Hi guys, how have you all been doing? Sorry to my Sitiawan friends whom I’ve lost contact with. Have been occupied with studies and other things I suppose.
It’s been a really long time since the last update. What can I say? The first year of medical school went by just too fast. TOO FAST. A cliche but, TIME FLIES and I am quite lost for words. But in short, I’ve gained knowledge, experience, insight, and finally friends whom will remain being friends long after graduation.
It feels so unreal that my first year is done, provided that I pass. A quick summary of what happened this year. I shall keep it as short and sweet as I can.. 
Well, my first step in med school begun with the letter H. My first PCL group. It really took me awhile to belong in the group. I was what you would say, a somewhat social outcast, anti-social, lone-wolf. But in the end, I loved this group. It made me realized that in life or in the medical school at least, going through this ‘journey’ in life alone is definitely not the solution. CONNECTEDNESS is key! It was sad that I was hiding in my shell for a long time.
GROUP H MED1011!
First row, from the left:
Syukriah, Yi Zhen, Gaya, Rebekah, Zhi Mei, Serene, Din, Jin Ern, Bertrand, AKMEZ, Shanaka, and me.
Good bunch of people. Each of them have special qualities and I admire them. Couldn’t have asked for a better bunch of people than this! Enjoyed your company Group H and Dr. S. lol
A special note of Jin Ern, the holy man of med school. He is as perfect as a human can be I believe. His unconditional kindness and patience, will make Glenn look like one of us, if you know what I meant. He does not use any profanity. His swear word is CRAP. He made me realized, ok, he told me, that life is about choices. Make the right ones and you’ll be happy. So Mr Tan, the whole med school is happy that you and you know who are together now, I think. *sneaky sneaky*
Picture time…..Highlights of Sem 1
The Year One’s on the last day of transition camp! Transition Camp in Port Dickson. Basically, I feel that the aim of the camp is just to make friends and to bond with your PCL group members. Hmmmm
Believe it or not, these are the faces of the future doctors in Malaysia!
Port Dickson beach.
Dr. Amudha aka Motherly Clinical Skills Tutor… Thanks Dr. Amudha for giving me support and encouragement. *Shucks*
“Shave me, Save me” event which aimed to raise funds for the children cancer association of Malaysia as well as awareness. It was for a good cause, so why not? Three or four girls volunteered to have their heads shaved. Come on guys, if girls can do it, why not guys? I really look up to the three girls who shaved their heads. Respect respect. Good job MuMeds for making the event a success.
Wah, good looking buggers
Paintball! You haven’t lived, if you haven’t played paintball. The dirt, the sweat, the blood and the CASH needed to pay for it! RAWR…My CS/COD fantasy came true.
Only two year one’s went for the match. Sad case.
Check me out in green! -.-
Yuki’s bday at Kim Gary.. sigh, Kim Gary =.=
LOL, not built for ultimate…. shin splints!
Learnt to play frisbee!!!!! Ultimate was fun… but me ain’t got no talents.
Final days as Group H….awwww….
Okay, okay… Time for sem 2.. this post is becoming boring… sorry!
My new group for sem 2… RAWR GROUP E- everlastingelephants.blogspot.com aka PARA PARA SAKURA!
Went to Segamat to learn more about the health care provided in a rural setting. Pretty good experience I would say.
For Sem 2, we were required to do somewhat like an extra co-curicular activity called as Selectives. Basically, do something that may or may not be related to medicine. This was to broaden our experience and knowledge and not too be too focused on BOOKS BOOKS BOOKS I believe.
To be continued… wordpress’s interface is really bad for photos….
Playing with their RC car….Ah… RC cars…brings back memories of me spoiling those cars…
View of Sunway Lagoon from balcony…
Pyramid and sunway lagoon……zzzzzz…. My N95 is not too bad eh? Pretty decent night photos i guess…
