一个人,一个人,一个人。。。

我似乎已忘了。。。
从何开始我习惯了一个人生活
不再依赖朋友
一个人步行去上课
一个人去骑车,跑步
甚至一个人用餐

我喜欢一个人的宁静

最近开始爱上我大学的图书馆
喜欢一个人霸占着一大张桌子
把书本,笔记,文件夹和我那巨大的笔盒撒在桌子上
戴上耳机
自在地企图把一切东东塞进脑袋里
吹着刺骨的冷气
直到我冰冻得手脚发麻无法握笔
才去学生餐厅吃午餐
一起约好用餐的朋友?
可有可无

我喜欢一个人的潇洒

大学,是一个教你如何一个人生存的地方
没有家人在你身旁
朋友到处可见
知己却屈指可数
如此冷酷无情的生活
你又能耐多久?

想家了吗?
我想了。。。

我自认忍耐性指数不错
我并非特别喜欢独来独往
只不过是习惯了
我并非刻意避开人群
只不过我喜欢一个人的自由

还有。。。
以我的观察
似乎只有那些大学情侣才可摆脱掉一个人生活的命运
现实
你现在才懂吗?

我天生就是一幅充满快乐的脸蛋
可我并没有你想象的坚强,勇敢
我也有觉得孤单,寂寞的时候
当时只好与家人通话聊天
爸爸说,就算没什么东西好聊,听听对方的声音也好
哈哈!爸爸即使开始变得如此浪漫?
又或者是。。。
在网上与我中学死党们聊天
因为就算天塌下来,他们还是我最可靠的^^
再来。。。
就是戴着耳机出去跑步散心
要不然。。。
就是找一部超无厘头的喜剧来看
然后哈哈大笑一场
那不就没事了吗

所以目前只有一件事是我克服不了的
那就是独自去对面的广场买东西
因为。。。
我害怕一个人过马路!!!>.<

嘻嘻
又是一段烂文字
作者是我,一个华文超烂的华人
请大家别见怪
因为爸爸说
无论做什么事情都好
都不许理会别人怎么说怎么想
自己开心就好!!!

欣茹,
再坚强,独立点儿吧!
=)

what will happen in 3 1/2 years time???

Too many new doctors and too few hospitals to train them

By LOH FOON FONG
foonfong@thestar.com.my


PETALING JAYA: The number of medical housemen undergoing clinical training in most government hospitals has increased and this has given rise to concern that they may not get sufficient experience.
With new medical schools opening up locally and lower fees being offered at new institutions abroad, around 4,000 Malaysian medical students are expected to graduate annually from 350 universities all over the world in the coming years.
Senior Hospital Kuala Lumpur (HKL) consultant physician Datuk Dr S. Jeyaindran said each specialist was supervising four times as many housemen compared to a decade ago.
“Five years ago, one houseman looked after 10 patients in hospital wards at any one time but now it is one to four patients,” said Dr Jeyaindran, who is HKL department of medicine head and national head for medicine at the Health Ministry.
“The concern is that these interns are seeing fewer patients and hence, have fewer opportunities to carry out adequate procedures. In some hospitals, there are more housemen than patients.”
Dr Jeyaindran said they were not only concerned about the increase in numbers but also their attitude.
“Some lack responsibility towards their patients,” he said, adding that there were also those who did not know how to give an accurate diagnosis and relied too much on investigative tools instead of clinical skills and getting the proper patient history.
Malaysian Medical Council ethics committee chairman Datuk Dr Abdul Hamid Abdul Kadir said several specialists had expressed concern about the large numbers and training hospitals were finding it difficult to cope.
“In the past, it was five housemen in each department but now it could be 20 to 30 for each department,” he said, adding that some specialists were overburdened by the workload.
Health Minister Datuk Seri Liow Tiong Lai said the ministry was aware of the issue and would be increasing the number of training hospitals.
He said the ideal ratio should be one specialist supervising five housemen with one houseman taking care of 14 hospital beds depending on discipline.
There were 38 hospitals providing training to more than 3,058 housemen last year.
However, the number increased to the current 6,253 housemen since the ministry increased the duration of housemanship from one year to two.
“This led to most hospitals, including those in Sabah and Sarawak, having an excess of housemen,” he said.
Hospitals that were chosen must be able to cater to six areas in which housemen need training – medical, surgical, paediatrics, obstetrics and gynaecology, orthopaedic and accident, and emergency, he said.
Liow also said that they would be getting 58 contract specialists from Egypt, India and Pakistan next month to help supervise housemen and reduce the burden of the specialists now.
He also said that the ministry had taken steps to overcome the lack of experience among housemen by making training compulsory for two years instead of one.

post-conference experience

well,it has been quite few busy days since i came back from the AMSA National Geriatric Conference in IMU...
i gotta rush back my lecture notes...
follow up with my wushu training...
go for the usual lectures,PBL,clinical teachings...
blah blah blah~
only God knows when i can finally be free 
haha

anyway...
i'll just create a short and precise post here about my conference experience kay=)
cz i'll have briefing by senior right after this...


