Some thoughts

Everyone has their rights to their thinking and beliefs. Yet, people never liked to be disagreed upon. Support is something we always wanted. That makes us friends. Science always wanted consensuses. Yet, that do not means they are based on any evidences, it just comes from experiences. Nevertheless, I really do not believe much in evidence-based practice, people make up results and hence you often find Cochrane Systematic Review Database saying, "there is not enough evidence to prove that... ...". Evidences are for the police and lawyers and not so much for clinicians and doctors. We need experiences written down by our seniors, consultants and experts. Clinical research is critical but there is often too much variable among patients for a good comparison. By the way, people will continue with more and more researches (which I myself will be doing it). Well, this gives us the power! The POWER to say that this is right! The power to produce evidences that I am RIGHT in court. The POWER to justify that I am INDEED right. Experts are experts. But evidences rule above all.


Once, the environment shaped us and now, we shapes the environment. The difference is that the environment did good to us in any aspects of life but we as human, are harming the environment. This shows that humans are selfish and self-centred. We always think we are right (at least at the very first moment)and so people come up with evidences to justify our doings. The world has gone insane.

I really really nice place indeed.

Interesting finding @ oxford

I realize I can't stay in the UK during the winter season for long because I depend on my mouth for breathing. At first, I didn't realise the reason for the discomfort over my throat every time I wakes up in the morning even when I try to hydrate myself with plenty of water. Until today, I found the reason to it when I had a really bad sore throat. I realize that my throat felt so much better closing my mouth but I couldn't do that for long as it makes me suffocate. I just found out that I have restrictive "nose" disease. I have so much difficulty breathing with my nose, I might just be another COPD patient without my mouth. It is something sad to know about. One thing, I couldn't survive long with the dry and cold air outside unless I have a humidifier with me or a sweet helping me to produce ample of saliva for lubrication. Oh well. Will my body adapt to this? Stop giving sore throats!

A frustrating fact.

week 04

This is the 4th week here in oxford, amazing isn't it? Time really fly by so quickly then you can ever imagine it. Work is taking up most of my time and energy and I loved that it had. My patients today had been literally shitting all over the place. It was a disaster but it would be somethings I will be remembering for a long time. There is so much that can happen in a day that makes you end up laughing in tears.

It has been snowing the whole morning but all the snow has melted once I was dismissed from work. How I hope I can build a snowman from that! :P I hated the snow and just wanted to get some fun out of it but I missed the chance. :P

Enjoyable placement but I miss the people back at home.

:) Mixed feelings.

I am really frustrated with the Internet service I having here. I couldn't even a photo onto the Internet! Anyway, I have great fun at the Oxford Ice Rink today. I love skating here, strong rock music with ample amount of space. I might try going to the Disco night held every Friday and Saturday night, it would be a memorable experience skating in the dark with colourful lights and blasting music. Rather than traveling to far away places, I am finding places near my accommodation and that is enjoyable for myself. I really DISLIKE being outdoor in the cold and dark.

Yesterday, I went to Blenheim palace which is currently the home to the 11th Duke and Duchess of Marlborough and the birthplace of Sir Winston Churchill. It is set in 2100 acres of beautiful parkland surrounded by sweeping lawns, award-winning formal gardens and the great Lake. Took great pictures! Hope I can upload it here some days.

Back to work tomorrow.

A picture of me inside the Corpus Christ Church. :)
-took 30mins to upload this pic :P

Recent update

Dear all,

It's marvelous. I am almost a staff now or I can actually call myself a staff. The staffs are giving more work than they are doing themselves. I have managed 7 patients in 2 hours today! That means I can actually manage 28 patients in a day. That sounds awesome. The fact that I am working hard makes me so exhausted after each day and that is a very marvelous thing as it makes me feel less lonely after work. I always want to eat and sleep. :P

I have less motivation to go traveling on weekends without my buddy around. It just seems that a memory without somebody to share with is not a complete memory. Maybe, I will go to some nearby places instead. The weather is so cold and it makes me hesitate to go to places too far away. It get so freezing cold at night! It seems like I will just freeze anytime. Oh well, this will save me some money for my graduation trip! :)

Anybody wants to go to lake district with me on the 13th of March?

