Why Medicine? - in 10 words
Eid Mubarak! 🌙 hope everyone has had a lovely day! ✨
Today’s the 7th day of Ramadan - hope the month is going well for everyone so far 🌙
Have you ever broken a bone? 🦴
#ad I know I talk about @Quizlet_UK quite a lot, but that’s because I use it a lot! Every week I put all the learning points from our TCD (Themed Case Discussion) cases into a question and answer format on to Quizlet and by the end of the week I have a complete study set on whatever the week’s cases were. ☺️
Ophthalmology, ENT, Neurology all done ✅ Now on to the next block!
These FriXion Pastel Highlighters from @pilotpenuk are really pretty and functional 🥰 The entire FriXion range of pens are erasable, so handy if you’re worried about putting pen to paper on something you don’t want to make mistakes on. I’m usually an ‘arrows everywhere’ type of girl when it comes to planning on paper, but I can see these pens being really useful for planning to easily switch around plans and erase cancelled events without making a mess.
We’ve had 2 weeks of neurology and now we’re on to 2 weeks of “special senses” which is Ophthalmology and ENT. I did enjoy the neurology content quite a bit, it’s a very problem-solving sort of speciality which I feel like I do enjoy! Can’t really say I enjoy neuroanatomy though, with all the different tracts and their pathways. Brings back haunting memories from second year. Can’t believe there was a point in time when I actually knew all that! 😂
I ordered some new fabric for embroidery and have added a tonne of new things I want to try to my Pinterest board. Before last week I hadn’t done it in ages, I was actually contemplating throwing out all my supplies not too long ago, glad I didn’t do that now! I definitely go through phases of enjoying things and when I’m enjoying doing something, I have a tendency hyperfixate on it (so expect to see a lot more embroidery) 😂
