| I don't know what's going on with me, but I like cheese.
and I also like pointy-heely shoes now too. and move over Sports Illustrated, I'm all over the InStyle mags now :)
Rince's post has inspired me to do some random reflections myself as well...
I am thankful for everyone in my life. yes, EVERYONE because you have
all touched me in your own ways and I've become a better person because
I've experienced your kindness and love...and knowing that there's
people around me who will listen and care, is a very comforting thing.
I am also thankful that I can finally live my dream, and I know I'm
fortunate that I have a career that I am very passionate about (minus
the studying part). Being able to make someone feel better everyday,
for the rest of my life, is what i've always wanted to do...but
yah...rectal exams will be a bitch to do...
I am also thankful for attractive boys. and garlic mash potatoes.
and I think i've changed a lot too...in that i'm happier :) maybe age
wears you down or you just become indifferent to shitty happenings, but
I definitely find myself more comfortable with me..haha i guess the
teenage insecurity is gone now? :P one can only hope...
or maybe i am now comfortable with the fact that i don't have to be
perfect all the time, and that i AM inperfect and my flaws are strange
but real...and i don't care what people think anymore, cuz i know i'm a
weirdo and i'm okay with that.
anywho, I need to get back to learning about irritable bowel syndrome
('normal perception of an abnormal event or an abnormal perception of
normal processes'...who knew gastroenterology can be so philosophical?)
peace out homies!

| Now my fucking bike gets fucking stolen, why can't I seem to get a
fucking break this week? I never try to do anything mean to anyone, why
do ppl have to be mean to me?

| okay so there's this office assistant lady at my work place...she looks
like Elizabeth Taylor and she's just *aaaaaahhhhhhh* i can't describe
her. But I am scared shitless of her from day 1. She probably hates
medical students, cuz she sneers at us and talks about us and stuff
like that. But she's suuuuupppppper w/ patients and soooo friendly to
them. The biggest baddest faker ever. Anyway, I stay away from her. But
today I stepped on her tail by accident.
I accidentally deleted the name of one of the patients in the precious
patients database. It's a big deal. Anyway, she was super condescending
about it, i apologized and stuff but damn, this lady has attitude.
She's like 'i can't be sure if it's you guys, but i'm pretty sure it's
u guys' that fuddled it up kinda thing. And she sent an office-wide
email about the incident, implying that these 'students' fooled around
the database.
i wouldn't be so bummed out about it if she had just come straight to
me, and we can work things out. Cuz it took me literally 2 minutes to
fix the problem. Instead, she decides to just announce it to ppl,
instead of looking to resolve the situation.
I think i'm just sensitive, but this bummed me out...a lot...actually
not so much cuz i bitched about it to my friends and rince and mom, and
my friend in 3rd year said, 'get used to it cuz when u go into the
hospital, u'll get a lot of that'. o well.
then i had a green-tea ice cream bbt and smacked a tennis ball around so i felt better.
i never noticed this b4 but there are a ton of ugly plastic bears
dressed up in various costumes EVERYWHERE in downtown. I always see ppl
taking pix with them but they're not even cute.
anything u guys wanna bitch about? we can have a bitch fest!

ARGH! | | |
| YESSSSS I'M SOOOOO DONE! after 2 weeks of HELL! well, more like a
month, but the stress didn't kick in till 2 weeks b4 my exams...
i went to the exam review session and it looks like I got at
least 60% on cardio, pulm, HDI (bugs and poo, among other things),
fergu (renal, pee-pees and fluids), PHEW! no remedial! Unless I bombed
the OSCEs, from not washing my before i touched the patient, and asking
dumb questions ('whats the name of your cat', i asked...wat da hell
karen, u didnt even ask her if she's coughed up blood!)..oops..
although other ppl did silly things too, saying stuff like 'everything
looks good *blush blush*' to a really hot patient, who was shirtless,
after she's examined him..hahaha
and i WASN'T the only person who forgot to wash their hands, although i
was the only person who showed up 30 mins late for the exam...(well it
can only get better from here now right?!)
My goal is to rid myself of everything medicine-related this summer b/c
i think it's really taken over my life...(u know u've studied too much
when the first thing u think of when u hear 'morning stiffness' is
rheumatoid arthritis hehehe)
I need u ppl to put some pzaaaazzzz into my life :P
by the way, anyone wanna go kayaking trip, or hike up garibaldi and
spend the nite there? gimme a shout and we'll make it happen ;) peace
out homies :P
Karen Wong, M
(3 more years till i get the . D. )
