of 1st OSCE story and coming OSCE exam

Salam Satu Malaysia.
Selamat Hari Malaysia.

weekend yang penuh dengan makan-makan.
tapi tak makin gundu pun.
sedih sikit kat situ.
I need to put some weight.

 hey, it's not that i'm not grateful that I'm skinny. but too skinny tak lawa okay?
*eleh macam la kalau tak skinny kau lawa Lisa oi? Boo besar-besar~

but as a medical student and I wanna practice a good lifestyle...
I want to balance out my BMI.
45kg with 158cm.
my BMI just fairly normal.
need to put more some weight. that's a mission!

tonight macam free sikit, sambil mesin kain (read: basuh kain lorh)
kejap lagi nak cuci lab coat yang berdaki tu.
HAHAHA! mentipu sangat tu berdaki..
takde lah. cuma nak feeling semangat sikit, minggu depan time final Respiratory Block,
I got OSCE.
ha ape tu OSCE?

Objective Structured Clinical Examination. itulah OSCE.
kalau among budak-budak medik mesti tahu.wajib tahu. berdosa kalau tak tahu.
dia macam exam praktikal la. kalau OSPE kena observe model, cadaver or slides microb/patho under microscope dalam lab/dissection hall..
tapi OSCE ni kena examine simulated patient and kena start dari history taking and report along the way you examine.

erm, katanya kali ni OSCE respiratory kena exam buat together with CVS examination and lymph nodes examination along the cervical area.
pehhhhh.
meraba orang lagi lah jawabnya hakuuuu~


nak ceritanya first time meraba dada orang during CVS examination (CVS stands for Cardiovascular Sisytem, which regard your heart mainly), untuk auscultation (checking chest area using stethoscope) and palpate (tekan-tekan dada untuk cari kedudukan jantung) meraba cari tulang rusuk patient, at first was a nightmare for me! hahaha nasib baik dada patient tu tak berbulu okay, kalau tak memang rasa macam bulu-bulu habis keluar tumbuh kat tangan aku nih haaa. <---- okay tak professional betul aku cakap macam ni.

but to tell you the truth, masa dia nak buka baju depan kitorang, which a group of 7-8 people at that time, when our clinical facilitator ask him to expose his chest, aku tunduk bawah.. arghhh aku pulak yang malu? HAHAHA!

session time tu with Dr. Wahid. He even ask each of us to palpate the patients chest, untuk tahu surface anatomy of the heart. okay sumpah malu, sumpah cuak nak pegang dada orang. dada adik lelaki sendiri tak pernah pegang, lagi pulak nak pegang dada lelaki lain. oh wahai encik suami, wahai encik seaman bakal suami, maafkan dinda yer, terpaksa pegang nak buat camne kan sebab nak kena belajar punnn. hahaha! nasib baik tak kantoi dengan patient tu tangan aku ni tak sejuk pun nak pegang dada dia, kalau tak confirm-confirm aku kantoi cuak nak pegang dada dia! HAHAHA

nak pegang patient pun bukan main simply pegang, ada manners. kena introduce diri sendiri dulu. kena minta izin. kena bagitahu dulu kat dia kita nak pegang dia kat bahagian mana, apa pergerakan kita nak minta dia buat so that dia rasa selesa. kalau patient perempuan, make sure kena ada chaperon or seorang perempuan kena temankan kalau yang nak memeriksa tu adalah doktor lelaki. itu basic okay.



me with Fudzail after the CST session, orang Kulim memang awesome. HAHAHA!

overall, the session went well. masa mula-mula je rasa awkward nak pegang, tapi lama-lama dah okay. patient pun dah selesa dengan kita. and I'm having trouble time tu pakai tudung susah nak masukkan stethoscope dalam tudung, terpaksa pinkan tudung ke depan instead of I pinned kat side by side bahu. teringat Prof Latiff cakap dalam kelas,

"budak-budak perempuan lepas ni bila clinical years nanti beli dan pakai tudung Ariani je, senang. tak payah nak cucuk-cucuk pin sana-sini bagai..."

