April Fool!

til today I still dun understand why ppl have april fool on the 1st day of April when April is such a great month! anyway...why do we need a day to tell lie to everyone arround us n they are not allowed to get mad bcos of tat? tat's just mean....

anyway, been attached to psychiatry hospital for 3 weeks now. but most of the time i've been away from the hospital for tutorial and teaching. din get to spend much time in the hospital with the team itself. for these 2 days, i've had full days with the team but sad to say tat it wasnt productive for me either. my team onli haf 6 patients whereas the other teams all have 20++ patients. and since i'm in the team with psychosis patient, i din get the chance to actually talk and take history from them. was suppose to do a case this afternoon but the patient refused cos he is tired...according to him while lying under the sun. well...everything in tat hospital is just unpredictable. not liking the psych run so far but actually is more interested in psychology compare to psychiatry. dun like how they just wan the patient to take medication but din spend much time talkin to the patient. but yea...guess tat's one of the way to get them better as well.

after this week will be having a week of "elective". we were asked to write down 5 choices of the department or specialist tat we wan to follow for the week and they will assign us with the doctors according to tat. my choices are:
1. haematology
2. emergency medicine
3. ENT
4. Plastic surgery
5. Opthalmology
not sure which 1 i'll get yet. but guess they all will be quite interesting...hopefully!!

after tat we will be having a week of holiday. planning to join the church camp as well as a trip down to lake tekapo. 3 hours drive south from Christchurch. heard it is a really nice place. cant wait for travelling again...then back to psych again..will be attached to emergency psychiatry for 2 weeks before my osce n end of the run.

Events/places I must visit for at least once:
1. Military tattoo in Edinburgh
2. Rainforest music festival in Kuching
3. University of Otago main campus -_-"
4. 3rd world countries
5. Rescue team!!