IMU's learning resources centre(i guess this is what they called^^)...well,their models looked brand new,intact,and displayed nicely through crystal clear glass windows,and yea,they have elevators,not staircases=.=



new friends made from IMU!!!^^



this is how the conference been carried out,exactly like a lecture!!!not as i've expected though...



well,not to forget to have some fun since we were in KL!!!taken at Mid Valley~



erm,most importantly,highlight of the trip...
HARRY POTTER 7!!!:)



err...
Mama was right though...
this trip is more like a vacation than a so-called medical conferenceXP

the conference was a 2 days event...the 1st day was the outreach event where we went to old folks nursing care home to interact with patients staying there,talk to them,take their history,measure their blood pressure and take their random blood glucose level...whilst the 2nd day consisted of lectures and PBLs which required us to create a sketch within half an hour according to the trigger given...


frankly speaking,i think the conference was poorly-organised,well,maybe the organisers were mostly freshies 1st years...and the number of participants was disappointing as well...there are still a great room for improvement!!!


as i've mentioned,the highlight of the trip was eat,shop,and watch HP7 at mid-valley!!!hahaha^^
i was soooo delighted cz i thought i'll be missing this episode!!!wow,the movie was simply awesome!!!
and we had lots of good food like the famous "muah-chi" at petaling street,"hokkien mee",ZanMai sushi,and also TGI Friday!!!



ps...that's all for this time,see ya guys later cz i really needa study!!!exam's getting nearer...X[

HomeyHomeyHomey♡

whenever people get to know that my 2 centre digits of my IC aren't the ordinary ones...
they used to ask "WHY???"
and sometimes there are too many different people asking me the same question
eventually i get tired of answering...
and sometimes,even if i have answered,they may get confused...

well,the truth is:
i was born in Austria
yes,it's A.U.S.T.R.I.A,not AUSTRALIA


its a tiny European country,surrounded by GIANTs like Germany,Switzerland,Hungary and Czech...
and i was born in a town called Salzburg...



the austrian flag...im not sure what does it mean though...but i think it looked a lil bit like Ravenclaw's symbol in Harry Potter hehe^^


its indeed a lovely country with nice sceneries of mountains and fresh air...





breath-taking winter scenery


have you ever watched the famous movie "The Sound of Music"???
almost the entire film is taken at my birthplace:austria


austria is the city of music,the place where the famous musician Mozart was born


that's about the intro to my birth place:Austria...
but i'd just love to emphasize that...
im a PURE Malaysian!!!
im a citizen of Malaysia
holding the birth certs and also IC of Malaysia!!!
ps,my family migrated back to Malaysia when i was 6 years old...

i love Malaysia...
i love the culture,food,weather and most importantly,all the people that i know in Malaysia...
nevertheless,im missing Austria too...
although i was too small to have a vivid memory of my 6 years of life living there...

so...
one of my greatest wish is that...
i wish to go back to Austria someday
when i have a stable income
when i officially become a doctor
bringing my family along...
we'll be reliving the past memories back at that time=)

another huge project

ALOHA readers^^
i was reading my CFCS notes
and blog-surfing at the same time

i enjoy blog-surfing nowadays...
just click on the "next blog" icon above then you'll be randomly linked to a blog written by people living different corners of the world...
and it will always give me endless surprises...

and today...
i came across this blog of a cancer survivor's blog:



"I am tired of waiting, of being stuck. I need this to be over. Cancer patients and survivors do not have the liberty to waste time. Every second of every day is precious to us. We never know if tomorrow will be our last." These were the very words I said to my surgeon the week of my last surgery. I was desperate to start living my life with nothing holding me back...surgeries, hyperbaric treatments and doctor appointments. Monday was the first day...in over a year and a half, that I was finally able to start living my life again, savoring every moment without treatments or doctor obligations and to start looking forward and not back. It was a GREAT feeling.

Since then, I have been been waking up every morning with excitement wondering how I am going to live out my day. What am I going to accomplish? It is all up to me and nobody else to decide what I am going to do. I am able to start saying "yes" to opportunities that I have said "no" to for many months. I am gratefully reassuming my role as mom, wife and friend and no longer being defined as a cancer patient. I cherish small moments like having a cup of coffee in the morning, taking in the beauty of Fall, listening to my kids laugh and play and holding hands with Jason....no longer will I take these moments for granted like I did in the past. 

This is what life is all about. Appreciating every moment and every experience given to you. Understanding that life's ups and downs define who you are and make you glad to be alive. It is about loving others and being loved back. And most important, it is knowing that God is in control and to trust him wholeheartedly with your life.

im sooo touched by her writings...
and she reminded me of how fortunate i am...
to be free of any severe disease and illness...
and to have a normal facial appearance without any deformities(though mine didn't look attractive)...

i will cherish every tiny moments,especially those that i'll be spending with my family this weekend...
like she did=)

woohoo!!!
im excited about my new job^^

last night we had a Wushu Club meeting and we decided to organise the 2nd Intervarsity Wushu Championship in next year 2011...those HICOM were already chosen,i was being asked to become the project coordinator at first,but i rejected...there's NO WAY that i could carry this HUGE responsibility...simply because,i know myself too well,for sure i'll collapse from hypertension if i'd take the job,and poor mummy and daddy,they'll become my problem listeners...so,i hereby apologise to those who think that i can handle the job,sorry to let you all down...and so in the end,i became the vice-coordinator,i will fully assist CheeKeong(project coordinator) in the project on-going...thank God we are like old friends,old partners,so everything will be just fine=)...really,the HUGE responsibility of a project coordinator is not meant for girls like me,we have too much hormonesXP

that's what i hate,and love the most about life in university
when one project finishes...
another one will soon be knocking on your door...
in fact,our HUGE CNY night 2011 not even finished yet!!!
but THIS seems fun
so im quite looking forward to it^^

ooyea,time is running out...
gotta get back to my dry CFCS notes...
