tuesday blues!

YAWN....
(not kid from PICU)

woke up earlier to research on some stuff.. gosh this whole studying business is really tiring. How do you spend your day in the hospital..and still be expected to come back home and study? not to mention do all the other normal things that people do like socialise, do housework, go shopping...

anyway i have decided that i am going to bake some stuff for the PICU stuff on thursday, coinciding with valentine's day. and if there are any leftovers (hopefully not) I will bring them to common program or something. I'm sure I can always count on my friends to eat up the cookies.

have a case presentation due tmr.. not sure how much detail to include. sigh. i'm so not good at convincing people with my vocal skills.

sometimes I look at the teeny babies in PICU and I wished my life was as simple as theirs. they just lay in bed and get nursed all day long. some of them are shooo cute, you'd hardly believe they have been ridden with illness. I have a really bad habit at the moment. It's called I-must-press-the-fontanelle-when-I-see-one syndrome. Thankfully PICU patients are well sedated on the M+M formula (midazolam & morphine) so I can happily indulge in my sick habituations.


[[A fontanelle is a anatomical feature on an infant's skull. Fontanelles are soft spots on a baby's head which, during birth, enable the bony plates of the skull to flex, allowing the child's head to pass through the birth canal. The ossification of the bones of the skull cause the fontanelles to close over by a child's second birthday. The closures eventually form the sutures of the neurocranium. Although there are the two anterior and posterior fontanelles, there are two more fontanelles of interest, the mastoid fontanelle, and the sphenoidal fontanelle.]]

alrighty. it's almost time to get ready for yet another day at the hospital. seeyaaaaaa.
