There are too many things we don’t know very much. Remember not to make a statement easily before you find out all the situation. That may enrage somebody and you don’t know, especially when the statement is strong and he shirks his responsibility and shift the blame onto others.
Rancy’s Robe-hooding Ceremony
Last Friday was Rancy’s Robe-hooding ceremony, which is an important ceremony for the 6th grade medical students who are going to leave the campus and enter the hospital. I had a diary in Chinese here, but I’m too lazy to translate it. :p
Hana asked me to send her Rancy’s photos after reading my diary. I tried to collect some from the MedDep’s and mine. Those taken by Bonehead haven’t been collected. Maybe after he sends me, I’ll add them to the album.
Originally I’d like to send Hana via email, but it seemed something wrong with the email system. So I chose the BubbleShare service to share these photos. (BTW, try to embed the album into my blog. :p)

Start Watching "The White Tower"
Thanks Alcoholic for lending me the DVD.
Although I got this nearly a month ago, I still couldn’t get interest in watching it on weekdays. But after the Keroro episodes had been all watched, I have to switch to this more valuable TV drama, The White Tower.
The story is about a university hospital and the intrigue between several doctors. One of the leading actor, Goro Zaizen (ja), who is a young surgery, sly and he always does things unscrupulously to reach his goals. Another leading actor, Shuji Satomi (ja), who is a physician, has ideals about the relationship between the doctors and the patients. He is a good man, but seems not match to the environment. (Huuu…. It’s so hard for me to describe someone in English… >_<)
Sometimes there are scenes of operation rooms. Maybe because I’m a medical student, I felt it goes into my mind so deeply, especially after the experimental surgery courses (zh-TW) last month. I’ve just watched two episodes. Maybe during the period I watch through all 21 episodes, I’ll be moved by some stories of the drama.

Congratulations, Kilo!
Yesterday, Kilo and her family went southly to Changhua for her application of the first-year resident of the ophthalmology department in Changhua Christian Hospital. The interview is today, and I got her call nearly at noon. She said she’s enrolled, 2 out of 8, but they asked her to sign a contract to ensure that she won’t cheat them.
I thought she’ll be enrolled before she went, but after hearing about this, I still felt so happy. Some for her and some for myself. For her, at least, she won’t get unemployed from now on. For me, If she needs to work there, I’ll have no trouble back at home. I can choose VGHTC, or even VGHKS for my intern training.
Hmmm… Maybe today is a turning point for both of our lives.
偷溜進系辦
話說星期六半夜睡不太著覺，剛巧撞到全校大停電的同時，沒有隔天早上起床怎麼死的都不清楚，不過隔天起床後，還是覺得沒有BBS可以用感覺有點怪怪的，於是決定中午出去吃午餐時順便過去系辦看看。
把機車停在系辦前，其實還蠻擔心會被開單的，所以快速的檢視了一下一樓的大門，當然是鎖著，後來想說之前好像曾經從二樓溜進去護理館過，於是從旁邊的樓梯往上爬，想找到半掩的大門，不過一直找到四樓，大門總是深鎖。繞過四樓的出入口，當然也是鎖著的，本來已經打算放棄了，不過從另一側繞下去時不小心看到一個小門，呼… 裡頭似乎有人在做實驗之類的，因為我帶有點偷雞摸狗的心態，(還穿著拖鞋)，所以在門外遲疑了一陣，也看到一兩個人在走動。
Intern Training in Kaohsiung VGH
Tonight, we had a instruction meeting about the difference of intern training between three veteran general hospitals. When I was younger, I preferred VGHTPE than the others, but after seeing Kilo‘s intern training in VGHTPE this year, I may changed my mind.
VGHTPE is a good teaching hospital, having good teachers and the environment is more familiar for us. But the biggest problem is, you may be abused, doing something trifling, and then you’ll have no time to attend any teaching course.
After the meeting, I like VGHKS most. I don’t dislike VGHTC, but I think it’s too near to my home. :p And compare Taichung with Kaohsiung, Taichung is more familiar for me and I like to experience a more different life, especially after living in Taipei for more than 5 years.
But the chief consideration for me is where Kilo will work. She won’t apply any hospital in Kaohsiung. The farthest place from Taipei she can accept is Changhua, the Changhua Christian Hospital. If I choose VGHKS. It almostly can be said that we’ll be separated for more than one year. I don’t know what will happen if I do so.
There are still several months that I can think about this. I don’t know which is my final decision. (Maybe I’ll be unlucky that I have no choice!!!) But as time goes by, the problem will be bigger and bigger in my mind.

The Piggy Died
I felt tired and slept all the evening. At about 12:00 pm, horawan called me and told me about the bad news, “Our piggy had died.” I didn’t realize what’s happened immediately. Maybe because I was not fully awake at that time. But suddenly, I was startled from sleep, and put on my clothes, setting off to the laboratory.
As I arrived, horawan, wing, and hearter was there. Horawan and wing moved the piggy to another cage when they’d like to inject the antibiotics earlier. I saw there were 2 pigs lied on it. Its eyes opened half and there was no respiration. It took us a lot of work to move the other 2 pigs away from it, and then we picked it up and put in a big plastic bag. Finally, we signed the date and the team number, and then put it in the icehouse.
While doing this, the 1812 Overture sounded in my mind. The piggy was too weak after the second operation. Its weight fell down from 15kg to 11kg, and during this days, it nearly didn’t eat any feed, and just drank a little water. Three days before, we were afraid of its weakness and injected about 700ml glucose water into it. Maybe the procedure precipitated its death?
I felt sad. Maybe because I’m the main operator of the second operation, and in these days, I took care of it with my heart. Hope it’ll rest in peace in the heaven.
