Something blue

Facebook is really something. For me, it's a place where I got to see my fellow school mates and maybe some of my high school friends; about what are they doing right now or how's life in other countries would be. Now, here comes the part which made me cuckoo sometimes. Well, maybe all the times. It hurts when they put up pictures about having some events and stuffs going on and you know, just having fun with your life as a student. But before that, this is a story about frustrations (is it?) or you can call it almost can't-wait-to-get-it-over-with feelings.

By being in boarding school for 5 years, almost every one that I knew who went to the same school as me, is currently studying in countries like Egypt, Australia, Japan, Korea, US or UK. Half of them graduated already. Anyway, what I'm trying to say is, they are so lucky. And I'm super jealous with them.

Unlike them, I don't put up pictures (or maybe I did put up some) about my life in the country that I was offered to pursue medicine. I don't find living in that country as interesting as anything. No words can describe that feeling. Some might say something like "You'll get very enthusiastic when you first landed on any foreign country, but that feeling will eventually fade away". I mean really? I didn't even got excited even at the very first time we landed there. Hmm. Maybe I'm exaggerating or maybe I'm telling the truth. Who knows.

Anyway, why am I writing all this stuff up? Oh, now I remember. This is to remind me that by God's will I'll only have about 1+ year to endure this torture. No, I mean I'll get to finish my degree and become a medical doctor. If I were to describe how my final year of medicine would be, I'll say that it's like swimming into the ocean with fire and piranhas everywhere, sometimes there are sharks with metal saw-like teeth appears out of nowhere, and when it rains, there's only fire and more fire comes pouring down. Wow. That's a whole lot of expressions.

Last but not least, can you believe that at the end of my story I'll get to put the abbreviation 'Dr.' in front of my name? Okay, I can't lie to you but I am psyched about it. Hihi.

Superheros with their super powers

Have you ever imagine what the world would be like if every super heroes you knew came to live? Name a few like Superman, Ultraman, Spiderman, Batman, Catwoman, Wolverine, Professor X, Power Puff Girls, Sailormoon, Cardcaptor Sakura, Mystique (I love her!) and many more. Wouldn't it be a better and safer place for the earthlings? You know what they always want to do; they want to fight evil. Sometimes I really hope that there are super heroes among us for real.

I don't know about you, but the world that I'm living right now is full of sick people. I mean it literally and figuratively. Well, frankly I work and study in a hospital which means I see sick people every single day. When you are to go to the hospital 24/7, expecting to give your 100%, willing to sacrifice your precious time just to go and see your patient, which is some stranger whom is not that close to you, well I bet that you might get sick too. Okay, that's just a random babbling that you don't have to take it seriously.

Back to the main topic, this world is full of sick people. So sick that some times I do think that I might turn into a sociophobic. It terrifies me when I read or watch the news on the TV or internet. It makes me wonder why some people can become so evil such as that? I just can't seem to find the answer. Oh, by the way, I really hope that you could find out the word sick that I'm referring to by yourself. I'm not going to write those words that I'm not comfortable with to explain it.

If super heroes are for real, then we have a chance to make the world a better place. But firstly, they should form a committee or something like that. That way, they'll have their own way of jurisdiction and predicament. You know that, just like in every other fiction movies. Hmm. Wouldn't it be nice?

It might seem like I'm talking gibberish but just note that I really mean that super heroes thingy. Other than that, you can call it gibberish. My mind is in a haywire some times. Last but not least, yesterday was October 13th and have a great day ahead!

Childhood memories

I'm not a big fan of listening to the music. You see, even though I've got a quite good collection of songs in my computer and of course in my phone, I don't update them. Most of the songs that I have is the 90s or 2000 or maybe something in between that.

Nevertheless, I don't listen to music that often. Kind of boring don't you think? I don't know. Well, maybe. I just prefer the sounds of the nature. Although I knew here is not even close to something you call nature. And it's definitely not that I hate listening to good songs though. I enjoy listening to good music. It's just that I don't do it all the time.

Anyway, do you know that I used to grow up hearing songs by Scorpion? Yup. That uber popular rock band. Actually, it's because of my mom. She's a big fan of Scorpion even till now. Back then, when I was little my parents used to travel here and there. Because of how much my mom loves Scorpion, she tended to play the cassette over and over again all the time while traveling.

Guess what? Believe it or not, by the age of a decent toddler I could remember their songs and lyrics perfectly. I kind of memorized it subconsciously. I'm not lying to you. I went karaoke-ing some times before and randomly decided to sing a Scorpion song. Even I'm impressed of myself. I can sing those songs without even having to glimpse at the screen. It's like singing with all my heart. Okay, I'm exaggerating that last part. Hehe.

P.s. I thought maybe I should delete that music folder since I don't listen to it very much. Or will my computer get upset with me if I do that?

Asylum

Psychiatrists are the people who work at the asylum. Psychologists are the people who don't work at the asylum. Or commonly referred to as 'shrink'. At least that's what I thought so. If you have doubt about it just google it yourself.

What I'm saying is I'll never be neither of it. Part of it maybe because I don't think I can handle dealing with mentally unstable person. Another reason is because I don't think I can content my empathy. I might as well show too much of empathy and that's just not good for the doctor patient relationship.

Fyi, it's my last department for my 4th year. Which means this time, I'm really really half way there. Phew! Can you believe it? I can quite believe it either.

Anyway, my exam is just around the corner. Wish me luck!
