Sulci and Gyri

Last block of 1st year is totally about BRAIN and it's freaking hard. The Walking Gray told us we will be more intelligent if our cerebrum has more sulci (plural of sulcus) and gyri (plural of gyrus)..For your info, the Walking Gray is our head of Anatomy department and he is taking most of our lectures class...

I like this book not because of its contents but its layout

How I wish my brain has more sulci and gyri

Walking Gray during lectures. All the stuff written on da board seem didn't absorbed fully by my brain.

SMS by a Medic Student

"Please stay in my pancreas & be my alpha cell...
For u always secrete glucagon when my blood glucose level is low...
A thought of u is like sending CRH from my hypothalamus to my anterior pituitaty gland to release ACTH and my adrenal cortex to release cortisol...
As a thought of u always make me smile..."
-- sent to me by a friend of mine

I'm using Airtel (like Maxis in India) currently. It provides their users 100 free sms everyday within the same service operator with daily rental of Rs 1 (= to RM0.07). So, SMS-ing is one of entertainment other than sports and studies(lol, since when studying became one of the entertainment)....

Happy 80th Birthday, Grandpa!!!

Today my paternal grandpa celebrates his 80th birthday, only 4 of his grandson and grandaughters which including me are not able to attend for the birthday celebration. Two of them are in US, another one in australia and I'm in India.I missed another chance for meeting up with my relatives and cousins. I called my grandpa this morning to wish him Happy Birthday. I heard the noise over there cuz the house is crowded with my relatives. It made me think of CNY before I came to India in February. I'm gonna miss the chance to celebrate CNY with them next year cuz that time I'll be having university exam. Miss my cousins a bunch....Grandpa, happy birthday and God Bless.

AGAIN!!! But not a bad one

Oh again we lost another basketball game to batch 21 seniors by 2 points in 5 minutes extra time. We were leading almost for the whole game. They scored in the last 30 seconds and made the score 20 all. So, need to play for another extra 5 minutes. During first 4 minutes, both the teams scored. THEY SCORED AGAIN IN THE LAST MINUTE. Game over. It was not a bad game cuz only 8 people remaining. another four are on CAST. Seriously, I really doubt plaster is damn cheap in India...

Comes in Double, might be Triple

Argh!!!! I really need to blog this to release stress... 3 of my first team player are in hospital now, 2 already on cast. Betz is having fracture at her finger joint and faiq's ligament at distal radio-ulnar joint is severely torn. Another one is waiting for doctor. Hope she will be okay. Two already on cast, means only 10 players left. Wah, seem I can't take it already. Anyhow, I can't forfeit the game and at the same time I don't want to lose the game terribly as well.

I still heart U

I've been feeling stressed since the day I decided to join interbatch game for basketball under the influences from many parties. At first didn't want to join cuz I knew my class lack of players and seriously we're not going to win this. For me, to play is to win. And basketball needs teamwork, if there's only a few people that know how to play the game. It's not going to work. We started our training 3 days before the first match after able to get a decent number of players which is so hard to get whereas other batches started their training at least one month ago. At last, we have 12 players with 70% of them are first timers. First match was played against the oldest batch of seniors --Batch 19 on wednesday, we lost the game 35-14. It's expected cuz half of that team is playing for our college. It's okay lost to them. Second match on friday, which is yesterday, against the youngest batch of juniors-- Batch 23, WE LOST AGAIN. okay, i knew this is embarrassing. They really played well, can see the teamwork between them. Two more matches to go against batch 20 and 21. I hope my team really can get through this cuz most of my team players are injured. Though we lost two games in a row but at least all of us fight till the end.

Haih, i really don't know how to put this...I played basketball for 10 years already and never lost like that before. The game made me no mood to study and concentrate after practice. Kind of started to hate this game which I heart so much...

Last In da First

The last block of the first year MBBS course started today, this morning I woke up with a special feelings which I really don't know how to describe it. Today is saturday so only half day class till 1130am. 3 hours of lectures, 3 different subjects, 3 different lecturers, but all 3 of them said the same thing or asked the same questions. "Now you're in which block?" "How many blocks you've been through?" "And 4th block is a tough block, revision for da previous blocks should go parallel with your 4th block." OK, done. I think da whole class really get what they meant. FOR OUR OWN GOOD. Since we finished block exam on friday and the new block start immediately the next day, first day of class 30% of the students are absent cuz they went to visit places and relaxed (frankly, 3rd block really packed) and I agreed this is the only time for them to do so. Though I'm not part of it cuz don't want against my principle. Goa trip really sounds tempting, especially to me. After they came back, there will be no more free time. How can I not have fun after exam? This is so not me. By the way, I'm going Mangalore tomorrow for movie -- Quantum of Solaces and "lepak" a while. Everything will back to hectic after da trip.

Viva Voce

Just finished last biochem theory paper and practical yesterday, and had viva voce this afternoon. I was so tensed when i went into the lecturer's cabin. First question it came, I answered well but incomplete. Second question, he asked: synthesis of creatine phosphate?? My mind suddenly went blank so I asked for hint. "Sir, can you give me some hint, what's the first step?" "Haha, glycine...", he said. "Ok, I know already!" Then, i continued to answer the whole synthesis of creatine phosphate. Anyway, everything is over. 9 weeks to 4th block exam and 13 weeks to university exam. I should come out with a study plan till nex year february. And one question still in my head... Going home or a 20-day trip around India after university exam??? cuz it's time to settle the air ticket stuff again......
