Confident...Case Presentation

"Don't be over confident," Prof Zaleha said to me."It's good to be confident, but when you are too sure about yourself, than, it is a bad sign." Yupp, a very good advice, Funnily, i didn't realise that i was over confident, am I?

That was my first obstretric presentation and i guess the last for my group for the 4th year. Placenta Praevia Type 2 with concurrent premature contractions and anemia, that was the case. Unfortunately, and interestingly, the case was so interesting yet so complex, i know i will be half dead after the session is over.

That's not what really matter, because the most disturbing thing is that it is about my personality of presenting a case. Confidence level, a lot of information, marvellous facial expression, and a flowery words of describing symptoms, which is good, yet in moderation. Hmm, i was so eager not to be less in it, nevertheless, stumbled to be a bit on the "over" side, and to add to the misery, i did not realise that i was over the edge. The good thing is someone actually wake me up from my undiagnosed syndrome of presentation.

I guess, now i need to brush up to be a little bit under, in order to be near to perfect. Help me ALLAH.

Rooster, the year of cock!!

Tomorrow, will be the beginning of year full of chic and cock, haha, the year of rooster is here. Hmm, that mean this year, Anis, Ai Peng and others seniors will be turning 24, completing 2 cycles of chinese lunar calendar.

Now it is 12.36pm, at the cc kat hospital. Pukul 2.30 and 3.30 nanti got 2 classes regarding o&g. Hmm, why we got to have class at this period of time, when i am in my festive holiday mood? Too bad....but i guess, the situation for Ai Peng and other chinese is worst..."Can u imagine Adli, that they don't want to reschedule the class. It is impossible for me to get back here at 2.30!! And i'm not sure when that 3.30 class will finish. Tomorrow evening, i have to travel back to my grandma house in Kula Selangor!! They are not considerate at all!!", Ai Peng sadly complained to me, yesterday.

Yeah, kind of true. If i'm in the same situation, i will feel sad too. But saying that, i had been in that situation several times. Hmm....yupp, some people just to selfish for their own sake and good. Yet, that's world, and we need to familiarize with it, to excel in life.

The year of Rooster supposedly to be better than the past year of monkey. I hope it will bring the same reflection of my life. Come on, chic and cock, follow ur master!!

p/s; haha...chic and cock...don't misinterpret it!!

volunteering....to be or not to be ...

It just happened that suddenly i felt the urge to BE.....

"Basically, i'm a medical student. So volunteering is part of my everyday job. Yet the field is usually limited to health and community who need it. Being a youth and have a lot of interest in development of youth, i'm attracted to share my experience and knowledge with others especially my juniors to guide them into their future.
In addition to that, currently, a student advisor for Asia Medical Students' Association (AMSA) Malaysia, and a Liason Officer to Europe for AMSA International, i involved in lot of youth related programs nationwide and in asia level. Experience attending conferences and meeting locally and abroad, expose me to different cultures and lifestyle that will help me to be part of your volunteering team. I never involve in any of ABM programs before, and it is pity, when i was in my teens, i never heard about it. Nevertheless, i guess, i'm not too late to be part of the ABM family. It is my pleasure to volunteer!!"

hmm...yeah it is deep from my sincere heart ....

Collection of Friendship

It was last wednesday evening, when suddenly, it strucked my mind, what is friend? Are you and I, is consider as friend? Is that, by i know you, we chat, we do things together and we meet several times, we hang out, we are consider as friend? Is it...or ....it is more than it..or is it less than that?

I can never answer that for sure, but instinct play a big role in it. So, i finally sat down on my chair after that laps of swimming and magrib prayer, scrutinizing all my "friends" and "peoples" that i met thro out my life, evaluating their importance to my life, but i guess the most important factor that influence my instinct was....am i important to them. And yeah, by the end of the night, the list revealed a reality of "friendship"...it was sad to see the reality, yet i feel relieve that i had the strengh to dive deep and see the truth of my life.

Hmm, funny to see that out of thousands u collected along the way and u hope to establish a bond between them, only a few are willing to be collected and care about who you are.......i don't want to be a mere collector.......


Goodbye schizo...welcome lovely baby (-_-)

So it was over, the psy syndrome is finally over...for at least until i start my final year. Can't say much, yupp i was nervous, as usual, started to prepare for the exam (finally) on monday two days before the clinical and 3 days before the MCQ, essays and case solving...and thanks to allah...the exam went smoothly and it was a good feeling !! Mr S, my clinical exam patient, even though was really manic with his "delusions" about Shania Twain, his company and the club he want to buy....i managed to crack the code and revealed the mistery...Relapse of Bipolar Mood Disorder Type 1 with psychotic features, without interepisode residual symptoms. Hmm, and i like the problem solving question, Post Traumatic Stress Disorder as result of the tsunami devastation.

O & G, my last posting for my fourth year...huhh....yuppp a year nearly over..and it just feel like yesterday i started my JKM. So, i am 5 days old of O&G, and it feel marvelous. I entered it with empty mind, but yupp, with lot of energy inside. It is like i was reborn, energetic as ever and eager to explore the most feminine posting ever...hahaha...

Yesterday was my first official night oncall, and alhamdulillah, i managed to conduct 5 deliveries which is the requirement for us for the next 8 weeks. And welcoming a new life into this word is a gorgeous feeling......and i like this feeling...(-_-)
