Getting Lazy


Recently most of my fellow bloggers are getting inactive. I am not an exception as well. I wonder why I have no motivation to update when others are not updating. Now I know why I am blogging. Mainly because most of my friends are blogging and I just joined them for fun. Since this is my 78th post, I will make another 2 posts to make it 80 posts and quit. Really lazy to manage my blog anymore......

Copyright

I think everyone must be familiar with Seven Eleven right? However, do u ever see or visit Seven to Seven or Eleven Shop which have almost similar logo and sell exactly the same thing?



Old Town White Coffee is not strange to everyone. Again, have you ever drink coffee in Old Town Coffee or Old Street White Coffee which can make the coffee as nice as the former coffee shop?

Basically, they just hope that people mistaken the shop and enter theirs. Free publication......

Actually, is it against the law in terms of copyright???

大选风云 1

大选期间,
各党各派各出奇招博宣传。
有的贴海报,
有的送赠品,
有的甚至打着口号来拉票。
这是一则发生在槟岛的海报战。


结果呢?
被占了便宜。
下次选口号或贴海报时须机灵一点,
以面又被对方趁虚而入。



候选人A:你曾经许下诺言将在十年内把槟岛发展成和新加坡一样,结果现在呢?你该如何交待?
候选人B:对啊!已经实现了。现在的槟岛不是和十年前的新加坡一样进步吗?大家应有目共睹。
(林干的学徒还真多。。。。。。)

EOS 7 - Day 5


Result release day. Mixture of happiness and sadness. The happy part is most of us pass the exam and is allowed to proceed to semester 8. Congratulations to Kee Huat, Hao Chun, Edwin, Joanne and Hannis who are awarded distinction. The sad part is 3 of my batchmates could not make it :(

Anyway, happy holidays to all my C107 batchmates.

*My birthday wish did not come true......:(*

EOS 7 - Day 4


Today is the last day of my exam. And again, 8 stations with 3 rest stations. However, we are given 10 minutes for each station so time shouldn't be a problem for today's exam. Overall, most of us did better than yesterday. Really hope all of us can pass.
*Not going to touch my text book for 2 weeks. Wanna have a rest :)*

EOS 7 - Day 3


Finally, we survive the 3rd day of exam. Eight stations and three rest stations. Again, 5 minutes for each station - taking history, counseling or physical examination. And again, sweat all the way until the last station which is a rest station for me. Hopefully can pass today. Tomorrow will be the last......really last :)

One last night for revision. Tomorrow gonna rech at 730am to be quarantined. Really can't wait to finish the exam :)

Teoh-Chew Ah Di



Just wanna introduce my housemate, Teoh-Chew Ah Di.

Why this name? Actually the name is given by the mixed-rice stall's Boss in Rasa Jaya Foodcourt (RJF) who is also Teoh-Chew lang. TCAD, Dato Chua and I always went to RJF for lunch. I wondered since when the boss start noticing him. One day, they finally introduce to each other and since then, they are very friend to each other.

How close are they? We even got a free drinks from him. The boss said is a gift for Chinese New Year. Cheap food and free drinks, think Dato Chua must be happy to death. He even invited us to his house. Really nice. He also asked my TCAD to go for fishing...hehe.

So lucky to have this housemate. Understanding, helpful, brilliant etc...... Not to forget, he is still single and available :)

EOS 7 - Day 2


Second day is OSPE. Twelve question-answer stations and nine rest stations. A total of 1 hour and 45 minutes of suffering. Again it is SPEED, AGILITY & QUICKNESS because only 5 minutes allocated for a station.

However, today I am not doing well compare to the paper 2 days ago. Actually overall is not too hard, but just I have insufficient time to think and organise.
Anyway it's all over. At least I know what to practise for my OSCE which is on next Monday :)

EOS 7 - Day 1


Today is the 1st day of my EOS 7. First paper is Short Answer Question (SAQ). Although it is named 'short answer', some of the answers are not short at all. Two and a half hours for fifteen questions, means 10 minutes is allocated for every question.

Overall, the paper is not as difficult as I think. All of us shouldn't have a problem to pass this paper. The only problem I encountered is limited time. I am rushing to answer most of the time and just able to finish it when we are requested to put down our pen.

'You have 10 minutes for a question, there's plenty of time......hahaha...' said Dr Z. It is true for a specialist but not for a 4th year medical student. Actually, if you think deeper, SAQ means 'Speed, Agility, Quickness', don't you think so? I think this is the main purpose for this paper, just none of us realize :)

Final Count Down


Three more days and I will be sitting my 1st professional exam which will last for a week. Getting excited but worry at the same time too. Just hope that everything is fine. All the best to my batchmates. Just hope that all of us pass with no failure :)

Happy Chinese New Year


Do not hit rats if you see them,
smile and welcome them.

