A Journey Beyond The Logical Mind

Salam to all.

Kamu diwajibkan berperang (untuk menentang pencerobohan) sedang peperangan itu ialah perkara yang kamu benci dan boleh jadi kamu benci kepada sesuatu padahal ia baik bagi kamu dan boleh jadi kamu suka kepada sesuatu padahal ia buruk bagi kamu. Dan (ingatlah), Allah jualah Yang mengetahui (semuanya itu), sedang kamu tidak mengetahuinya. (216)

Fighting is prescribed for you and ye dislike it. But it is possible that ye dislike a thing which is good for you, and that ye love a thing which is bad for you. But Allah knoweth and ye know not. (216)

Surah Al-Baqarah. 2:216.

There's a loooot of things in this world that we love but they're not good for us. Take facebooking for example. Yeah, it's excellent for networking with friends and all but if we spend too much time on it, what can we gain? Don't take it too hard, this is more of a reminder to the typist, haha..

List of things I don't like but I know it's good for me.

1. Washing clothes.
2. Doing homework.
3. Wake up early.
4. Climbing the stairs every evening because my lovely juniors pun sebok-sebok nak duduk casa.5. Put limit when socializing.
   

Salam to all.

That's the third time I set foot on Monash Sunway's ground. I've always liked that place, modern, neat and yeah, 'grand' -as Helma put it-.

So yeah, the interview.

Panel 2, 2.30 pm, 2 interviewers, both Malaysians, one lady, one man. Nice.

They asked me something like these (not in chronological order):

Part 1. (I didn't include my answers to some of the questions because I kinda forget what I said~ and because of 'kurang rajin' too. Not 'malas' okay? Just 'kurang rajin'.)

Tell me about yourself.
Why do you want to become a doctor?

Tell me about your co-curricular activities while you're in 2ndary school and taylors.
I participated in Young Entepreneur Club when I was in MRSM Langkawi.. We organised a lot of projects.. I learnt a lot from my involvement.. I have to work with local authorities, work with my teammates..

Do you get yourself involved in sports?
I started to join taekwondo since I'm in Taylors... I practiced hard.. got medal.. I also enjoyed archery.. I played with my friends at Sunway~

What are the qualities that doctors should have?
To me, a doctor needs to be objective. He or she should focus on the patient

Do you think you have that quality?
(dengan perasannya) Yeah, I believe I have those qualities..

Do you face any difficulty when moving from 2ndary school to college?
How do you cope with that?
Do you have a different strategy?

I'm going to ask a question about religion, are you okay with that?
Yeah sure.

Alright, are you comfortable when performing physical examination on the opposite gender?
Yes, Islam does put a limit that as a lady I cannot simply touch a person of the opposite gender. But I believe, as a doctor with knowledge to cure a person, that would be an exception, no matter what gender that person is...

What are the difficulties that doctors face on a day-to-day basis?
Doctors are always busy. How are you going to cope with that?

What qualities must a leader have?
A leader must listen to his teammates. He must be able to make his teammates work together harmoniously.. ...

What makes a good teammate?
What does your interest in business got to do with becoming a doctor?

Part 2.
The text given was about depression..

Summarise for me the text you've read.

Do you really think it's depression? <-- at this point I was like, oh oh. Is it really?
Yeah, from what I've read... I think the symptoms are that of depression..~

Does depression only affects adults?

Part 3.
The stimulus given was about Exothermic and Endothermic reaction.

Okay, explain to me about this.

(Although I'm glad to get that topic but at that time, my brain was like not functioning well. I keep repeating my answer like what la!)

Overall opinion:

1. I keep repeating my answer. Hish!
2. I didn't mention about any of my volunteering things. Did I lose points over there? Nevermind lah. Forget it.
3. I think I talk rubbish too much. Haih~
4. I didn't quite look into the interviewers eyes~

Next time, be more prepared!

p/s: Thanks for the birthday wishes ya! I really appreciate all of them! =)

Salam to all.

Why do you want Monash Sunway?
I feel it in my bones, so I will let it be known.. No matter where I roam this is home sweet home... wahahaha!


Five surgeons were taking a coffee break and were discussing their work. It was an interesting conversation.

* The first surgeon said, “I think accountants are the easiest to operate on. You open them up and everything inside is numbered.”

* The second replied, “I like to operate on electricians. You open them up and everything inside is color-coded.”

* The third added, “I think librarians are the easiest to operate on. you open them up and everything inside is in alphabetical order.”

* The fourth one boasted, “I like to operate on lawyers. They’re heartless, spineless, gutless, and their heads and their butts are interchangeable.”

* Fifth surgeon said, “I like Engineers. . . they always understand when you have a few parts left over at the end…”
