It's been officially four months since we last met
each other. Out of boredom, I have decided to share with all of you my
very ( ahem...) 'cool' life here.
Things are pretty good now
when compared to the first day I stepped foot on Salem, ( I remembered
some cigarette brand-SALEM! cool serene place with mountains..but THIS
SALEM was completely the opposite!)
Anyway, I adapt to places well and
I think I'm a much stronger person now.
2 days ago, I was
admitted into the hospital. I had AGE- acute gastro enteritis or
something like that. Since last Sunday I have been purging and
visiting the toilet for more than 20 times per day! I had to go to the
hospital to replace my body fluids lost.
The good doctor
ordered an intravenous infusion of 5% dextrose for me. I was all alone
at the hospital since my buddies had classes. Even though being afraid
of needles ( needle phobia ), i was quite surprised that I did not shed
a single tear throughout the whole 2 hours!! The tears only started
flowing when i called mum to relate my predicament.
Had to tell her...just in case ..and i need to hear her reassuring voice cos i was getting lonely and scare.
I seriously have never gone through anything like that before... not in a foreign land okay! =)
Well,
I'm still not much better. I'm still passing out' green watery thingy'
from my poor anus and my legs are becoming very wobbly lately. But, I'm
fine. I am still able to play badminton with the guys at night
and disturb kamini in class. =) teachers here are crazy and i meant
that!
there is a lecturer who teaches us physiology. he's a
complete crap. he told us that he will scold his wife like a mad dog if
she talks to him in public and asked all the guys not to put their
wives and children first. he scolded us-females for talking to the
boys and reprimanded me terribly in front of the whole class when he
caught me talking with a guy. how crazy is that. seriously, he's a
lunatic.
Caveman?????Hopefully i will try to flow along with him. You
see i dont want to get on his bad book!
he thinks that he's
greater than God. he claims that no one in the world is smarter than
him.
I mean, how nutty can a person get! he's just bloody crazy! Or
maybe he's trying to impress us...
lessons are getting tougher
by the minute, if you think that Indian standard is low, you are so
wrong. we have to study many other excessive things that dentistry
don't require. and in our second week,
we visited the 'tomb'. It was
filled with bodies all over. and there were cans and tongs of brains,
eyeballs, lungs, kidneys, intestines, and many other disgusting things.
Shouldn't use the word disgusting but they're "geli"
Our
anatomy class is in the Anatomy Room. The table that we write on is
also the same table used to place the dead body.. how eewwwie.
During
the first week, It was terrifying to even enter the room. I wanted to
puke a few times. But after that, things got better. Now, it's like...
hmm... we hve gotten used to the smell. How cool is that!! think about
it!!!
=)
I seriously think Mr.perumal rocks!
a) He's
really funny without needing to work his way round us
b) He talks with
me in Tamil.
c) He is the first teacher that took our noisy group to
visit the "kingdom of dead bodies'' !!
I pitied him however.... Having
a group that consists of me, ursha, kamini, roshiny and suyin is the
worst thing a teacher could ever ask for. However, he is a really good
teacher. Always helping us up in everything that we do. That is why,
he's my favorite anatomy asst prof.. =)and he's only 28 yrs old, wink
wink...
