Code name: disaster

Today, a very severe, grave situation happens in my little beautiful town, Klang. Most of its citizen, actually about 40 students aged 12 to 14, are under attack from a four winged arthropod with a sting at its end of abdomen. How it happened, no one really knows, but it was sure that 1 idiot decided to play macho by hitting the beehive. As a result, 40 schoolmates of his get sting, and 3 having allergic reaction. Lucky no mortality reported and all the children was discharge well.
The lesson, never be so idiot, when see a beehive run from it. Some people while trying to be macho end up making a fool of himself, worst hurting himself and the people around him, someone could get kill of his ill act. This reminded me much of someone I know who think highly of himself and my advice to him is think before acting.

A very different day

Can’t believe it with my own eyes, the patient load here really is scary. Now I will really need to reconsider working in Klang General Hospital, this concern a matter of live and death. Today is disastrous, its like I am in a refugee camp or something, every 5 minutes the bell will ring indicating new cases that needs urgent attention. U should look at the doctors’ face, I can tell they in the shock of their life. The patient load toady is overwhelming, imagine all the beds been used up till the wheelchair is needed as temporarily observation bed (this is a really good example of fully utilizing the wheel chair). Everyone is busy today, lucky I have the privilege of escaping to the canteen for a peace of mind (this is what medical student do if u are curious). By the way, I meet this interesting girl hoping to be a medical students, she is actually shock at the way I behave, she thinks as a medical students life should be difficult (she thinks I should go round seeing patient like a doctor, how naïve, lucky I did not discourage her to be a doctor, can’t wait to see her change of expression when she enter medical life, hahahahahaha).

-Some statistic, last month Klang A and E receive 500 patients, this beat every A and E in Malaysia, GH only have 400, Seremban sad to say only 200 patient.
Proud to be a Klang boy.

It’s a small world

Ever wonder who is the artist of the picture showing a naked women and an old man in the IMU corridor? A hint, he is now a doctor and he graduated from IMU (an idiot should notice these too). Interesting I meet him in Klang hospital working as a house officer in the A and E department, what a surprise. Looks like having elective in Klang hospital is the right choice least I don’t get bored been alone. Nevertheless, the rumors about Klang hospital are all true. Just imagine having at least 5 MI, 5 acute abdomens, 8 trauma related cases, 3 pediatric cases, 2 psychiatric cases, and 2 police related case all in the morning, and it repeats again the next day only with different individual.
Back to the main topic, now does this really make me a good talent scout?

A hidden jewel

Since my graduation from UEC, I had not talked to anyone about politic or more precise international politic (local Malaysian politic is a failure and really rule by greedy business man by the way). Living in IMU for 3 and a ½ year made me “depress” and all I do is making “lame” jokes. Till the 28th of December 2006, someone I know for some time for no reason start talking about some Malaysian politic to my friend. I listen and almost doze off, boring.
Then he start talking about China, wait China, this is the first time in IMU history someone not UEC care about our root. My blood boils with excitement and we start talking, like the good old days only this time he praise Chairman Mao which turn me down (Chairman Mao is a savior to some but to me he had made important mistake which causes Chinese to suffer extra few years). More amaze he know china to quite a extend for someone who don’t study china history in their secondary school. I know this guy; he keeps beard and look Malay.
He is somehow to some extend extreme, maybe is his passion for communist which made him so. By the way I feel glad knowing someone is not “brain wash” by local education. Let me tell all Malaysian out there, the overseas view we local Chinese as idiot a true idiot, first for letting local education poison our mind, second not knowing politic at all and made a mess out of it.
What made me sad is that 2 of my housemate after listening to his “lecture” find it a joke, which in fact is not. Hopefully they read this blog because their mind is naïve; they are the manifestation of local education.
For u others, please know I am not promoting racism here, all I am asking is to know who and where u are from. As we Chinese say foresee the danger even at peace, u will never know what might happen next. If u finds this a joke let it be so, remember we are still idiots from their point of view.

New Year to everyone

2006 is over at last, what a relieve, according to some stupid year forecast, it forecasted that I have to struggle hard in that year 2006, and truly enough I did bump into some obstacles and it was tough solving it (maybe the idiot hate all wooden rat and curse their year, ops tongue slipped again). However I did learn some important lessons especially near the end of the year. Sorry no sharing this time, everyone needed some private space of their own, u know what I mean.
Anyway this New Year is really quite especially in my neighborhood where many pension teacher lives. So feeling empty and boring I look at the forecast again and it says its time to prosper, hopefully it is correct, I really needed some blessings and resting.
The main thing is I have some feeling of insecurity, recently I started to change and the change is dramatic. I begin to read books which I hate (I was referring to medical books) and stop playing Dota and more friendly (if u know I am the president of ASS) and many more others changes.
Reasons? Well I got some really inspiring word from a Doctor lately and feel guilty of my past action. I seek pleasure and enjoyment for a long time, avoiding the fact I am a medical student, now I realize I am actually disappointing many people, the worst is my parents, who love me so much. Taking up responsibility is what I am doing now; my parents are old now, as a son it’s my duty to take care of them. Besides I am year 4 medical students and still lack a great amount of knowledge, in future I am holding responsibility of human life, and if anyone die for my mismanagement I will not forgive myself. That is why this year I am struggling because I am changing and some part of me still cling to something past resisting change.
2006 is a great year, I have many sweet and painful memories, lets hope 2007 will be a better year, happy New Year everyone.
