    How do you castrate a lamb?

    Not for the faint-hearted... or people with testicles. Don't say I didn't warn ya.


    Surprisingly, it is supposedly more humane to castrate lambs this way instead of strangulating the tail and scrotum over a few days. You'll know what I mean when you check out Mike Rowe's speech on lamb castration - this guy can really talk! That's probably the very reason why I still think that he makes the best host for Dirty Jobs ;)

    The greatest teachers...

    Are not doctors...
    ... But patients themselves.

    It is only through their graciousness and willingness to share, do we learn and become real doctors.

    A Breather!

    At last! I can now officially sink into the sofa and watch movie marathons without feeling guilty.

    The first thing I did when I reached home after my paper is to bathe Belle. Soaped her TWICE and groomed her so thoroughly that I think she's cleaner than me now. The poor girl's been neglected by me for quite awhile, and I haven't been taking her out for walks! Not that she has stamina for many walks anyway hahaha. Still, I'm so sorry my baby girl!

    I shall attempt to bake cupcakes/muffins/cookies sometime this week! It's so fun experimenting recipes and learning to master the new oven. I hope this batch won't turn out burnt like the previous one!

    Me wants a much loooooooonger break...

    The Mysterious Violinist


    This is the part of Celine Dion's concert when the solo violinist makes his appearance! Gosh, there's just something about guys who play music professionally! They are so... mysterious. Not a word needs to be spoken but you can feel all the emotions pouring out from the way they play their instruments and the way they deliver the melody.
    And also maybe from the occassional (mesmerising) eye contact that they give to the camera hahaha.

    Now if you'll excuse me, I shall carry on swoooooooooooooning over him...

    P.S. Does anybody know who he is??? I don't even know his name!

    Update: His name is Jean-Sebastien Carré!!! :D Thanks wl!

    I Surrender (To Pathology)

    Heh heh just kidding.

    Make way for vocal powerhouse Celine Dion!
    If I were half as good as she is, I'd die happy.
    Prepare to get goosebumps.

    My Sister's Keeper

    My Sister's Keeper is one of my favourite books, and I'm really glad that the movie didn't disappoint!

    Although the movie's ending is different from the book's, it still managed to keep focus on the impactful scenes and capture the essence of the story. The actors and actresses played their roles well and were surprisingly convincing! I teared quite a bit throughout the show, along with the rest of the cinema. In fact, the two ladies sitting in front of me were sniffing so much that I thought they would start sobbing aloud.

    A must-see, even for those who have not yet read the book! Prepare tissue though. You don't want to come out of the theater with smeared mascara all over hahaha.

    I Survived Medicine EOPT!

    Well, for starters, my examiners were much nicer than the one I had in Surgery EOPT :p They were demanding, yes, but in a reasonable manner. And it's definitely nice to see familiar faces again back in CGH :)

    Long case wasn't that great. My patient was a young lady who came in with anaemia. And that was it. She didn't have any symptoms at all. N-O-T-H-I-N-G. She only gave me her blood count number. Luckily I managed to dig out the fact that she is an ESRF (end-stage-renal-failure) patient, which gave me much more direction in my history taking. I'm pinning my hopes on the history taking part to at least warrant me a pass. I can say bye bye to investigations and management, because everything was a blur and I could barely think straight with questions being thrown at me one after another.

    Got to thank all the Gods and Dieties for assigning me the 'ideal' short case stations - A and C. I'm so so so thankful for that, really. Charlotte's prayers really worked!!! Hahaha. Station A was quite a breeze. Station C was quite a bumpy ride, but I'll pass...

    ... I THINK.

    Anyway, now that this HUGE hurdle is over and out, it's time to focus on the next big one - Pathology CA! It's only 7 days away, and I have not started on any revision. Hallelujah.

    Heck, I need my break. Shall go watch "Mirrors" now :)
