Helloooooo.
Just feel like dropping a few words here as me, this lazy girl, still havent manage to pack myself up to face the challenging clinical training ahead. Well, I might or might have not mentioned, I made it to Semester 6 of my medical course, eventhough I couldn't continue my degree in partner medical school overseas due to my bad English, I'm glad that I actually made it lah. It's because all this while I have been thinking medical school is nothing to me. I passed one exam and another without studying constantly. Now in clinical training, it's a total different world now.
Currently having my training based at Hospital Tuanku Jaafar Seremban- a tertiary hospital of Negeri Sembilan. Being a tertiary hospital, it's almost on par with GHKL, but because here in HTJ we don't have every up-to-date equipment, some of our patients will still be referred to GHKL. All but all, this is a really busy hospital and I couldn't be happier that IMU made this hospital as our training hospital.
Currently in my second week in Sem 6, first week in surgery posting. (last week was just useless orientation) What works differently here compared to IMU Bukit Jalil, it's really self-directed learning. We had to be at the ward by 7.30am every morning to follow ward rounds. And we are expected to stay in the ward until 12.30pm. Have lunch and come back, and have some clinical skills classes or case discussion in the afternoon. Submitting one case report every week, despite of the stupid super lengthy report format. Do at least one oncall session a week. Weekends we are supposed to go to the ward as well. This is alright. Wait for it.
We then need to participate in giving a medical seminar. Around 15 person in a group to work on a seminar.
We then are also required to carry out a research project (like serious shit research) and to be done before we end our semester 7.
We then are also supposed to prepare for 4 examinations in this semester.
We then are also needed to find a patient so that we can follow up, have home visit for the patient for two years before we graduate.
Chill, I'm just talking about semester 6. We'll talk about sem 7/8/9/10 when I get there ok?
okies. time to prepare for my presentation tomorrow. woohoo fml. Why am i here in Medicine again?!?!?! (I'm feeling like an angel being so hardworking for the first time in my life.)
