Waiting…

Waiting

Today is Tuesday. We did not have a morning meeting. I arrived at about 8 AM, waiting for the round. Theoratically, Dr. Zhuang (GM) should come at about 10 AM, but the first time I saw her today is at noon. We, the interns and I, were told to have the round at nearly 2 PM. But as time went by, it seemed Dr. Zhuang is having a meeting. And now, we are all waiting.

I had read the charts. I studied. But now, I feel a little bored. So I opened the firefox and wrote something weird. Oh… I must be very bored.

Fancy's Current Situation

RAM

I forgot which day last week, I suddenly found that I couldn't connect to Fancy in VGHTPE. Based on the past history, I guessed maybe a power failure turned the machine off. Because I had something to do that night, the reset was delayed one day. But when I checked it, it hung without reaction. I didn't know what's happened, and I reset it and waited until it returned to work.

Good times didn't last long. Before I went to bed, it crashed again. I thought there might be something wrong about the RAM. I delayed several days, and fortunately when I went to the room, I found the whole office was going to be moved. I moved the machine back to my room in a hurry. If I didn't did that, maybe there would be more days delay because I didn't have the key for the new room. Keep Reading

腎臟科見習

晨會

腎臟科晨會非常的不固定,不,應該說所有會議都非常的不固定,雖然每個禮拜總醫師都會更新每週行事曆,但真正按表操課的機率,感覺起來不到一半。晨會只有總醫師、interns和clerks參加,討論的內容也不太一定,總醫師自己也不知道要講些什麼好,我們當然也不知道要聽什麼好,反正就是閒聊閒聊。開會的時間通常也會稍微晚一些,每天都可以悠閒地在員工餐廳吃早餐吃到快八點再上樓,不過養成這樣的習慣,要早起實在有點困難。 Keep Reading

Department of Ophthalmology

MyEye

I had finished the OPH clerk training this week. At the OPD and the operation room, I studied very hard. The nurse said she hadn't seen any clerk as earnest as me. Oneday, Dr. Lin asked if I'd like to become a ophthalmologist. I answered that may not be possible because I wasn't at the top. "The grade isn't the most important thing.", he said, "It's more important to marry a good wife."

Sigh, at this time, at this department, how couldn't I think about Kilo and feel sad when hearing this.

眼科見習

晨會

眼科的晨會跟一般的並沒有很大差別,只不過出席的人數相當的多,以前好像沒看過這麼多人出席的晨會,還有一個現象是,他們會團體訂購早餐,可能是因為每天早上查房的時間早,所以大家會訂早餐到會議室吃。順道一題,那間會議室的空調真是強到不行,人多的時候還好,要是只有幾個 clerks 和 interns 在裡面時,一整個冷。 Keep Reading

耳鼻喉科見習

晨會

ENT的晨會不是每天有,而且是分科來進行了,每科meeting的方式不大相同,但都有個特色是很愛用英文報,應該是主任希望訓練用英文 present 的能力吧!大概是因為非母語的緣故,總覺得講話聲音平平,不怎麼吸引人,如果這種情形發生在中文的演講,情況可能不會那麼糟。而且我們這週看到的晨會,好像多是由VS甚至是科主任報paper的讀書心得,與麻醉科主要是由 intern 和 R 來報有很大的差別。 Keep Reading

麻醉科見習

晨會

麻醉科的晨會大概是到目前為止的科最讓人吃不消的吧!早上七點前要到,還得換好手術衣,意思就是得六點二十起床,還得邊走路邊吃早餐過去,好不容易撐了五個禮拜的嘴巴,結果在這個禮拜裡一次破了四個洞。晨會的內容有一部分是在報 paper,另一部分是 case report,話說第二天不小心抽到禮拜五要上台報 paper時,我就努力的觀察每個人的報告方式和內容、時間掌控等等。果然有壓力的情況下比較不會睡著。其實他們在報的時候,台下幾乎沒有電力可言,頂多只有某一次下午由他們自己的醫師報自己的 paper 時,發問的比較踴躍,是因為電自己人馬上有解答,還是往不好的一方面想,比較看不上自己人的研究?(我太黑暗了!)

A Lesson From PageOne

PageOne

I went to Computex Taipei 2006 with rin1999 today, and before we went back to school, we went to PageOne and Eslite bookstores. I bought 3 books at PageOne, two are in Simplified Chinese, and the other is Harry Potter 6. The price of Harry Potter is 439 NTD, and the original price is 7.99 GBP. Because the currency conversion is favorable for me, I picked it up. But when I found the price at Eslite is 100+ NTD lower, I was about to be crazy. Why did I not check the price on the internet first? The excess money could bring me a delicious meal. Originally, I'd like to go back and exchange it with another book, but I was too tired to walk back. Fine, it did give me a lesson.

家醫科見習

晨會

家醫的病房是跟其他人共用的,所以晨會的地點不固定,會在 B058 和 B087會議室調換,晨會每天的主題不一樣,有時是報 journal,有時是高齡醫學的case,也有其他感覺比較一般的討論。參與人員似乎並不多,多數只有一位 VS,一個總醫師,一個 R,剛好還有一個 intern,另外加上幾個 fellow。clerk 會不會被問到問題要看老師,不過就算被問也都還蠻和藹可親的,黃信彰主任更是肝炎疫苗的活百科,聽他講古也還蠻有趣的。禮拜三早上的晨會相當的長,加起來應該有兩個多小時,不過有個好處是有早餐可以吃,相對於禮拜三晚餐時間的 meeting,算是還不錯的。 Keep Reading

New Session For Hospital Work

I am in FM this week.

This morning, I met two Kilo's classmates at the station. They seemed not to know me, and I didn't tell them either. I don't know they were running PGY course or FM is their subjects, but they seemed just to do their works for the first day.

I felt a little sad when seeing them. I thought about Kilo. She is now doing her work in CCH, also for the first or second day. Does she adapt to the new environment? Do the staff there treat her well? Sigh… Think more of her makes me sadder and more depressed.
