First week of work attachment

I have to say, this work attachment really gives a good experience, I'm glad I'm in it. To sum up what I did over the past few days, it was basically following patients in the Falls clinic to observe their interviews and consultations, running the clinic in the Geri department, got to see a lot of people with dementia as well. Sat through a session where the doctors and physiotherapists discussed the individual dementia cases too. Went for surgeries in General Surgery for the past two days, mainly saw hernia and gallstone cases, though there was one with a pancreatic cyst too. Don't think I want to become a surgeon though, this isn't the kind of thing I wanna do. Chanced upon an emergency case in the OT next to us too, it was a boy involved in a motorbike accident, had injuries on his head, face, and torso. Was a new experience seeing the seriousness of an emergency surgery. Well at least the boy survived, though he's in really bad shape now.

I've been so busy the past week that I haven't been able to blog much. I think this year I may really have to cut down on my weekly anime and manga, I already can't catch up as it is, not to mention tumblr. Sigh, it's about time I started sacrificing these I guess, it's a wonder how I did so well last year with all these distractions. Once lessons start, I'm gonna go all the way, these two years are really important.

Looks like Sunda's the only one I know coming to VJ. Rest of them didn't do so well. Sigh, guess we'll have to catch up at Keith's house every holiday just like we used to, just that it'll be harder this time.

I finally got volume 58 of OP, thanks Farhana for the really late present :D I've really got to set aside time for reading my remaining OP volumes, and some books I bought with my MPH voucher, pretty interesting ones. Probably over the CNY holiday I guess. Free time is running out, really gotta make the most of what I have left. Oh here's what I drew the other day, I really wanna add in the background and colour it soon.



Yup, gonna settle most of the small remaining details for the Pulse newsletter tomorrow, and hopefully start colouring that.

Sigh, life is just a sequence of repeating cycles it seems.
