Wow, I have been away for quite some time...well, not that many people reads my blog anyway:(
I finally had a chance to breathe after the long, hectic gynae posting....Actually, it was rather smooth-going and interesting initially till thursday....when everthing just took a 180 degree turn....i find myself suddenly dragging to finish the posting :(
Starting Sem 9 so far has taught me a great lesson...It made me felt that I finally have to thoroughly equip myself with all the knowledge and management principles and learn things as a whole, rather than just touching everything superficially...I realized that now I have to gather as much knowledge as I can before I can become competent and handle my patients in the near future....
That is why, I don't mind spending most of my times in the wards and clinical settings where I know I can experience some form of clinical skills, something that can't be just read off the textbook....Despite being in the wards EVERY single day, I have to be scolded like this! OMG! I know I was late for one day...and that was entirely my fault, but I cannot possibly force ever single student to go to the wards rite? Wat is the point of forcing them to come when their heart is not even there to learn? TOTALLY POINTLESS! I am there because I want to learn something out of it, therefore I took the initiative to be there even on the day before and on the day of exams! HAIH, and i still have to be scolded :( But, nvm, I shall pray for the one who scolded me, I have learnt not to rant or be too quick to judge a person, you have your own reasons :)
Anywayz, I just got back from a very powerful sermon delivered by Pastor Chris Kam. AMAZING! He talked about storms of life and how as Christians, we grow more during our time of difficulties and challenges...and though how much we've seen things happen to others, nothing beats the experience when that harsh reality just hits you hard on the face out of the blue...
He told us that he learnt how to say what and how during challenges instead of asking why....
His testimony about his experience with his son, Ian having epidermoid cancer was really touching...especially when he related it to a hymn written by....( I can't remember the name) hehe in the 1800s....Really touching...A lot of people cried after listening to his sermon and he ended of well with singing a song, What A Friend We Have in Jesus...I could hear he was already struggling with his own emotions :(
This year has been a really good start for me in terms of spiritual growth, and I have to admit I do grow especially during times of challenges when I really just have to depend on the Lord. I really felt myself growing up especially after sem 9 started...the end of the tunnel is coming I guess :) hopefully I would be able to pass all my exams and graduate as scheduled. And I really long to pour out my best in all the postings and I pray that nothing bad will surge and dampen my "learning" spirits :( just like the incident on Thursday, I really should not let these things overwhelm me :(
Anywayz, I would be baptised soon and this would be another level/step of faith for me...BMEW was such a good weekend...It really revealed to me how God worked in the lives of others....I have been so constrained with all the hustle bustle of med school that sometimes it really blinds me on what is happening outside Seremban Hospital :( Anywayz, it was a very refreshing weekend and a good weekend that every Christian from DUMC should go for!
Till the next posting, Anaes and Radio! TATA!
