I'm DONE with my clinical surgery exam. The exam I've been studying for since errrm forever?
I did well, less than I had expected bs el7amdillah, a huge burden was taken off.
My patient was a woman from Somalia.. I couldn't understand her well, she couldn't understand me well. She was tired and boy so was I!!
I couldn't have figured out what was wrong with her if the intern and our coordinator didn't tell me. It was atypical and difficult and at some point I felt like crying because I was really really tired and angry with the patient for not speaking Arabic good enough! You've lived here for TWENTY years! Then I felt bad for feeling angry (even though I didn't show it but I was burning inside) especially when she told me she had lost two sons.. I wanted to punch myself.
When I examined her I found nothing and again felt like crying so I BBMed the intern, who's extremely adorable and laafly.
"Ma ashoof.
Ma a3rf.
Mafi shay!!!!!"
So she came right away and helped me, I went out to the examiners, they asked me all the good and weird kinds of questions but I went out alive which is a good sign.
Of course I couldn't help but ask them how I did, though it's "against the rules" as I've once mentioned but I just had to! They said I was good.. I hope so :) keep your prayers comin'!
Then I went to lunch and coffee with my friends and the one and only Sous, whom the last and only time I saw was last summer. It was soo veryyy much fun! :D it had been long since I last enjoyed my time without thinking about an upcoming exam. Well I do have a final medicine exam next week, but I was in denial until the Exam Witch came to remind me (you know who you are!)
Ok.. now here's the best part!
Mini coffee flavor syrup! :-O
Why hadn't I known about it before is beyond me. I'm crazy about coffee flavors. I didn't know they had it for sale at Costa! It's again one of those things that every human being seems to know about except for me. I live in my own world as F always says to me. I was overly excited and clutching the box while each of my friends seemed cool and sophisticated and know-it-all-ish.
These pretty little bottles made my day :")
Now I have to go "organize" my medicine papers, notes, books and stuff. Get them out of the drawers, blow the dust off, make a schedule.. etc etc.
Translation: I have to go pretend to take a very long time organizing my medicine stuff until it's too late and then I can't really start studying so late. I have to sleep don't I?
PS, I tried the mint syrup and it tasted terrible. I guess I put too much lol.
