Not much time to post. Today I have a big test , I think its easy , I'm not really worried. Probably gonna ace it. Hopefully .
Just saw something incredibly sad/bad. The patient doesn't know it yet how bad it is. A 15 , probably less kid , came alone to the office I'm in , at the national onchology institute. Yep , his parent was somewhere else , don't know where.
The kid gave the doctor his latest lab results and told him to go to the examination room. The doc looked at us and gave us the "guillotine" sign.
Turns out the kid has a conjuctival melanoma. Signs? , a small black spot in the eye. That's it..
So there's only one treatment.. Assuming that the tumor isn't taking half of his brain already (and there's a very high risk it has) , the only treatment is removal of both eyes.
Plop.. =/
I hate onchology...

Draaaaaaaaama
No we did not adopt a sheep at the GITR offices.
Drama seems to be in the air this season , personally i'm more of a horror/comedy (not romantic) kinda guy. Drama is just... too dramatic >.>
Shit is happening around me and its hilarious to see everyone going nuts. Its like the whole world is going to hell. Maybe i had my eyes closed for a while , but now i'm seeing things that i didn't notice before (one of those HOLY SHIT! , moments)
Chaos is everywhere , and i don't know what exactly triggered this (maybe the earthquakes?! ) , but its kinda creepy. Right now i'm supposed to be "taking sides" , or judging what's "right or wrong" . Is there such a thing? . Lately i'm thinking that there's only actions , and each one of em comes with pro's and con's . I'm done trying to take the moral high ground , too much trouble defending my own flawed ideals and morals.
You know what? , problems more often arise when we try to avoid the consequences for our actions. That i learned. The hard way T_T . So i'm done making expectations for my future . Its never going to turn out exactly how i want it to , so what's the point? (this week has CERTAINLY proved it ) . That doesn't mean i wont have goals or ambitions , but they won't be the center of my life . I'm just gonna enjoy the ride for as long as it lasts , with all the ups and downs. With all the tragedies and happy moments. Can't have one without the other.
"Life is not about suffering , but you will suffer it rather than enjoy it until you let go, and just go along for the ride. "
Hellmonth/or simply HELL , is coming soon . Won't have much time for anything. It's going to be long , exhausting and hard. Just like it always is , just as i have come to expect it. So here we go once again. Shit happens. But so does the good stuff.
As for the shitstorm going around. I'm gonna grab my beach chair and sit down with a gigantic bucket of popcorn . Its going to be one hell of a show. @_________________@ . Hopefully there will be fireworks at the end! . I love those =P . Hell , its not like i don't have my own stuff to worry about =/ , you know what i mean.
So that's about it folks... i don't think ill be posting much until its all over , but you never know. Do you? . Good luck all with your own biz , and remember ,
LET THE GMAN SHIIIINE ON YOUR HEARTS!

@_@ Grade Day @_@
Dear god of grades , i thank thee for your kindness this semester. I know you and i have had our share of disagreements the last two semesters (specially the last one , you S.O.B >_<) but i'm glad we are finally working out our problems.
After all that has happened the past couple of months , this is one of my best semesters, considering that this is considered one of the hardest semesters , the 11th semester. (not that anyone says that 12th is a walk on the park ) .
The 1/2 results are in.
3 A's , 2 B's , 1 C and 1 D - 2 subjects are still not published, but i expect A's or B's- - (fucking hematology >___________< ) . The race is not over yet though! , and the last half is going to be hell, but i will not falter! .
As to why i got a D in Hematology ... well , let's just say its one of those "impossible" classes. I studied a lot , i know the subject well , but it's impossible for me to do well if the teacher tells me to study from X place and gets the question out of Y .
Anyways , i'm not particularly worried about the subject. The highest grade in the class was a C (a very LUCKY c) , and pretty much everyone has a D. I have never heard of anyone getting A with this teacher. It's that hard. One of my partners asked the teacher for a curve and she told her , and i quote , " Oh don't worry... i don't give curves , but no one has ever failed my subject , my calculator always adds up to 70" .
So there you go.
Au contraire to my last 2 semester , its good NOT to be in the danger zone (a relative danger zone i guess, considering i almost got an A in one of the subjects , and in the other one the teacher simply hated me - she actually quit the job after a coup we staged >_> ) . Too much stress, too many sleepless nights.
Well that's it for today peeps. Good luck with your own stuff. Bai! .
