Time freakin’ flies. 2012 swooshed past so quickly I didn’t even realize it’s the beginning of my favorite month tomorrow. How many new year resolutions have you accomplished as of now?How many times have you told yourself you’re going to do certain things but never got to it until you eventually forgot about it?How many times have you been touched by other people’s kindness?How many times have you touched others by a small act of kindness?How have you lived your year (life) so far? A little too early for year-end reflection, but November is a good time to think about…

Third week into neurology block and we’re beginning to worry about the exam that we all have to take in June next year. Seems like a long time from now, but in truth it’s everything but. Pretty soon we’ll all be panicking about it… if we don’t start preparing right now. I don’t know about the others, but I sure feel that sense of urgency, and I really have to start working on it. No more excuses and no more blog posts about doing everything but the thing that I should be doing i.e. studying. The general feeling towards the…

Problem = (what the situation should be – what the situation is) x concern Therefore, if concern = 0, there is no problem! 😀 Having a ball of a time during occupational and environmental medicine intersession, especially when Prof R is talking. Personally I think public health / occupational medicine might be a very interesting area to go into in the future.

It’s been quite a while since I last blogged, I don’t know what or how to blog anymore. And now I’m sitting here thinking why I’m even writing this. The thing is, I can’t remember why I keep a blog anymore. Maybe I should delete this whole blog, or remove it from public’s view. Maybe I should just stop blogging altogether. Leaving for KK in a few hours. Am excited, and nervous at the same time- nervous about the climb, that is. This is the one highlight of my summer, I hope it doesn’t disappoint. Signing off! Will write more…

It’s always just someone else’s story, stories you only read on the news- until one day it happens to you. Got to come to one’s senses and realize that things like kidnapping, rape, or robbery, are real; and it happens around us all the time. Every day. Heck, it could very well be you or me, if we’re unlucky enough. Be careful when you go out, friends! Here’s the story about the girl who had a close encounter the other day at The Curve: https://www.facebook.com/notes/chin-xin-ci/30-hours-ago-i-escaped-from-being-kidnapped/10150980821959859

I take no credit in any part of this, just wanted to share it because it cracks me up. If you’re my friend and you have the same kind of humor as I do, you’ll like it for sure. If you’re not, well, I’m 88% sure you’ll like it too. Enjoy! (Click on the picture below.)

10 years ago I went to Russia with these friends. Left the place 8 years ago, and I haven’t seen some of them for that long. Now they’re all doctors (except one, who came back like I did), and I’m still back where I first started with them a decade ago. Hard as I try to not think about it, sometimes thoughts invade my stream of consciousness without my consent, and I wonder how I’d turn out if I had just stuck on. I suspect I would’ve turned out just fine, but that’s me speaking in present time, and I…

… I thought this is cute. At least for nerds like me. 🙂

Thought my friends would find these links interesting: What’s the trouble? by Jerome Groopman – As we go for our longitudinal clerkship every week, witnessing our preceptors diagnose their patients accurately and quickly (most of the time), I wonder how they do it, and if they ever got it wrong sometimes, or missed something. This article talked about how doctors think, how sometimes they, too, can make errors even when they have the best of intentions. Heuristic errors. This article made me want to read his book, titled ‘How Doctors Think’. Adding that to my to-read list. The Paradox of Altruism, by…

the world does not stop spinning it doesn’t care if you have exams tomorrow or the day after or whenever, it doesn’t care if you can’t finish studying or if you need more time to study because you waste too much time lingering on social media/news sites or because you are ill. it doesn’t care if you’re bleeding to death and you need more blood for transfusion- blood that better match your ABO blood group and best be HLA-matched as well. it doesn’t care if you’re a genius or a janitor when it comes to accidents, diseases, or cancers. it…
