2day's the first time i didnt realli haf any lessons at all ever since sch started. onli had a 40 min prac session at nuh with this 250K mannequin again. hahz. but once again i'm super amazed at the mannequin, not only does it respond to your auditory commands (eg. asking it to open its eyes), it acty breathes out carbon dioxide and takes in oxygen in the same percentages as eachof us does. n, 2dae we were doing on pnuemothorax with is lung collapse caused by air in the lung cavity, the doctor acty stuck a needle into the mannequin's chest wall 2 let out the air n all the values on the ECG machine went back to normal!!! it's bloody hell like a real human responding to therapy sia. no wonder it costs as much as a hdb flat in singapore.
oh, n one funny thing, we learnt abt this genetic connective tissue disorder called the Marfan Syndrome. hahaz, so funny lah, when the doctor mentioned it, everyone thot he was trying 2 b funny since the illness really leads to alot of complications. turns out it's the real name of the illness!! in case anione doesnt get the joke/ pun, read the name of the syndrome in hanyu pinyin way. =p
was out studying with jen, mok n yy the whole afternoon after tad. i miss studying with them. mebbe im too used to it since both the last 2 major exams i went thru, i studied with them. it's juz a feelin of comfort n familiarity i guess. think im realli becoming antisocial. hahz, i enjoy eating dinner in my rm, watchin tv n tokkin 2 shahri on the fone at the same time. den after sch, i can come back 2 rm n study myself, stimes i dunt even mind packing lunch back 2 eat. hahz. but i enjoy it. not 2 say i dunt enjoy the company of some of my frens lah. esp the pple frm my og. but other den tad, i find it too much of a chore. mebbe coz my og pple more or less noe me already. hee! mebbe i dowan 2 b in the medical lib, arnd sch, seeing these pple all the time cause subconsciously i noe tad i'll b wrkin arnd them 4 the rest of my life. quite scary rite, seeing the same pple 4 the rest of ur life. even those tad u noe u cant wrk with. but tads a fact of life.