HAHAHAHA! I burst into laugh. indeed, I got his point. memang mudah je kalau pakai tudung sarung nak masukkan stets dalam lubang telinga. doesn't necessary beli yang brand Ariani tu kan. tudung sarung yang biasa pun boleh. kalau tidak, mampus dah beratus-ratus habis la nak beli berhelai-helai.  -_____________-

for respiratory system and lymph nodes examination, takde nak kena raba-raba dada sangat. palpate mana yang patut, do some percussion. and ade la palpate bawah dagu+leher+tengkuk. geli okay. hahahah! tapi best.but of course sebelum buat kat orang, kita kena buat kat diri sendiri dulu.... :)

as a revision, I need to study this for my OSCE preparation.


this is official, I studied this for my CVS examination and I did exactly the same during the CST session .the doc inside the video is my lecturer and also currently is the CUCMS Dean of Faculty of Medicine, Prof 
Abdul Latiff Mohamad.
this is for respiratory examination. and I guess included the lymph nodes examination as well :)
all for now.
need to prepare for class tomorrow.
and oh ya, PBL tomorrow. need to be prepared as well.
wonder whose turn is going to be my group PBL facilitator?
Dear Tuesday, please be nice tomorrow okayh?
ciao~

pre-peri-post of Raya! :D

salam and greeting people.
I bet it is never too late to wish everyone Happy Eid Mubarak.
guess what, I hate when there too many things too tell yet I'm busy doing lots of thinggggsss??
*why there's so many THINGGS in my previous sentence? HAHAHA!

actually...I'm enjoying my Raya to the fullest, bake some cookies for my dearest family and future in laws...cooking for open house at home, changing my braces band to daring red, *hewhewhew :3, Raya cuti ends, proceed with the classes. the classes were too pack, haematology is getting on my nerves always, never be nice. and the mangsa?
of course my dearest seaman, He's my dearest punching bag. LOL

okay, to begin with.. I'll start chronologically from the Raya night.

#Raya eve
aha, my raya? it was splendid. but the journey to go back to Kedah a day before Raya strikes was entirely full of drama. to conclude, I'm actually almost get a mini heart-attack when there is no radio taxi/public transport i could call for me to go to the bus station from my house and nobody left at home since everyone has going back for raya, I'm the last person to leave the house, empty house side by side, and I'm desperately to look for people who are willing to send me to the bus station! but eventually thanks to my classmate, Hazim Onn who being my Raya savior. kalau tidak, memang bertakbirlahh aku sensorang kat rumah sewa ni tak balik rayaaa.huu sdeyyy~



Alhamdulillah, after 6 hour on the road, the traffic was quite smooth I reached home, safely and still sound at 3pm in the morning, was zombie-ing finding for my bed and sleep like a dead log and when I woke up during Fajr he texted me, as he always did on Raya day..

"Jangan lupa mandi sunat raya tau budak comot. :)"
"Ok la berlemoihhhhhh~"


#1st day of Raya, going back to Perak. 

#2nd day of Raya, dash off to Penang.

#3rd day, went to visit my grand uncle who were warded in Hospital Raja Permaisuri Bainun, Ipoh :)

#4th day, back to Kedah. this is one of the best thing ever happen this Eid. he came to my house, to meet my dad :)
the moment he came into my house, my dad and him talked bout Navy things. let me remind you, non stop talking and this is the first time they met! and some of the terms that I didn't familiar with, including divers and bla.. bla.. bla.. IDK what it is, but to listen to their conversation just pleased me as it seems. I'm quite surprised cuz Ayah won't simply talk with someone unless they've got something in common to talk with. and I guess, they've found out the similarities and I rate it... NOT BAD.

I saw he flipped through the photo album that Ayah showed him. pictures when he's still in Navy service sailing to Italy about 15 years ago. 
senyum jelah menengok Ayah dengan dia bersembang that day, rasa macam boleh masuk je. dia pun melayannn jerrr~ :P *macam terpaksa sebab ayah macam teruja bersembang. hahaha!

insyaAllah, hopefully, more to come. :)


#5th day, the making of hazelnut buttercookies. 355 pieces! these are for my future in laws family. :) kak long request sebab cakap sedap! hihihi~






#6th day, went back to MRSM Kubang Pasu, looking for beloved and lovely teachers. what a day.

