Nah, bahagian terakhir untuk muhasabah budak medik ni...

41. You don’t know why your handwriting has increased in size and incomprehensibility.

- semakin kecil n tergulung2 macam ulat gonggok ade la...

- kadang2, sejak berkawan dengan dot dot dot

49. You look at people’s hands and arms and wonder which vein would be a ‘good vein’ for venepuncture or cannulation.

- benar sekali. geram betul tengok vein yang timbul itu...

50. You wash your hands after meals and the loo using the 6-step technique.

- sejak mengetahui kepentingan 7-step in washing hand, saya sentiasa mengamalkannya

51. You’re secretly happy that the really smart guy stopped medical school and start complotting who next to eliminate. Just so the normal distribution skews to the left so you won’t fail.

52. You can tell what day it is from knowing which consultant is doing his ward round that day.

57. You can’t wait for weekends, so that you can catch up on your readings.

- naah~ qada' tido lagi best. pemalas betul, jangan tiru macam saya!

61. Your hair starts greying and falling out at the age of 21.

- that's why... jom gi buat hair treatment kat salun

62. You have a list of pathologies that you don't mind dying from. Definitely not cancer though.

Maido ari, jaa~
