressful event that is so overwhelming easily exacerbate the depression in them. If I were them, I even question myself would I be able to withstand the stress? Or I might be like them, fell into the depression trip. I certainly comprehend the helplessness in them, I came across many close relatives/friends who were as depressed as they are. I have to say friends and family are the best support elements. My friends and I jokingly remarked that no matter what happened in coming future, we have to keep in contact, in case we need each other, or else you may see my face appeared on front-line due to a complete suicide attempt.

Schizophrenia and Bipolar Disorder patients are not easy either. They mumble a lot of irrelevant things, not answering your questions, suddenly shun you away because they lost interest to talk to you. It is very saddening to see teenager to be diagnosed with Schizophrenia. Most of them have their condition deteriorating and probably could not even get themselves a stable job, placing a burden onto family. Be aware of it, if suspected, get an assessment. It's always better to detect it early.

Have to admit Psychiatry problems are so rampant nowadays, it can be co-existing with any medical conditions you name it.

Not to forget all the lecturers, Prof Z who I mistakenly (or maybe everyone) assumed she is the most sternful lecturer. Well she is certainly not, she can be so motherly sometimes haha. Still, Prof S won the first position in me, the dedication and interest to teach students really inspiring. I learn the most from him, he may be the inspiration for me to major in Psychiatry later.

Hmm that's all. Next Orthopaedics! Let's be more diligent.

I give my first love to you

Not my story, but a Japanese movie with the title stated above kakaka

Spent a night watching this. My advice, don't watch this if you don't have a box of tissue with you. Quite an old movie, it does worth the time to watch this. 

The story is about a boy who has congenital heart disease with life expectancy less than 20 years. This story evolves around 2 little kids who grew up together until they enter high school. The boy who knows his days are numbered, wanted to push away his feelings for the girl and distant himself from her, because he cannot stand to see her cry or hurt her more than he already has. But the love is so strong that despite many hurdles they encountered, they could not leave each other. Until a day the boy brought the girl to have a honeymoon trip, ended up the boy had a heart attack after the trip. He died at age of 16.

I was immensely absorbed into the movie and imagined myself if I were that girl, knowing someone I love would leave me in anytime, and this made me crying the whole night. Tissues wasn't enough to wipe all the tears so I had to use a towel instead -.-

:')

Best line :'((

Orait, enough watching romance movie, gotta finish up the case summary. Sayonara!

Coffee moments

The Barista claimed this bottle of honey is authentic and costs a lot ~,~

Left: Honey Latte. Right: Latte. Honey latte tastes better, the honey adds to the fragrance.

Malibu rum + espresso. Once sipping, the caffeine tickled the taste buds. Upon swallowing, you could feel the liquor at back of throat. Good cup.

Too cute to resist. Gonna do this, when im free or rajin keke