#7th day, cooking for open house. mee kari. heww. and my hazelnut buttercookies are cleared! wuuuu~

#8th day, went to Sg Petani Orthodontic Clinic to see my dentist.
 blue band is transformed to be daring red... andd... ta-daaaa!

then straight away going back to land of Selangor. :)



#a week after raya story
it is not cool to know that 60 out of the 86 students failed the Mid Course Haematology held on the last day before we going back for Raya holiday..indeeeddddddd, this course is a bit challenging * a lottt actuallyyy. ohh nooo Lisa is exaggerating!, packed lecture, hard to understand and I mistakenly take Haematology for granted since its only a 3week course, and phewww...as expected, I'm one of the failure listed. :/ moral down satu hariiiiii. lepastu episod emo dengan seaman pun bermulaaaa~

kesian everytime aku nak emo je mesti dia jadi punching bag. hahaha!
then he said 
" takpaaa, final pulun study sampai lebam okay? kalau boleh buat saya belanja makan aiskrim BR. nak?" hewhewhew :3
okay nak, satu pint punya. boleh?
nak tibai sensoranggg~ kuikuikui tamak.
lepastu gemokkk pun sensoranggg.kbai.


then goes my Final Course Haematology last Thursday.
indeed I hate this week cuz I have to struggle myself studying like the world is going to end tomorrow... okay, exaggerating againnn~ -_____________- cuz usually we'll be having exams on Friday but since the national Day falls on Friday, Friday is off. the exam is on Thursday. totally hate it. 
urghhhh. done.

then last but not least, on 31st of August,
Happy 55th Independence Day of Malaysia! :D

Terima Kasih Perwiraku!

  
let this picture speaks a thousand words. :)

okay, that's all for now. 
gotta geared up soon cuz my seaman is coming to pick me for a family function.
bye peeps!
have a nice weekend people!

haematology love-hate

salam and greeting readers, I really wanna update my blog since last weekend, but life is just too busy to handle with and to be settled, cuz I just moved into a new house.well aware of it, I'll just briefly write.

my journey as a 2nd year MBBS student of CUCMS has just started last week. Alhamdulillah. starting with Haematology block, in which I'll be dealing stuff regarding blood disorders like leukeamia, thalassemia, haemophilia and anaemia, *just to name a few. since it is only a 3week course, and isn't that easy, the lectures are quite packed. Incoming the Clinical Skills Training, Pengajian Islam as well as I'll be joining Wataniah in this sem as my extra co-curricular activities. herm, still asking for opinion but seems like Wataniah is the only option left, other than joining the Young MERCY *in which i didn't have interest in it that much.

this week is the 2nd week of Haematology, and a mid-course assessment on Friday which is today,*I had my exam this morning before we're going for our Raya break. all I can say.. I've done my best and let God do the rest.

Imagine... I've been spending half of my fasting month at home, and the new semester re-open just in the middle of this Holy month, have to go back to college for two weeks, *in which I'm very half-hearted to come back...sit for the mid-course exam while everyone is busying themselves to prepare for Raya, and I can only go back to my hometown on the Raya eve, a night before Raya strikes. what do you expect?

Pathetic.

being a medical student ain't that easy.
or is it being me ain't that easy?

I guess, I'll go for the second one.


anyhow...
he's back from Alpha Routine.
48 days deployment.
for a starter, for a 1st timer.
I'm proud of myself I've come until this far.
at least, it prepares me for far more worst condition in the future.
yeah.. it awaits me.
I guess he prepares me well not to pampered me too much of lots of spending time together, and thus, when he's away.. I didn't feel lost that much. I survived.
plus I believe in one quote ; distance only makes your heart grow fonder.
hey You, thank you. (:


I had an ifthar with him today. before he goes back to his hometown for Raya break.
just a few hours, and splendidly I treasure and try not to miss out any second or any moment of it.
I miss him so much.
while passing by the PICC (Putrajaya International Convention Centre), I said

