BANGLE recipe

1-bangle mudde-bangle pieces with ragi mudde
2-bangleshake-bangle with milk
2-banglejuice-bangle with juice

various modes of suicidal methods u see among people here and get admitted in surgery.

p.s-
During post duty rounds our prof asks an inpatient "how did u consume these bangle pieces?"...she answers calmly "with mudde saar",myself and a pg were literally rofl there.

3/7

back to surgery now after anaesthesia....this minor posting shd have been a good relaxing period for us after med but unluckily it turned out to be quite the opposite.Daily9am-2pm[!] OT work + night duties made it sickening.Now that the new pgs were there we even lost the chance to learn intubation[tracheal] which was the only productive thing[atleast we can do it in casualty] possible to learn in anaes.More over the profs inside OT every now and then used to monitor us asking some stupid unnecessary theory qns which made it even more depressing[really hate them!].We do got chances to give spinal anaesthesia but to be frank its of no use practically anywhere else[atleast in casualty].Only thing positive was that i could study for my entrance quite a bit.

p.s-
out of 7 tries in giving spinal anaes i succeeded only in 3.way to emergency OT[hell to interns at night]

lazyness

have been too lazy these days..not getting enough motivation or interest to do anything..all i do is sleep or waste time online.
Bunked anesthesia today...really hate it...may be that am[interns] are not getting to learn anything productive and all we do in that OT is monitor the patients[which any layman can do] or just stand there looking at paralyzed patients.Just 2 more days to go and then have surgery.
Watched King kong movie...really a jawbreaker movie with good story,terrific graphics.Best part was the last scene where Jack black just comments "Oh no, it wasn't the airplanes. It was beauty killed the beast."!!

p.s-
have been listening to this song recently and i just love it..one of the few songs whose lyrics i really liked...laree choote from '140 ki last local" movie

Frost Nixon-4/5


Frost Nixon-A dramatic retelling of the post-Watergate television interviews between British talk-show host David Frost and former president Richard Nixon.
Simply loved it for its compelling storyline,great acting and for some fine direction[was selected as one of the best 10 movies of 2008 by AFI].....while watching it felt like am seeing an action movie.
p.s-
I rated it 9/10 in imdb which it truly deserves.

my weekend

2 movies[frost nixon and race to witch mountain]+sleep[obvious]+good food and sms chatting with friends..tht sums up my weekend!

fresh!!!

fresh intestine[ileum]...removed from a patient in emergency OT operated for perforation

doc or mechanic?

this is my 4th day in anesthesia and am already bored of this short posting...whole day u just stand there in OT and look at the surgeons do their job.
We interns do get chances [for giving spinal etc] and exposure wise its really good but frankly i feel this field is not for me where the work is just mechanical[like monitoring patients,push iv inj] and is wholly dependent on the surgeons with whom u have to work with.Moreover i enjoy talking to people and want to get into a clinical side where the interaction with people is more personal and satisfactory[though radiology is still an option wide open;)].
So now i have atleast one option less for my pg!!...

p.s-
thank u vyazz for the award..will be writing abt it in my next post:)

Enthusiasm

Act enthusiastic and you will be enthusiastic
-Dale Carnegie

i absolutely agree with this quote and even follow it so some extent[not possible always]...when ever bored or down or uninterested this little thing really lifts me up and lets me enjoy wht i do...its just another way of seeing a glass half full instead of half empty.Some may think its just another quote by a philosopher but to really know it just try it out once and feel the difference...

p.s-down with ge[gastroenteritis-loose stools]..hope i may make it for night duty tonight

totally enjoying[read relaxing] anaes postings now..its for 15 days[part of surgery]...after med am finding this heaven and hope i utilize it as much as possible.
Postings are for just half a day and after that am planning to study little bit and watch some good movies!!After being in hell for 45 days its time to realize what heaven is[anesthesia] and totally enjoy and cherish it!!:)
