this is what happens when a med student faces an upcoming exam (and an even a closer Mock OSCE.... now known as the MOSCE... pronouced Oh-S-Key.. or MOS (as in Mos Burger)-Key
1. We eat, sleep, breathe medicine...
Case in point 1:
when i'm cooking i think about digestive processes...
alas... i've lately taken to just throwing kievs and potato croquettes into the oven... so that i can just leave it there for 40 min....
... so that i can study while waiting for my food to cook....
Case in point 2:
have had a few dreams about medicine... or can no longer go to sleep naturally... but rather with various body processes running through your head you realise.... CRAP.. i think i've forgetten this and that.... (thereby not being able to sleep)... and resist getting out of bed to grab a book to fill in that missing blank... shutting your eyes tight and tossing and turning trying to think sleepy thoughts....
Case in point 3:
erm i had a cold.. and had to take some meds... hence taking meds for my breathing?! erm... okie... but Praise God... He's healed me!:)
year 1 medics asking me questions abt their work... or *gasp* *shock shock horror horror shock shock horror* start quizzing me abt year one stuff... the gall(bladder)! the (sympathetic, parasympathetic and peripheral)nerve!
nah... i need to revise year one stuff... and am so hungry for year 1 revision that i'm more than pleased to TRY to answer their questions to see how much i remember!
Case in point 2:
year 2 medics start quizzing me... Weiyao and Karl and trying to be top contenders on this end heh....
Case in point 3:
Even Non-medics (yes we're not a bunch of antisocial freaks... heh.....) have gotten in on the act... as can be witnessed from net darling Nev Nah....
nev :: nah says: RECTAL
divinesummerbliss says: er yeah rectal

divinesummerbliss says: we have to explain the procedure to the patient
divinesummerbliss says: so
divinesummerbliss says: i'm trying to come up with a better line then
divinesummerbliss says: i'm going to examine your back passage
nev :: nah says: SIr, I'm going to stick this finger up your arse
nev :: nah says: you might feel a little discomfort, or pleasure. whatever rocks your boat.
nev :: nah says: whatever the case, please do not defecate on my finger.
nev :: nah says: thank you.
gotta love nev!
