Merdeka!!

Merdeka! Merdeka! Merdeka!!

I feel good that I am already merdeka from my small animal practical. Imaging I have to do my practical from 7.30am until 10pm for 2 weeks including saturday and sun. It wasn't that tough actually but just that after one whole day in the ward, no bath, and hug the dog and cat...somehow at the end of the day you will feel tired. That's y all of us will think that being in ward is a night mare?? is it?? Yesterday, I had a discussion with my professor. He came from india and really professional in Surgery. At the end of the discussion, he asked me, was it so tired in ward? Anybody bully you by given lots of job.....? hahahaha...see? everybody thought it's very tiring. Then I answered, well, not really, we are doing well...hahahaha, pandai mengampu lei.....But I enjoy being in ward provided that I have some time to go back home and relax, take bath, eat etc. I was handling a case of dental extraction of a ct. Thus , last night I read about it. Now only I know that we can actually brush the teeth of the animal and it's part of the dental care. And different species has different tooth brush and toothpaste!!!!

Surgery




This is taken before surgery. Each group will have a dog for surgery procedure that had been planned for that day eg spaying, castration, pinning for leg fracture, operation on the abdomen etc. Each person in the group has their own task such as anaesthetist, surgeon, asst surgeon and nurse.

We have to do a physical examination, checking heart rate, respiration and temperature and other signs to confirm the risk of anaesthesia and see if the dog can proceed to the surgery. The we will sedate the dog, wait for 20 minute, when the dog is ready, we will prepare it for surgery....While waiting for the dog to get sedated, we will sit beside and company him...hahaha to 'calm him down'.....and also to take picture like this..... fun lei???.....:D

Be cool !!


Aiyo...today I received another part of my first test..As I already failed my first part of my first test, here come the second part of my first test, and I prayed that I will pass this test, but unfortunately, I was at the border line! :( ....well, If I wanted to make myself relief, I could tell myself that only 30% of my friends passed the test..but but...I keep telling myself, there is no reason for me to fail the test...because I did studied!! Luckily, my lecturer is very kind. She said we can go to see her and spell all the answer infront of her without mistake (most of our marks get cut because of wrong spelling), then she will give us marks, so that those at the border line can pass.....Wau...she is very kind and I am going to do my best to make sure I pass this time..Wish me Luck!!! But I stilll cant believe that I failed the test....very upset...ok..like other always said, be cool, be steady and be prepared to continue the journey...

My unlucky day!!!


Today it's a bad day for me...Early in the morning, I have to present my clinical case of a cat. Just prior to my presentation, I could not open my power point file, for some reason it hang. Oh my god, I got to present it without the screen and only at htat time that I forgot to bring my notebook with all the information in it. I have to squeeze my brain to remeber all the information....It's disastrous!! Next, I found out that I failed part of my first test...I just had the test 2 days ago...and I can't believe that I fail that section...Oh god, this is the first time I ever fail a test.....Disastrous!!!!
Dun Worry Be Happy!!!
