DONE!

yes..the bloody MBChB V finals are over!

the only spark in this fckn ordeal was today's osce - which i am ever so grateful to Allah for, cos i actually knew wht direction to head for my hx and examination stations - im obviously NOT saying i was awesome, i was juz glad tht despite being a bumbling-babbling-idiot, i actually knew (sorta) wht i was doing.....

my stations:
  1. surgical hx - claudication
  2. med exam - parkinson's
  3. med exam - cardio (murmur + HF management + RA hands with gouty tophus)
  4. surgical exam - spleen

i still strongly believe im gonna fail and have to re-do this horrible yr again, bt at this moment, the feeling of "..aaah...it's OVER" juz trumps any other feeling...:)

i juz pray tht i wont be at the receiving end of THE phone-call....

oscillation?!?

this is a rough excerpt of my conversation with mama yesterday - bloody hillarious! :)

mama: tell me again wht exactly your OSCE exam is?
me: OSCE = objective structured clinical examination
mama: oooh...O.S.C.E.....ok...when i tell ppl, they keep asking me about oscillation..
me: oscillation? bt im doing medicine - not physics! - why oscillation?
mama: i dunno...u juz did urology right...oscillation might play a part....
me: haha...bt isnt it dangling, as opposed to oscillation?...and NO! either way, they dont play a part in the urology assessment....

moms are the best aren't they? ;)
