Two weeks of a rotation about the digestive system only served to show me how much hasn't changed since I failed my GI assessment in IMU. Its coming along though. And I've discovered what will probably be my routine for the rest of the year.
I've come to the conclusion that the best way to get stuff out of a rotation is to go around and see all the patients that my consultant takes care of, and follow them throughout the weeks that I'm with him. That way, I learn more when I go around with him, cos I've seen the patients before, and know whats wrong with them. If any new patients come in, I'll know as well. Sounds pretty obvious, but we don't get told to do these things in Liverpool, its our own learning routine that we have to come up with.
And, in the meantime, I've pretty much resolved to try to take more interest in what goes on outside the confines of Barrow as well. So much so that its going to be a weekly reminder sort of basis. A New Year's resolution, if you must. Though I generally don't go in much for that sort of thing.
See, up to now I've basically not been privy to whats been happening elsewhere in the UK, or the world. Most news I get from my housemates during dinner, but at other times, I would either be on the laptop, gaming, or getting work done. In fact, I guess I've become pretty reclusive (!) and up to the point where I just can't be bothered with chatting, or whats going on elsewhere.
When I was back in Msia for the holidays, a friend from school was updating me about how all our yearmates were doing, when she commented on how I rarely kept in touch with ppl. How true.
Don't sweat it; doesn't mean i'll start spamming mailboxes or dveloping a burning desire to see whats on BBC Online or the Star Online every single day. Just that if you've received an email from a sitiawan boy whom you haven't met in ages, try to be kind.