Why?
Because the year belongs to them.

Within few more hours,
we may eat pork until face 'pok pok' and body 'fat fat'.

Happy Chinese New Year !!!

小白兔的故事


从前我认识了一只非常有学问的小白兔,
它给我的影响是只既温驯又善良的小动物,
我对它又崇拜有佩服。

可是最近它既然作出一些让我意想不到的事情,
虽然这个事件总算到了一个段落,但我却对它彻底改观,
我不再像以前那样地尊重它,而且还对它的行为感到可耻。

至到现在我还搞不清楚它居心何在,
也许是我对它了解不够深,
它不再可爱了。

知人知面不知心,
我又上了一趟宝贵的课,
但我还是希望是我误解了它。

Missing Home


Already 6 weeks away from home. Kinda missing my comfortable bed and my house environment. With the exam just around the corner, wondering how many of you have the same feeling ---> MISSING HOME !!!

A lot of my colleagues were away from their hometown for a longer period, wondering how they cope with this feeling.

What I have done is calling back everyday, listening to the familiar voice from my handphone. Although my parents just visited me last weekend, still the feeling persists. I keep telling myself to hang on. Five or six more days to go, I will be going back to my hometown.

PS : To all my colleagues, study hard and take care of yourselves.

Funny Scenario


Today, CK and I were studying near the sofa in the library. We saw AP K*** came in and walked towards the newspapers corner, searching for something.

A pharmacy dude, sitting on the sofa, was reading THE STAR happily. Suddenly, his STAR was snatched by someone and followed by 'Oh, can I have it? (holding THE STAR in her hand)......Thanks.' After that, the lady just walked away.

The poor dude was stunned for 5 seconds before he knew what actually happened. He walked away in despair :(

Anonymous


Why do people like to use anonymous when starting a discussion or giving a comment?

Because they are afraid of revealing their real identity?

But again why?

Hope anyone who come across this post can contribute some idea. I will compile the idea :)

My Name

What Jen Ern Means

You are fair, honest, and logical. You are a natural leader, and people respect you.
You never give up, and you will succeed... even if it takes you a hundred tries.
You are rational enough to see every part of a problem. You are great at giving other people advice.

You are friendly, charming, and warm. You get along with almost everyone.
You work hard not to rock the boat. Your easy going attitude brings people together.
At times, you can be a little flaky and irresponsible. But for the important things, you pull it together.

You are very intuitive and wise. You understand the world better than most people.
You also have a very active imagination. You often get carried away with your thoughts.
You are prone to a little paranoia and jealousy. You sometimes go overboard in interpreting signals.



You are wild, crazy, and a huge rebel. You're always up to something.
You have a ton of energy, and most people can't handle you. You're very intense.
You definitely are a handful, and you're likely to get in trouble. But your kind of trouble is a lot of fun.

Downgraded?


After 5 years of hardwork, a medical student finally becomes a doctor.

However, he will start as a house-officer (HO) in a government hospital.

After 2 years (previously 1 year) of service, he is promoted to medical officer (MO).

He decided to further his study. After another 3-5 years, he is now a specialist.

He is not satisfied. He studies deeper. Eventually, he ends up as a sub-specialist.

What does sub-specialist mean?
Does it really mean more seniority than specialist?
Think about it :)

The End of a "Rising Star"


This is what had happened to a "Rising Star".

Flying too fast and attracting too much attention.

Because of Power and Jealousy, it reach its end sooner than others.

Nothing left. Not even a little bit of concern about it.

No more memory about its contribution. Very soon, it will be totally forgotten.

LEARN FROM MISTAKE
DON'T EVER DIG YOUR OWN GRAVEYARD

How Happy Are U?

You Are 92% Happy
It's unlikely that you know anyone happier than you.You know how to be happy, no matter what life throws at you.

WoW, 92%, am I always so happy?

No really sure about it that but at least I know that I seldom be sad :)

Btw, the percentage is very subjective.

Journey & Destination


"What is more important is the journey, not the destination. Everyone will end up in the same destination, don't you think so? As a doctor, the journey is how you come out with the differential diagnosis and order the management plan. Final diagnosis is not important."


How many of you actually agree with this statement? I disagree with it because if the destination is not important, then why do we start the journey? What is going to inspire us to continue or complete the journey when we fall?


To me, both are equally important. Only with an aim in our live, we will continue to work on to archieve the best outcome.


What do you think?