London is cool as ever.

Went for the lion king musical! Awesome! I might visit London for one more time. Maybe, the hustling city is the best place to travel alone. I still love london. haha. Oxford is a cool place too. :) Adopt to the place.

in oxford @ John Radcliffe hospital

Hi everyone,

It's been long since I lasted blogged. There has been so much stuffs going on about life that stopped me from blogging. I am currently in oxford, it's a real magnificent ancient place but I really didn't like the weather around here. Too cold. My face has attacked by the wind and the snow today. Bad. Snowing isn't as beautiful as I thought it would be if I was actually in the snow myself. >< Well, if you know what that means.

It's been busy at work. I worked 11 patients yesterday!(compared to 4 -5 in HK) Working environment here is really different. You spent a lot of time with the patients and the ward is so spacious and luxurious. Great facilities, patient-care etc. etc.

Went to a pub with a friend here for dinner. Had a great chat and drink. :)

Last weekend...
Windsor on Saturday
Cadbury Chocolate Factory on Sunday

cool cool cool...

Everything is great except for the weather that is making my nose sick. >< :)

Cheers!

Extreme stress

Extreme stress.

Self-created?

Herpas simplex conquering my mouth.

Got to learn to relax.

I am still on-time.

There is never equality in this world.

Learn to face it.

Entering 2010

爸爸的心血　身體中遺留　祈求延續你成就沿路愉快演奏
即使不算優秀　獎盃我沒有　我在你那眼中仍似個寶寶多麼罕有
跌倒不用怕羞　似是我小時候 當哭得太久　樣樣自責不夠
你是個每一天　重建我身份的小宇宙　生於這個地球
就算一剎找不到出口　你珍惜便夠


很忙很忙， 很想很想放一个REAL HOLIDAY!

HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!

Change to INFJ

Idealist Portrait of the Counselor (INFJ)
Counselors have an exceptionally strong desire to contribute to the welfare of others, and find great personal fulfillment interacting with people, nurturing their personal development, guiding them to realize their human potential. Although they are happy working at jobs (such as writing) that require solitude and close attention, Counselors do quite well with individuals or groups of people, provided that the personal interactions are not superficial, and that they find some quiet, private time every now and then to recharge their batteries. Counselors are both kind and positive in their handling of others; they are great listeners and seem naturally interested in helping people with their personal problems. Not usually visible leaders, Counselors prefer to work intensely with those close to them, especially on a one-to-one basis, quietly exerting their influence behind the scenes.

Counselors are scarce, little more than one percent of the population, and can be hard to get to know, since they tend not to share their innermost thoughts or their powerful emotional reactions except with their loved ones. They are highly private people, with an unusually rich, complicated inner life. Friends or colleagues who have known them for years may find sides emerging which come as a surprise. Not that Counselors are flighty or scattered; they value their integrity a great deal, but they have mysterious, intricately woven personalities which sometimes puzzle even them.

Counselors tend to work effectively in organizations. They value staff harmony and make every effort to help an organization run smoothly and pleasantly. They understand and use human systems creatively, and are good at consulting and cooperating with others. As employees or employers, Counselors are concerned with people's feelings and are able to act as a barometer of the feelings within the organization.

Blessed with vivid imaginations, Counselors are often seen as the most poetical of all the types, and in fact they use a lot of poetic imagery in their everyday language. Their great talent for language-both written and spoken-is usually directed toward communicating with people in a personalized way. Counselors are highly intuitive and can recognize another's emotions or intentions - good or evil - even before that person is aware of them. Counselors themselves can seldom tell how they came to read others' feelings so keenly. This extreme sensitivity to others could very well be the basis of the Counselor's remarkable ability to experience a whole array of psychic phenomena.

