trying to stay productive so bad >.<

but I'm getting there...

Today I'll go study in the library, then I'll take part in a study for one of my psychology courses and finally in the evening I have schedualed a dance class with one of the most famous dance teachers in my country. Hope it will turn out good :3

“I’ll be fine i just need to uhhhhhhh idk kill” but like…what if i did haha

#my stuff #dear diary and the several thousand mfs who can see it. Despite arguably good academic performance today feels like a bad day #bc i skipped lab to take a nap #and i feel lonely and incapable of connecting more than superficially with my classmates #like i can talk to them and i do and we get along well but i never…hang out w em #or at least not as much as they seem to without me #it’s not a malicious thing i think a huge part of it is groups of ppl living or working in the same space #and i’m in a different lab building than a lot of ppl #idk…struggling to find anything that sparks joy. unable to see the future with optimism #it’s just day after day of Job where i’ll beat myself up on weekends if i don’t do Even More Work #bc that’s the nature of grad school. always homework or literature review to do like i give a shit abt the latter #i don’t care what other people are doing i don’t wanna obsessively comb through journals to make sure i’m doing Brand New Shit #i want it to stop #i don’t want to read anymore. i don’t wanna have to worry about my job outside of work.#i want to cry and scream and #like i don’t wanna quit after i worked so hard to get here #i don’t wanna wuss out #but i’m always tired. i’m never rested or relaxed or truly enjoying myself #why is this only hard for me…how tf is everyone else able to read and remember and understand this much??#like yeah maybe i should be on adhd meds but those are fuckin spensive and a pain in the ass to get #i’m tired of being tough #i want to curl into a ball and be told it’s going to be okay and that i can rest and have it not be a lie or a half measure

8:40 AM

Hello,

I have been focusing on my diet and health these days. I have always been a bit of breakfast enthusiast all my life, always creating something for myself, and these days I am into breakfast sandwiches.

I would also like to announce that I am going to explore a bit with something called a 'Dopamine Detox'. I feel like the constant stimulation in this era of internet and technology, and entertainment being only a touch away at all times, dumbs us down. So I need that cleanse to take control. I will be updating here a week later, hopefully.

Also, here's a poem I wrote. It's called ‘I wake up to pretend.’

Enjoy!

I wake up,

take a moment to compose,

and smile.

Count my blessings,

make my bed,

do it all on time.

Pretend

like I wasn't just nudged out of slumber

by the same nightmare

that is my guest

each night.

I wake up to pretend,

to live another day,

and say I am fine.

I wake up to pretend,

the trees make me happy

(which they do),

the air brings me life

(which it does),

and the is day bright

(which it is);

and the gasps for life

from last night

do not exist.

I wake up to pretend,

to live another day,

and say I am fine.

I wake up to pretend,

to put on a show

and walk to move forward.

But my thoughts catch up

in silhouettes,

and small hushed tones.

I make my way into the kitchen

slice tomatoes,

and celebrate, the eggs turned out alright.

That's a win!

Spread the cheese,

thank for the bread,

eat an early meal.

The clock strikes nine

and I pretend I am fine.

Like the sharp pain in my chest does not exist,

I pretend.

Like the world isn't moving on without me

and if it is,

I will catch up.

And I pretend,

I do not pity myself.

Reclaim, renew, reinvent.

Like all that I can't control

Isn't whittling into my chest a hole.

And so,

I pretend until the masks fall off

at midnight.

The horses turn into mice,

the carriage fails me halfway,

I trip over a pumpkin vine

and break into a cry.

The clock strikes twelve and the dark comes alive.

I get up and pace,

to make up my mind

to wake up,

live another day

and pretend

I am fine.

Officially on winter break! I’ll be starting a transition to clinicals course as soon as break ends but for now I’m going to enjoy myself 🥳 I’m flying back home and won’t even be thinking about school until I head back to NY. The first couple days of break have just been lazing around, watching netflix, and hanging out with friends.

surgery week 5&6 /6: acute care service (general surgery)

this elective marks the last two weeks of surgery (& the hardest two weeks of the rotation)!! 🥳🥳 acute care service is a branch within general surgery, and essentially deals with all the emergencies of general surgery, like appendicitis, mesenteric ischemia, and bowel perforations. it’s known for being a very demanding week - I personally worked from 5:45am - 6pm almost every day not including the 24-28 hour call shifts.

i was genuinely surprised by how much i enjoyed gen surg!! since it’s known for the horrible hours, i was expecting to really hate my life, but i had a lot of fun and learned alot. first of all, my team was so lovely, the gen surg residents were quite nice and understanding, and the off-service residents were amazing. one of the off service residents i worked with on urology, so i was already comfortable with him. so baseline i felt a part of the team, and supported by my residents. i think also because gen surg relies on med students, i felt like i was actually being helpful and less of a burden/nuisance to teach. it was nice to come into the hospital and actually feel like my presence was necessary yk?

second of all, i think i really enjoyed the actual medicine aspect of gen surg. the disease process made sense to me and the surgeries were logical solutions to the diseases. the patient population was also very diverse, and they would operate on young people in their 20s and older people in their 90s, and honestly, they all recovered quite well from surgery. it was to see the patients come into the hospital super sick, but leave walking, talking and smiling.

lastly, the call was definitely bad but it helped me appreciate how gen surg is needed. essentially any surgical issue could be solved by gen surg & (i personally think) it’s one of the core specialties needed to keep a hospital running. i remember for one case, there was a bladder rupture and my residents weren’t sure if urology was going to come in (because they do home call) but they weren’t especially worried because they could also fix the bladder themselves. i think that’s amazing!!! they just have the skills to fix a large portion of the organs in the peritoneum!!!

ANYWAYS LOL this was a long post, but i just have a lot to say about gen surg. <333

xoxo alicia

Yesterday I was pretty satisfied with how much work I got done. I was really tired but I got myself through the day :)

Today I'll visit my grandpa in the hospital, so I won't have much time to study. Nevertheless I'll study one lecture right now and I hope that I'll get three more done in the evening.

Life has been hard but good lately [ 4/5 <3 ]

I just hope teachers of south east asian regions become more empathetic and kind hearted towards their students. Specially in med school. I mean,okay,not every course is everyone's cup of tea and there's no end of learning. You can always learn new and old things. There's always a chance to recapitulate.

I feel so dumb and idiot after today's opthalmology class. I don't know what to say.. Humiliation in front of the whole class is something...How to put that. Maybe something that asian teachers need not do and improve themselves in this part ig. Im just feeling sad and wayy devastated. Almost in tears. Ik i need to put more efforts. Of course that's my fault though.

[JUNE 14, 2023 - 1:23 PM]

Today is the last day of my first forty-day challenge, and the first of a another one (14 June - 24 June, 2023).

So the past four months have been a real challenge for me and we have had a bit of a struggle, and a difficult time. Which is why I have decided to go reputation era. Yes, you read that right. Your girl's going to work on self development these forty days, along with being productive and staying consistent. All of which is a part of the self development process. We're going to to do study blocks, catch up on our reading challenge, do skin care, take care of our health, and a lot more. It's forty days of being dedicated. Here we go. Godspeed.

DAY 0/40
