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...