- nanti saya grad kat sini la.
- bila?
- somewhere end of 2016.
- nak saya datang ke?
-*nodded*
- saya dah naik kapal mungkin time tu...

herm. what a price to pay.

up until today, I don't know why. sometimes. I just can't have the life like the other normal girls.
especially when I'm already stuck in a Navy-Medical Student relationship.
tough man.
it's been always like

-cuti berselisih.
-dia free, aku pulak exam.
-dia busy training, aku pulak free goyang kaki.
-i don't have much time to bergayut, or borak berjam-jam on the phone like the other always did. cuz sometimes i will feel rasa bersalah bila masa study aku guna untuk bergayut, or masa tu aku boleh buat something yang lebih berfaedah.
- and thank God, he hates Skype soo much! haha! <--- time saver!

even for my Mid-course assessment ni, punya laaa dilemma nak decide, nak keluar dengan dia tu kejappp je. hati malaikat cakap kena balik cepat-cepat sebab aku nak balik study, and even during the iftaar, makan depan dia aku selak notes. macam biasa. hati syaithon cakap, nak stay lama lagi sebab lama tak jumpaaaa.

but I rather choose the first opt. and even he understand me wanna study for the exam. :)

ironically, no matter what happen.I choose to stay. not to leave him.
cuz for me, I'll never give up or surrender until at least my suffering is paid off.
God fate?
yeah I decide, and Allah let it happen.


until when? I don't know. I'll rest my case to God.


I miss home now. seriously.
to all readers, Happy Eidulfitri.
may all of you have the best Eid with your family and your loved ones.

bye peeps.
:)

iftaar recipe- prawn thermidor

salam Ramadhan ke-14.
haa macam I dah janji semalam, today nak bg resipi yang aku dah try sepanjang ramadhan utk berbuka.
semua biasa-biasa je mcm orang lain buat.
but this one, paling ramai orang tanya resipi macam mana nak buat.
actually, tgk rupa mcam kelas kat hotel2 je punya serving, *pehh perasann,hentikan lisa*
HAHAH... ok abaikan ayat itu. takde, nak katanya...
resipi ni kira macam moderned version of tauhu sumbat.
this is tauhu based food.
resipi asal my own aunt yg bagi, 'tauhu tulip' dia letak nama.
but for me myself, since resipe tu aku ubah sikti2 sebab tauhu yang siap digoreng utk letak dlm mee kari tu aku tak beli, sebab Chinese made and I wasn't that sure bout its halal, so aku guna tahu biasa jer ganti tauhu tu.
so dari tauhu tulip dh jadi macam bentuk bunga teratai je. hahah
and aku pun ade buat a few adjustment sikit to the filling, and aku nak patenkan resipi ni dgn nama baru..
PRAWN THERMIDOR.
apesal thermidor?
sebab ni inspirasi dari crab thermidor yang aku makan kt restoren feveret aku kat Cyberjaya yang rupa lebih kurang macam prawn thermidor aku ni.

so here goes the recipe:


PRAWN THERMIDOR

6 biji tauhu 
50g isi ayam-dicincang
50g isi udang-dicincang
lada hitam- dikisar
1 sudu kecil serbuk kari
1 sudu kecil serbuk cili
1biji telur
1 sudu besar tepung jagung
garam secukup rasa 
minyak untuk menggoreng


cara-cara membuatnya:

1. panaskan minyak, potong tauhu yang petak tu kepada dua bahagian secara menyilang. (so you'll get bentuk segitiga) goreng tauhu sehingga garing keemasan. angkat, dan sejukkan.
2. tauhu yang dah disejukkan tu, di korek isinya dan himpun dalam satu bekas. jangan buang,sebab nanti akan digunakan untuk buat inti.
3. kulit tauhu yang dah dikorek isinya tu, terbalikkan. (the side yg ada isi tauhu tu kat luar, and the side yg goreng kuning keemasan tu kat dalam). then you'll get bentuk cup.
3.  hancurkan isi tauhu. in this case, saya ramas pakai tangan je.
4.isi udang dan ayam yang dah dicincang sebentar td, cmpurkan dengan isi tauhu tadi.
5. masukkan serbuk kari, serbuk cili, lada hitam dan garam. gaul sebati.
6. inti yang dah sebati digaul tu dimasukkan kedalam kulit tauhu yang dah jadi cup tadi.
7.sumbat padat-padat.
8. panaskan minyak. telangkupkan cup tu semasa masukkan dalam kuali untuk menggoreng.
9. goreng sehingga warna bertukar menjadi warna keemasan.
10. siap untuk dihidang.




