Merry Christmas!

Image
This Christmas, 2012, i have two weeks of holidays, yet, i chose not to go home. ok, actually i wanted to go home but daddy and mommy and me, of course, reasoned out that the flight tickets just doesn't worth it. Daddy came up with better idea, instead of buying me the tickets, why not get me a new ipad or any tablets i want? Since i lost my samsung tablet. hmmph... Hence, i spend my Christmas here and i really enjoyed it as well.   I want to write this down so that when i'm old and look back at all this, i will really appreciate everything and everyone around me.  On Christmas eve, i went to kak Cory's house with kak Endah to help out (hahaha! so called help out with cooking), but ended up playing with baby Ray (Raymond) all the time. Food, of course. I ate a lotttt!  At night, Pak Jimmy invited few of us over to his house for dinner, and there i went. =)  Spending time with family is the most precious thing one can do. Thanks for the warmth of Chri...

我怎么了?

我怎么了? 陈丽甄啊,陈丽甄,你怎么了? 听得见里面你的声音吗? 是累了?还是过于紧张呢? 有时候对某一些事情别太执着,哭痛的只是自己。 专心吧!考试来了哟。。。

Interest vs Work

Image
Work. Sounds a bit too formal. Maybe studies cum clinical rotation would explain better. Interest. Things that I find pleasure in doing. Looking at myself right now, have i lost certain interest in doing something constructive in my free time? Or am i spending it too much on all the dramas i watched? Hahahaha! Work. Studies. Exams requirements. + Interest. Fun. Relaxing. Hobby. ---> can they happen together? my answer: Yes! They do! Hence, i found a new interest and i promise to cut my dramas. Deng deng deng deng! My new challenge: PHONATIONS! Maybe some (or perhaps all) would wonder why i choose this. Simple reason: i wanna be able to learn new words and language and be able to pronounce them clearly! =) Now, I've found a new, constructive & meaningful (according to me) challenge to go with my 'work'. How about you? phonations ;) ps: Everyone is different, so, judge not and talk no nonsense about others. Place your attention on you, ...

音乐。MUSIC。

Image
音乐在很多时刻是我最好的伴。 不管在什么时候、什么地方、什么状况,只要插上耳机, 按播放,一切都平静了下来。 虽然我没,也不懂如何追求最新的,而且还是经常过时outdated, 但只要是好音乐,新的旧的,一切都是我的伴。。。 =) 一起加油吧! ~啦啦啦啦啦啦~

Test in life...

Image
There's always ups and downs in life, no matter which part of life we're in now, be it young or old. I'm angry because I did not express myself nicely and had been quite rough in my talking. I'm sad because I really do not want myself to be associated with people who talk nonsense all the time. I'm avoiding because I think that's the best way out. Just as I decided to say sorry, I lost my temper... My anger, sadness, avoidance all mixed up! Obviously, my anger surpassed any of them. Sigh... LOSER. The word I chose. Forgiveness is not easy. It's really hard. Easier said that done. But, one example has been shown to us: Jesus. I truly believe that God will not let His children be tested beyond their ability, because the Bible says so. "So, if you think you are standing firm, be careful that you don't fall! No temptation has overtaken you except what is common to us all. And God is faithful; He will not let you be tempted beyond wha...

Me. Medicine.

I was having conversation with my dear friend and this came up. "Everyone I met surely post this question to me, just because I'm a medical student and doctor-to-be. 'How's your study? When are you going to be a doctor?' Oh my gosh! How many times do I have to answer this question over and over again with a consistent yet satisfying one?" Out of a sudden I have this superb idea in my mind! This is how I see my Medical life... When I was a medical student, I'm a pure, white, blank paper (surely have to be SIRIM (quality-control) approved ones...), waiting to be painted and written on.  And now, a co-as (co-assistant) in clinical rotation, I'm a paper scribbled with loads of information, but there're lots of fill-in-the-blank to do.  In the future, as a houseman, I'll be a passage filled waiting to be corrected.  Move on, as a medical doctor, I'll be a re-written passage waiting to be tested.  Just as life moves on, I'll b...

This is not how it should be...

Just a quick review from my experience in Interna in July... While i was on duty in the ICCU ward during interna, there was this patient with tubes all over him and needed CPR twice in the afternoon to keep him alive till night, when he passed away around 11pm. When i saw the patient, he kept going into cardiac arrhythmia, since he got cardiac arrest hours before, and ECG showed posterior-inferior infect, it would mean that he needs a PCT immediately. Hence, i asked the doctor why the patient was still here in the ICCU ward but not in the Cath Lab for the operation. The answer was a bit distressing: he has no money. The doctor explained that the procedure would cost a lot, and it is covered by the certain insurance for the poor, but not by some other insurance. If he is rich, then carrying the procedure will have no problem.If he is very poor or near poor, and have that certain insurance, there will not be a problem as well. The problem here is that neither him nor his f...
