  • I am now OFFICIALLY.........




    .........A THIRD YEAR MEDIC!

    YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!

    Finally I get to start clinicals in September! Scary but exciting! No more being stuck in the lecture hall 24/7!!!!!





    All glory be to God. Without Him, I am nothing!

    But this would also mean, this year would be my LAST summer holiday!
    No more 3 months break for the rest of my life after the next 3 months! SIGH.
    Which makes me think...why did I choose to be a medic? I would have graduated by next year!
    OH WELL...

    P/S : Going HOME. See you all soon! My nine months cravings would be fulfilled in 3 months!

     7) Since there is no time like the present, he thought it was time to present the present .                           

                                                                                                                            

     8) A bass was painted on the head of the bass drum.

     16) To help with planting, the farmer taught his sow to sow.

     20) How can I intimate this to my most intimate friend?

                                                                                                                            

     

    Let's face it - English is a crazy language!!

     

    There is no egg in eggplant, nor ham in hamburger; neither apple nor pine in pineapple.

    English muffins weren't invented in England or French fries in France.

    Sweetmeats are candies while sweetbreads, which aren't sweet, are meat.

    Boxing rings are square and a guinea pig is neither from Guinea nor is it a pig.           

                                                                                                                            

    And why is it that writers write but fingers don't fing, grocers don't groce and hammers don't ham?

    If the plural of tooth is teeth, why isn't the plural of booth, beeth?

    One goose, 2 geese. So one moose, 2 meese? One index, 2 indices?

    Doesn't it seem crazy that you can make amends but not one amend?

    If you have a bunch of odds and ends and get rid of all but one of them, what do you call it?                                                                              

                                                                                                                           

    If teachers taught, why didn't preachers praught?

    If a vegetarian eats vegetables, what does a humanitarian eat?      

    Sometimes I think all the English speakers should be committed to an asylum for the verbally insane.

    In what language do people recite at a play and play at a recital?

    Ship by truck and send cargo by ship?

    Have noses that run and feet that smell?

                                                                                                                            

    How can a slim chance and a fat chance be the same, while a wise man and a wise guy are opposites?

    You have to marvel at the unique lunacy of a language in which your house can burn up as it burns down, in which you fill in a form by filling it out and in which, an alarm goes off by going on.                                                           

                                                                                                                            

    English was invented by people, not computers, and it reflects the creativity of the human race, which, of course, is not a race at all.

    That is why, when the stars are out, they are visible, but when the lights are out, theyare invisible.                                                                                                            

                                                                                                                            

     PS. - Why doesn't 'Buick' rhyme with 'quick' ?   

     

    ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

     PART 2!!

                                                                    

                                                                                                                            There is a two-letter word that perhaps has more meanings than any other two-letter word, and that is 'UP.'            

                                                                                                                           

     It's easy to understand UP, meaning toward the sky or at the top of the list, but when we awaken in the morning, why do we wake UP ?

    At a meeting, why does a topic come UP ?

    Why do we speak UP and why are the officers UP for election and why is it UP to the secretary to write UP a report?                                                               

                                                                                                       

    We call UP our friends.

    And we use it to brighten UP a room, polish UP the silver.

    We warm UP the leftovers and clean UP the kitchen.

    We lock UP the house and some guys fix UP the old car.

     

    At other times the little word has real special  meaning.

    People stir UP trouble, line UP for tickets, work UP an appetite, and think UP excuses.

    To be dressed is one thing, but to be dressed UP is special.                                                                                

                                                                                                                            And this UP is confusing: A drain must be opened UP because it is stopped UP. We open UP a store in the morning but we close it UP at night.                                                                                                

     

    We seem to be pretty mixed UP about UP !

    To be knowledgeable about the proper uses of UP, look the word UP in the dictionary.

    In a desk-sized dictionary, it takes UP almost 1/4th of the page and can add UP to about thirty definitions.

    If you are UP to it, you might try building UP a list of the many ways UP is used.

    It will take UP a lot of your time, but if you don't give UP, you may wind UP with a hundred or more.

     

    When it threatens to rain, we say it is clouding UP . When the sun comes out we say it is clearing UP...                                                   

    When it rains, it wets the earth and often messes things UP.

    When it doesn't rain for awhile, things dry UP.                                                                        

     

    One could go on and on, but I'll wrap it UP, for now my time is UP, so........it is time to shut UP!

About Me

  • Just like a baby bird freshly hatched from it's egg... I've finally made it to one of the most prestigious medical schools in Britain. Currently at the bottom of the food chain, nowhere near actual doctor status. Years of even more hard work and exams stretched ahead. Seems like there is no light at the end of my tunnel YET. And here is where I keep my thoughts, experiences and randomness to help me keep striving on.

Chatboard (28)
