It was smooth when He's with me



This might be a little late.

But I really wanna share this.

We have all kinds of exams in our medical studies,

from small to major to external.

Well, in my 2nd internal...


I just can’t believe it.

My most feared Anatomy Viva exam turned out to be smooth.

Smooth sailing. I could answer most of the Questions.

The feeling is so good.

Before the exam I was just so confused and lost.

Because so much to cover.



(Being creative as usual (",))


(I wonder what slide is this. kent might know better. Hehe!!)



The scope is too wide.

From Histology to surface marking,

Form organ identifying to radiology,

From embryology to all the gross anatomy.

Wow. It’s just nuts to cover all.

But finals will be even scarier.


I told myself I can’t do this alone.

I’m gonna die half-way. Haha!

So I prayed really hard for God to intervene.

I asked God to give me good professors,

To ask me easy questions,

To give good marks…

And guess what,

HE DID!!


(Our usual anatomy practical dissection..Cherrs!! )



My morning anatomy practical turn out ok.

I got d upper limb, flexor compartment of the forearm,

Which was apparently my favorite part

Because we used to play with the cadavers arm.

Sling it here and there when we first came to uni.

When I got it I started thanking God in my little heart.

Then I wrote some short notes in a paper in with time were given.

Pronator teres, flexor carpi radialis…bla..bla..bla…




Next I got the weirdest organ.

Never in my small mind have I ever thought of getting this.

SIGMOID colon and rectum.

Wow. God really has a sense of humour.

I took up the colon with my bare hands.

No surgical gloves were provided.

But I didn’t cared much.

Exam is more important.

When I started holding the organ in my hand,

All these points about the colon and rectum just popped out.

Cool.

I only recalled reading through the rectum once and very briefly only.

I was really amazed.

Not by my intelligence but by God’s help.


Then for my afternoon viva I was confident

Because I know my God will also help me.

So I went back my hostel, I had two hours lunch break before viva starts.

I spent nearly an hour reading d book of JOB.

Just random.

And was even more motivated.

Of course I did look through my altas and text book too.


Then later during exam,

I bet u could guess what happened.

It was also smooth and chilled.

I got the heart, rectus femoris muscle, ribs, pelvis, spleen, subscapularis…

Embryo I got sperm, fertilization, development of aortic arches, ovarian cycle…

Radio was a little weird, I got head and neck X-ray, which we stil haven’t learn,

Luckily I got to change the x-ray film. Haha!



All in all it was a pleasant viva practical exam.

All thanks to my awesome creator,

Wonderful counselor,

Great provider,

Faithful master,

And my best friend,

Jesus Christ.


All credit goes to YOU man…

Nice team work with had back there.

Cool.


(Some people say after you dissect, you won't feel like eating meat..but this is my bak-kut-teh..(",))