Mohandas Gandhi, Sidney Poitier, Eleanor Roosevelt, Jane Goodall, Emily Bronte, Sir Alec Guiness, Carl Jung, Mary Baker Eddy, Queen Noor are examples of the Counselor Idealist (INFJ).

nov 2009

Dear family and friends,

It seems like I have disappeared for quite a long time. Indeed, I have. It has been long since I find the energy and time to settle down and update my blog. I am finally done with my 2 consecutive placements and obtained good grades but it also marks the end of my student life in the hospital. I seriously need a break before school starts again. I am in need of this buffer time to re-charge myself. I NEED TO REJUVENATE!!!

Life has been so busy with me and boyfriend that we did not even have the time to spend the whole day together for the past month.

5+ months in HK as a 21 years old girl. What should I choose to do?

Studies seems to be the last priority on my list, yet, I am spending so much time on it. The world is really a chaos. Can I make time for a short holiday? X'mas?

Happy 21st Belated Birthday to all my friends who have turned 21st. I might be so busy that I forget these important dates of yours.

Memories that touched my heart.

CEIII-II @TWH

Picture of the recent me. :)
It has really been an enjoyable placement though.
I will miss you guys.

CEIII-I @CMC

The best placement!

CEII-II @ QMH


Hard work but learned a lot.

CEII-I @ QEH

A growing process for me.

CEI-I @ PWH

Unaware of the unknowns in physiotherapy back then. :P

My final destination

養和醫院 物理治療部

Music is life.

thoughts

Whenever we are lonely, we will think of home. It is a place where we can be ourselves. Sometimes, I wonder whether this dramatic life I have in Hong Kong is merely an illusion or a major turning point in my life.

From the moment I stepped in this land of wonder, unprecedented events started to happen in my life. I accomplished things that I never believed that it would have happened.

In 2007 and 2008, academic studies and extra-curriculum activities become a major part of my life. I spent so much time studying and integrating into this environment. I come to succeed so well -- scoring straight As, winning medals, piling up records in my CV and knowing many people around me. Frankly, I had not totally get use to this lifestyle till I was Year 02. I used to tear quite a lot when I was stressed and despaired and they were the times that I wished I was not that independent.

In 2009, I begin to fall in love and it was another lifestyle change. I spent more times indulging in my love affairs rather than doing my usual routine. Yet, I believe that this is one of the most wondrous things that had ever happen in my life and had brought to me tremendous happiness. However, there is always two sides to a coin especially in a situation like mine.

Graduation would be another lifestyle change. My career, my love life and my family life. I am seriously not well-prepared and this has made me fear, troubled and de-motivated. I should learn to think more of the positive sides of things. To stay strong.

一步一步走在空蕩的街
冷風中開始凝結我的淚　它已經一點一點
淚濕了太多想念　是不是

讓心痛著的感覺
習慣不成眠　我不需要安慰　不想停歇

有時候　只是想讓自己冷靜一點
有時候　只是想讓自己勇敢一點
怎麼料想我會離不開你的身邊

Graduation will be another turning point and adaptation.
2 years later, I will be facing another turning point.
Frankly, I have predicted loads of chest pain and tear among these years. All the more, I need to stay strong. Life is full of challenge. Just remember, "smiles always!"


Let's me. Loved always.
I need to stay happy! :)

P.S. Maybe, I should be home packing.

><

I just wish to do the things I like but life is just full of limitations. I hate that.

Why can't my brain remember things that is happening in my brain?
Why can't my heart understand the importance of understanding the heart?

It is ridiculous!

I am over-frustrated.

My amygdala is now making me aggressive.

argg...

Recently

I need to admit the fact that I am really weak in cardiology and neurology. The problem lies with my lack of interest in such areas. I can only relate physiotherapy with manual physical contact. Nevertheless, I need to be more stimulated to get through this 6 weeks of placement. How I wish I was still in an outpatient setting...

Some photos of Hainan's island
The place was really beautiful but it lacks the warmth from the local citizens. Maybe, Taiwan or Japan is a better choice for complete relaxation.






Last placement @CMC
A happy & fruitful experience
