Finally i got a chance to go on a trip with my family,
Which i had miss a lot recently throughout this 3 years being a student in USIM. My family would always went to vacations that would always be very fascinating and i would not got a chance to went with them, either i’ve got classes or exams.
Eventhough it was only for 1 day, it was worth it. We went to Sungai KlahHot Springs Park,Sungkai, Perak. Felda made recreation park. Entry ticket is RM10 per person. There were a lot of people, nevertheless i would not miss a chance to went in the pool. There were a lot of pools of various temperature; 30˚C, 45˚C, 50˚C. There is a therepeutic area, egg boiling area, family spa.
Wasn’t really interesting, but at least i could spend my time with my family.
Entering year 3 is very thrilling but at the same time very scary. Thinking that i'm going to face a patient very very soon, is a very heart-throbbing situation. What will I do? Am I capable of doing it?
Last week we did a competency test, and I almost entirely did the wrong things in my work and diagnosis. Thankfully we will have loads of other test throughout this month before we had our hands on a real patient. Hopefully it goes well.
Then we had a seminar held at the faculty, and that was a good break for us from our emotional stress and worse thoughts of what to come.
After this 2 week, there would be a lot of work being done throughout this year. No more lying here and there talking and daydreaming. With my budget running out on books, I might as well read them off as much as it worth. No more letting them dusting away on the shelves like I used to during the past years.
Be prepared for anything to come!
New goal for this year: limit my shopping expenses~
It's all started with an eye sty or better known as 'ketumbit'. I got it on tuesday morning on my right good eye and it started to be very irritating. Still, i had to stand it since we got optech class in the evening. The next day it started to wear off, a good thing since we had optech class the whole day long..(~.~) Then, at night i felt very tired but didn't went to bed immediately like i did previously, but watched a movie with my friends. Unfortunately my eyes couldn't take it any longer and my friend said it was already became red. So i give up trying and went to bed since my head is driving me crazy. On the bed, i couldn't seem to close my eyes and fall asleep, and my head's spinning. i got up off bed and went to the toilet a few times. it was very cold that night. i was forced to wear my overly thick sweater.
I finally got asleep at 2 am.
The next day is when my fever strike. I wake up very late and I feel very exhausted.
I still went for Optech class that day half-heartedly.
I didn’t have the strength to call out the doctor to check my work and tail him around the lab.
So, I just sat and waited at my place.
Fortunately the new doctor was very fast checking all of our work, especially mine since I always got wrong. Thankfully, we only had morning session on that day.
On Friday night, I was shivering like crazy. I turned off the fan, slightly closed the window and covered myself with a blanket and went asleep at 9.45pm.
That night, I couldn’t sleep well, I keep waking up every 2 hours and changing my position.
I thought to myself that I wouldn’t want to go for tomorrow’s optech.
However, I did.
I took things very slowly and carefully and rarely call out for the doctor.
That evening I had to go home by train. Luckily there was Zara to come along. She was taking the same route.
After I had arrived home, I just collapsed.
I had a severe headache, very high temperature, and several sleepless nights. I had a fever for almost a week then.
When your sick, you couldn't remember how does it feel to be healthy.
Many thoughts came running through your head, am i going to be hospitalized again? been diagnosed for something? is this it?
I’m just grateful that I'm healthy again, I think.