SELAMAT MENCUBA!

raya cookies fever recipe!

salam peeps.

mesti wondering kan pesal lah doc lisa yg schumel ni buat biskut raya awal sangat, while actually. my class is scheduled to be started on 7/8 and only malam raya nanti baru balik rumah for cuti raya, mana nak sempat buat biskut raya dah kan.so sementara sill ada kt rumah ni, baik gunakan masa yang ada, dari ai membuta xsedar diri sepanjang hari  untuk buat biskut raya. lagi pun kesian lahh kat my Mom yang sensorang bersilat nak buat kuih raya kan. thus, I helped her out to make 2 types of biskut raya. choc-based of course. cuz I am a choc lover!

prinsip aku memasak senang je, asal aku rasa sedap and aku suka makan, I'll do it. tak kiralah sesusah mana pun benda tu nak jadi. complicated ker, rumit ke, letak tepi. asal dapat pe yang aku nak makan! xde nyusah orang and aku puas hati bila buat sendiri dapat makan ulang-ulang kali tambah. haa untungkan bila boleh masak or buat something tu on your own? heheh

so semalam bake out 2 cookies semalaman. Cadburry Chocoflakes and Hazelnut Buttercookies! haa tempted tak dengar nama cookies tu? sila cakap anda TEMPTED.  hahaha! here now, aku nak share recipe how to do these cookies sebab some of my friend do ask bout the recipe :)


HAZELNUT BUTTERCOOKIES

you need:

250g butter (buttercup sebijik tu)
160g brown sugar
340g all purposed flour
70g corn starch (tepung jagung)
100g hazelnut (crashed)
70g chocolate chips
a pinch of salt
a pinch of soda bicarbonate

how to do:
1. mix the butter with the brown sugar
2. put the flour and corn starch
3. put in hazelnut together with chocolate chips, salt and soda bicarbonate
4. shape the cookies by using hands.
5. bake the cookies for 10-15minutes in heated oven 180◦C

*sebenarnya piping choc atas cookies tu sendiri punya materpiece, nak buat takpe, xnak ikut suke..sebab ada choc lebih utk bagi lebih menarik, xde laa dull sangat biskut tu kan..  :)

tapi kalau nak buat mcm resipi sayer nih, tunggu biskut tu dah betul-betul sejuk dulu(semalaman pun takpe) then susun atas redai, pipe la ikut suka hati. hehehe~
estimation : dapat 112 biji utk satu adunan


CADBURRY CHOCOFLAKES

you need:

450g cornflakes
450g cooking chocolate
a bar of Cadburry chocolate (kalau nak tukar pakai coklat lain pun boleh juga)
papercup
colorful beads as decoration (beads? pergh habis tinggi vocab nih LOL)

how to do it:
1. melt the chocolates (Cadburry+cooking choc) using double boil method.
(double boil = masukkan coklat dalam satu periuk, then masukkan periuk tu dalam satu periuk air then heat atas dapur sampailah coklat tu cair)
2. pour in the cornflakes until sebati.
 3.put into the papercup and tabur manik-manik colorful tu.

*note: tak payah bakar sebab nanti choc tu keras and sejuk sendiri. wee~
estimation : dapat 125 biji utk satu adunan

HOYEAH! DAH SIAP DUA JENIS BISKUT RAYA! :D

SELAMAT MENCUBA!



*P/S:  untuk resipi iftaar yang aku dah try sepanjang ramadhan ni (walaupun tak banyak mana), I'll update in next post ya! :D
