Brenda


brenda copy2, originally uploaded by ou yang.

ahh after a hiatus from blogging (thanks jos for kicking me out of my slumber) i'll be posting more photos over the next few days.

life has been crazy! and recently, its been a little extra and over the top - what with psychiatry exams and dear Brenda back from the states. Theres only 2 more weeks to go so im really going to treasure the time i spend with her. time has literally flown away since she got back...

oh and before i forget: i got a bloody depressed patient for the IMH exam. why not mania? or schizophrenia? no, i have to get a bloody somatising depressive patient who refuses to admit he has had a low mood. why!

Its no fun to clerk a patient with the clock ticking when he has latency of speech and poverty of ideas...

"hello mr tan, how are you today?"
pause
pause
pause
"wo heng hao"
"what brought you to the hospital?"
pause
pause
*tearful affect*
pause
"mei you shi, wo de jiao tong!"
pause
"wo heng hao"

damn! i never even got to finish assessing suicide risk before the time was up!

B/w Brenda

Such fun microscopes are - the tools of trade for the bloody pathologists.

heres a little joke:

surgeons know nothing but do everything,
medicals know everything but do nothing,
psychologists know nothing and do nothing,
pathologists are special because they know everything - but too late.
