Whimsical Journey of My Life

When strolling over any of my social media. This end of year full of travelling and marriage pictures. And I could jus t have my mind wander while my body sit still on the night shift in emergency room or else waiting for the doctor to visit the ward as I've done my morning follow up of the patients.  I would never regret to choose this profession as this could make you more mature and have developed a great sense of patience. Dealing with various kind of people makes you grateful and at the same time for the sake of humanity you have to help any kind people regardles they are criminals. In which deep inside if you forget that you are a doctor and had pledged the hipporatic oath, why would you want to help that residivis who had stolen cell phone and wallet of the society and let the society beat them to death if the police officer didn't bring it to the emergency room in hospital in which I happen to be on the night duty in the middle of the night. Christmas night. While I ha...

Banyak masyarakat awam yang tidak terlalalu mengerti mengenai dunia kesehatan dan pembagian bidang-bidangnya menganggap bahwa dokter spesialis kulit itu hanyalah seputar kosmetik dan kecantikan. Terus jadi banyak yang bilang ke saya, jadi dr. Sp. KK aja enak kan nanti buka klinik kecantikan tuh lagi banyak dimana-mana. Well sebenarnya tidak sepenuhnya salah anggapan itu karena memang banyak sekali dokter lulusan spesialis Kulit dan Kelamin yang praktek membuka klinik kecantikan. Tapi mungkin yang mereka masyarakat awam tidak tahu adalah pendidikan yang ditempuh untuk menjadi dokter Sp. KK tersebut (residen dan termasuk koass nya yaitu yang nantinya akan menjadi dokter umum dan juga belajar mengenai kompetensi di Kulit Kelamin) sangat jauh dari "kecantikan" dan "kebersihan". Yah mungkin memang dokter Sp . KK somehow rata-rata memiliki kulit yang mulus dan bersih jadi sedap dipandang deh (ada seleksi wajah juga kayaknya ya kalo mau apply masuk ppds ini (?)) atau kare...

Well, it's been hectic months after the graduation I gotta do the KKN and Komuda and completing my research paper to fulfil all of the graduations requirement. I also have to move to get closer to the hospital so it was really tiring to move 4 years of your life into a smaller room :( But although I have a smaller room now, but I am happy that it has sink in the bathroom and also it has the kitchen! I cook almost everyday and try out many different recipe, it so much give you joy to eat everything that you want without having to spend too much. The problem was just it's hard to park my car sometimes because the area for car parking is limited and I rarely drive now except for the weekend or if I have an ouside rotation, instead I walk everyday to the hospital that very nearby. I wanna start liveing healthy now by walking, join the aerobic class once a week, cook the food by myself and read quran one jus everyday and also read news more often! Hopefully I could be istiqoma...

So approximately last month, 2nd-16th February 2015, I went to Croatia for an exchange program called Europe Asian Medical Student's Exchange Program (EAMSEP) which is an  Intercontinetal student exchange (Twinning project), organized between AMSA Indonesia (Asian Medical Students' Association) and FOSS MedRi (Fakultetski Odbor Svih Studenata Medicinskog fakulteta u Rijeci) who is a registered member of EMSA (European Medical Student's Association). Unlike the other exchange program which is held by AMSA, the AMSEP (Asian Medical Students' Exchange Program), this one is a bit special because it held between Europe and Asia, so it called EAMSEP and this one with Indonesia is the second EAMSEP after the first one between Malaysia and Lithuania. What also special about this program is that it last for 2 weeks, longer than the regular AMSEP which usually take only for a week. The activities during those two weeks covered   Knowledge, Friendship and Action which is  u n...

So if you read the tittle, it seems like a tittle of book if you may realize or if you might had visited the cartoon web over the internet, yap but the complete tittle suppose to be "Simple thinking about Blood type" but now I don't want to just think about blood type but also blood in general. Me and my friends had observed people and our close friend according to their blood type and the personality they showed based on the korean comic on the web which make me, until now, quite influence by that to judge people after getting to know them. I tend to categorize them according to their blood type and believe it or not, their personality of the same blood type group are indeed almost similar somehow. So I find out that really fascinating to explore. Recently, I just started my new semester in my medical school and we have this new class called clinical pathology where you basically learn about the laboratory skill and screening for patient, mostly included blood sc...

Ergggh I don't even know where to start because I have a lot to say since lots of things are going on these past month. It's really a good start this year for me since I've done many good and interesting activities although I'm aware that it's not a good start to open this year with natural disaster for Indonesia. We have to pray more then.. So yeah although I'm kinda sad because my mom keep saying that I don't really miss her that much so then I only coming home for a week and then go back to Semarang. But I try to explain to her that I think I can be more productive and maximized my time wisely here to do activities that have more benefit compare to if I only stay home. I feel that now, if I'm coming home I feel that everybody already have their own life, like my brother go to school, my dad go to work and my mom with her friends and what I can only do just follow her around to go out because that it's not that easy to arrange meeting to hang out...

So tonight is the announcement that I get into semifinalist of the Ambassador of Public Health of AMSA Indonesia 2013-2014 and I still got to do campaign through social media to make it yet this week is my mid semester test week, what should I do then? *sigh... Anyway, I want to share my essay theme so that you'll got some ideas for it! REPLACING A HABIT OF SMOKING AS EARLY AS POSSIBLE WITH CHEWING GUM      Lately, there are many reports about children who smoke in Indonesia such as the shocking toddler who even replace his milk with smoking. Indonesia with a population only about 230 million has a higher percentage of young smokers than any other country showed by higher prevalence among the adult smokers, ranks third in the world according to the number of smokers, after China and India, whose respective populations are more than one billion, according to the former head of Indonesia's Medical Association, Kartono Mohamad. Moreover based on the In...
