Me and paeds posting..

The last patient I clerked in paeds...admitted @ 11 30 pm on 13/2/11

It will be the one that I would wanna remember for my life because it was my first posting, my mind was totally blank and I still remember the first day I step in ward 3c ( paeds ward) I was like what is going on here? everyone is running in and out, child crying etc etc..

Luckily I had a bunch a super nice colleague which I learned most from them, not to forgot super patience and nice MO's who guided and taught me throughout my posting. Sorry for my stupidity at times and truly appreciate your teachings.

There are lot's of ups and downs, still remember my tagging period I go back home almost 12 am everyday, trying to absorb as much as possible, stress out because of the 6 CBDs and 2 mini cex. Cried so much but have to wipe my tears, stand up and be strong the next day and go to work.I had super duper bad calls most of the times but I am grateful for all this, as this all had trained me to be a stronger and thougher person.

Too cute for only one pictutre, so here's another one..

Thanks to all the nurses esp Kak Rohani and Kak Lily in 3c who helped me so so so much during my call, your blood taking skills are superb. Will miss you very much and finally...

Thanks to my dear dear who supported me all the way,always there for me when I miss home, when I am sad and stress out...bring me to Teluk Intan one and only one Mc'D for choc top everyday after work.

NICU setting, where I had my best call..

Final paeds call, had the record of 26 TSBs...13 admissions + 1 NICU transfer in which sum up to 28 patients that night.

Up next is O&G , heard it is thougher....will try to cope with it.. wish me luck..



and finally... a picture to frighten you  : On call sleep deprived look. Hope I did not frighten you guys.

My Graduation in photos..

Oh well, obviously it's for lazy people and yes, I admit I am lazy. Super duper lazy...

And finally, my graduation ended. We have two graduations one which is the actual one in Ukraine, and another one in Putrajaya, PICC. As usual, the lazy me will let the pictures do the talking..

Before we start.. **emo mood kicks in** Thats it.. the end of the whole 14 years of going to school or to be exact 16 years including kindergarden?? how fast time flies, now I have to go out there to contribute to the society, to help mankind, and to be responsible for whatever decision I made. **hyperventilates and running around like a mad woman** Lives are within my hands and every decision I made would not only influence my patient's life and death issue but also will change the lives of those around them. I am scared.. but I think I have to learn to cope with it, to deal with times that I have to say "I am sorry, we did our best!" to deal with life and death and to withstand long sleepless hours. ** emo mood ends**

The happy part.. Pictures.. Weeeeee....
 It's the Class of 2010

A shoe shopping experience..

After exams days are ahhhh.... so relaxing . We were free to do whatever we want at anytime at anywhere.. but most of the time I was busy selling stuff.. oh $$ $$ come to me... just joking lahz.

Today we went shoe shopping,searching for Jenq Uei shoes, so we went into several shops in the City Center, Adidas, Mega Sports and Reebok.. So finally in Reebok, we found  super nice pair of shoes with some high tech technologies ( the air will circulate inside the shoes or something), with super nice price.

Out of a sudden I saw one pair of shoes.. woman, purple, high tech, edgy.. viola... suited all of my preference but I didn't buy...Out of joyous I think the shoes has blinded me and make me go insane I saw a bag abandoned on the chair and I thought it was Jenq Uei's Deuter bag that he simply throw on the chair.. so without thinking twice I pick up the bag and carried it..then suddenly some guy came up to me and said ...hmm..I think this is my bag and why u stole my bag...

I went ??!!??!!..then Jenq Uei turned to me and I saw he is carrying his own bag..omigod, my face turned red as a tomato and the two girls (shopkeeper) is laughing so loud there..holy moly ...so embarrassing.

Today is Father's day and I am here writing this post to wish every Dad in the world a very Happy Happy Father's day... and especially to my dad ..the world best dad..

Tomorrow heading to the beach.. Gonna be a red crab instead..

Finally to an end..

... of 6 years med school.

17/6/2010, was the last day of my student life. Didn't realize that TIME DO FLIES. Started to miss student life,the books, the nerve-breaking exams, the endless sleepless night (ok maybe not for the endless sleepless night as more are coming) and I guess I will still miss this place although it is crappy at times but the experience and memories that were accumulated here together with my friends were priceless.

Oh well, back to the exam. Our group 630-633 were the first batch to have exams in Lugovoe hospital. My last paper consist of Obs& Gyn, Surgery and Therapy @ Medicine. The exams of course went through smoothly although there were lots of running through and fro, up and down between buildings to clerk and search for our patient. The practical part were adrenaline pumping and the theory part were all alright. Examiners are super nice and they will be one of those that I will miss in the future.

The exams ended as usual with the result announcing and speech from our dean . Sing Hoon's speech was good  and touching, the whole climax of the exam would be the 4 group of us sang the famous Barney song --- " I love you, You love me.. bla bla bla to the examiners". The examiners were surprised and happy and we ( both the teachers and us) have mixed feelings.

First day being called as Dr. Koh Wen Ming. It sounds so good.. from now onwards I will have to learn to be responsible for all my patients.

Exactly one month before I fly back to Malaysia for good, I week before my grad and less than one week before my parents come. There are so much things to do, more of the cleaning and sorting part, and there are so much of places I wish to visit. So much things to do, so little time..

at last... Congratulation Class of 2010.

I am done with one exam.

Oh yea. And it was two days ago. I am so tired after the exam and the feeling was just like after doing a strenuous set of gym or I have never been sleeping for the past 1 month or two or anything equivalent to it, but anyhow, I had passed it  and this is the happiest part. Now there is one more exam left, the one and only last exam left in my entire student years, despite the fact of it being the last exam, I am still going to hate and dislike it, sigh, never ever learn to like exams. Don't understand why there are some of my friend who love exams.. The adrenaline rush during the process and days before it... the feeling was just unpleasant.


Happier part.. Plans after the exams ( plural because it is a 3-in-one combo consisting of : Surgery, O&G and Therapy aka Internal Medicine) . First thing first. I am gonna sort my things out and clean the room. My fridge buyer is gonna come and collect my fridge on 19th of June ( Hope he abide our deal as I am having a real bad feelings on his honesty) so do the microwave and stuff. Besides that, I will need to do room cleaning for my parents room as they are arriving on the 23rd of June via Turkish airlines.. Excited can't wait to see them..

Can't believe that 6 years passed in a blink of eyes. Reminiscing times when I first step in Simferopol Ukraine on 10th of September 2004 , I was shocked with the condition of my room. It was just a light bulb and 3 beds. ( My gawd!!) but we were too tired so we just changed and sleep. ( There isn't hot water either by that time). The next morning, our first breakfast would be Simfi's one and only one Mc D, I still remember I was having Fillet -O -fish and was really sad. Homesick....

The first meal we cooked is Porridge and all of us never ever exposed to cooking back then poured 1 kg of rice to cooked porridge. Guess what... the porridge burst and overflow and almost flood the room.. ( exaggeration elements were added). Anyway.. this is how one grow with  experience and failure. The is how I survived my 6 years of study here..

Guess I will post a longer story on " My 6 years of life in Simferopol"...

Till then... see ya.
